How Much Of Vecna Is CGI (& How Much Is Practical Effects)?
Stranger Things season 4 introduced its most dangerous villain to date: Vecna, who used to be Henry Creel/001 before Eleven sent him into another dimension. Vecna has a very specific look that fits with the one of the Upside Down, but how much of him is CGI and how much is practical effects? After a long wait due to various delays as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, Stranger Things returned with its highly anticipated season 4, which not only answered the biggest questions left by season 3 but also revealed some of the Upside Down’s biggest secrets.
Stranger Things season 3 left the audience with various cliffhangers, such as Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) losing her powers and Jim Hopper (David Harbour) supposedly dying, so by the time season 4 began, the main characters were scattered across three locations: Hawkins, California (as the Byers and Eleven moved out), and Russia, where Hopper was imprisoned. While the ones in Russia found a way out of prison and the country while also fighting a Demogorgon and the group in California went after Eleven, who was taken by Dr. Owens (Paul Reiser) and Dr. Brenner (Matthew Modine) to help her regain her powers, the Hawkins crew tried to solve a mysterious wave of murders that turned out to be connected to the Upside Down through Henry Creel/001/Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower).
