Strange things star Dacre Montgomery has credited Hugh Jackman for making him a star.
The 27-year-old actor, who rose to fame playing Billy Hargrove in the Netflix sci-fi series, says The Greatest Show man star is his 'role model' and has revealed how an unexpected phone call from the Oscar winner changed his life.
'Randomly during the pandemic I had this missed call from an American number so I left a voice message and it was Hugh Jackman,' he told the Daily Telegraph.

'He’ll make time even after finishing a show on Broadway,' he added. 'He’ll ring at 10pm at night and be like, "Here’s what I think you should do."'
Montgomery said Jackman is the perfect 'modern-day role model for men' and he hopes to pass on the same wisdom.
Montgomery is in Sydney to attend the GQ Men of the Year awards in association with BOSS.
