David Harbour has great appreciation for his Stranger Things character alongside the many fans who also love Hopper, but the actor is ready to be seen as someone who’s so much more than his breakthrough role.Harbour is a veteran of the screen, appearing in various movies and TV shows since the 1990s, but he might be best known for playing Jim Hopper in the hit Netflix series Stranger Things. Following the show’s instant and immense success with the debut of its first season in 2016, Harbour has become very closely associated with the character. In a new interview with Insider, the actor addressed how he understands how fans shouting his character’s name at him in public comes from a place of love, but he wants people to get to the point where they see him not as Hopper, but as David Harbour.”The first year of Stranger Things, I remember having a discussion with a publicist and her saying, ‘Maybe you don’t want to be associated with the show so much,’ and I was like, ‘Why? I love this show. I love the character,'” Harbour recalled of first accepting the role, later realizing what it was he’d been warned about. “I do love the show. And I do love the character. But I don’t want to be just that character. I don’t want to be just that guy.”RELATED: Stranger Things’ David Harbour Debunks His Own ‘Crazy’ Joyce/Hopper Theory
