After winning global acclaim for playing troubled heartthrob Billy on the hit Netflix series, Stranger Things, WAAPA graduate Dacre Montgomery is now turning the spotlight on his home state of WA.

Montgomery’s directorial debut, The Engagement Party, has commenced filming in the State’s South West, before the production will move to Perth.

“I’m thrilled to be back here in WA to direct my debut feature ... (and) I feel ready to make something special,” Montgomery said.

Starring Montgomery opposite Lily Sullivan (Evil Dead Rise), Abbey Lee (Mad Max: Fury Road) and Arlo Green (M3GAN), The Engagement Party tells the story of four friends who reunite on a secluded island, only to have conflicting memories of a past incident threaten to tear their relationships apart.
