Joe Keery will shave his head if castmate David Harbour snags a Golden Globe

It's a hairy situation for the Stranger Things cast as awards season sets in.

Actor Joe Keery, who plays Steve Harrington on the Netflix series, said in an Instagram comment earlier this week that he'll have his head shaved by the show's creators, Matt and Ross Duffer, if his castmate David Harbour snags a Golden Globe next month for his portrayal of Police Chief Jim Hopper on the hit show.

The nominations for the Golden Globe were announced earlier this week, with Harbour getting the nod in the category for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Series, Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television.

Harbour, 42, subsequently took to Instagram to express his graciousness over the prestigious accolade, writing, 'I tip my hat to you @goldenglobes for the nomination. My Christmas present came early this year. You got me feeling all the holiday feels.'

Keery, 25, responded to Harbour that 'if you win David the Duffer’s get to shave my head,' referring to the program's twin showrunners.

In the category, Harbour is pitted against actors Alfred Molina (Feud), Alexander Skarsgard (Big Little Lies), David Thewlis (Fargo) and Christian Slater (Mr. Robot).

Harbour, who also received an Emmy nomination this year for his role as the lawman on the smash-hit show, said the Duffers breathed new life into his acting career, as he was contemplating retirement after NBC canceled his show State of Affairs in May of 2015.

'I got the Stranger Things script like a week before' the cancellation, he told the Los Angeles Times this past June. 'I really had this moment where I’m like, "I’m done."

'My neuroses is very sophisticated: I was like, "I am done. Hollywood is done with David Harbour. They are finished."'

Harbour said he was skeptical even when 'these North Carolina Duffer brother dudes sent me the script' and said 'they were really interested in' him.

'I was like, "This is a lead in Netflix, there’s no way I’m going to get it. This is amazing. There’s no way." And the script was so beautiful, well-written, sweet, fun and exciting,' he said.

Harbour, who's been seen in films such as Brokeback Mountain, The Green Hornet and Suicide Squad, said things turned around seamlessly following his audition for the program. He revealed to the newspaper: 'I went in, read one scene and signed on very early.'

We'll see if Keery's mane is endangered when the Golden Globes air on NBC on Sunday, January 7, with Seth Meyers hosting.
