Jamie Campbell Bower brought a few unusual souvenirs to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, showing off prosthetics from two of television's biggest fantasy franchises.

During his October 28 appearance, the actor discussed his experiences playing the terrifying Vecna in Netflix's Stranger Things and joining the world of Middle-earth in Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

One of the interview's highlights involved Bower displaying pieces from his elaborate costumes, including Vecna's distinctive hand and the pointed elf ears associated with his Rings of Power character.

The conversation also explored the enormous fan interest surrounding Stranger Things, including the online theory known as Conformity Gate, which continued generating discussion after the series concluded.

Bower also recalled performing a DJ set at San Diego Comic-Con, offering another glimpse of his creative interests beyond acting.

Of course, the interview wasn't entirely about fantasy television. In one particularly unexpected moment, Bower ended up smelling host Jimmy Fallon, adding an amusingly bizarre twist to their conversation.

Bower's transformation into Vecna required extensive prosthetic makeup, helping create one of the most recognisable villains in modern television. His subsequent role as Celeborn in The Rings of Power presents a striking contrast, moving from the darkness of the Upside Down to Tolkien's elven world.

Combining behind-the-scenes stories, fan discussions and playful humour, the interview offers an entertaining look at the actor behind two very different fantasy characters.
