Joe Keery is clearly ready to retire the dependable babysitter-savior aura that defined Steve Harrington. Fresh off the cultural juggernaut of Stranger Things, Keery pivots sharply by boarding the Cold Storage train. The unsettling character posters announce a thrilling, deliberately off-kilter new chapter.

Exclusive character posters for Cold Storage reveal Joe Keery as Teacake, framed as an uneasy Employee of the Month. His confused expression sits behind glass, overtaken by creeping green plant branches. The image immediately signals corporate irony colliding with sci-fi horror.

“THEIR SHIFT HAS HIT THE FAN,” appears above the frame, functioning as both slogan and warning. The tagline underscores Teacake’s escalating nightmare inside a self-storage facility. This is where he joins Naomi, played by Georgina Campbell, and a former NASA operative portrayed by Liam Neeson.

Meanwhile, the companion poster featuring Georgina Campbell deepens the tension. Naomi stares into the distance with cautious calculation rather than panic, the paired visuals suggest a story that rapidly unravels control as a mutating fungus spreads.

Seeing Keery as Teacake, further amplifies the excitement fans have for his future projects.

What is Joe Keery plotting for his next career chapter?

Joe Keery currently has no officially announced acting commitments beyond Cold Storage. Instead, his immediate calendar is dominated by music under his Djo moniker. The shift highlights a deliberate pause from screen work rather than a lack of momentum.

In March 2026, Djo launches a South America and Mexico tour, including Festival Estéreo Picnic in Bogotá and Lollapalooza Brasil in São Paulo. Additional stops include Mexico City and Guadalajara, followed by a summer appearance at Forwards Festival in Bristol alongside Lorde.

As for Marvel Studios, rumors persist with professional enthusiasm. Nova remains the most discussed possibility via Daniel Richtman, with Harry Osborn trailing behind. Ghost Rider and X-Men chatter follows, proof that Hollywood rarely stops watching.
