Eighteen years old. At the age a lot of young people would currently be looking ahead to a summer of watching Netflix, Millie Bobby Brown is Netflix. She’s not only the superpowered lead in Stranger Things – which still has its fifth and final season to film – but also set to be the star of multiple upcoming movies on the streaming service. A Unicef Goodwill Ambassador, Louis Vuitton house ambassador (sounds Hogwarts-y), the founder of a vegan beauty brand, owner of Pcma Productions and the star of her directorial debut – a short film in which she leaps about on aerial silks like she’s in fricking Cirque du Soleil – she’s the multi-hyphenate to make other multi-hyphenates weep over being such lazy, do-nothing bums. And that’s without even including the unsubstantiated Star Wars rumours.

Here’s what’s coming up next for the Stranger Things star.

From “Stranger Things” to this year’s “Godzilla vs. Kong,” you might say Millie Bobby Brown is the queen of the franchises. But it turns out the 17-year-old actor has never seen any movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the DC Extended Universe, or even the world of Harry Potter.

Speaking to MTV! News (via NME), Brown admitted, “I’ve never watched a Marvel film. I’ve never watched a DC film. But I’m open to it.” She said she’d much rather watch something like “The Notebook” when she’s not working.

“I’m not crazy on [Marvel or DC], because I’m doing it. I’m doing that stuff already. I want to see something that’s real,” Brown said. She also confessed she’s never seen a Harry Potter film. “I’ve have so many friends that just look at me and they’re like, ‘How?’ ‘I don’t know.

Millie Bobby Brown is already the highest-paid teenager on television thanks to a lucrative contract that sees her earn $350,000 per episode for Netflix’s Stranger Things, and at the age of just sixteen she’s also got more money than the rest of us will see in a lifetime. Now, following the success of Enola Holmes, which turned out to be one of the streaming service’s most popular movies ever, it appears as though Brown is being positioned as one of the platform’s marquee stars.

As well as director Harry Bradbeer admitting that he’d love to make anywhere up to five Holmes sequels, the leading lady is currently hard at work shooting season 4 of Stranger Things, which is poised to smash viewership records whenever it arrives. She’s also signed on to headline big budget fantasy epic Damsel from 28 Weeks Later director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo and...

History is littered with child stars who found themselves unable to parlay early success into a sustained career at the top of the industry, but so far, Millie Bobby Brown appears to be on course for a lengthy run at the higher end of the Hollywood A-list. At the age of just sixteen, she’s already a two-time Emmy nominee thanks to her role as Eleven on Stranger Things, one of the biggest shows on television, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

She’s also part of a major blockbuster franchise after boarding Legendary’s MonsterVerse in Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong, while she produced and starred in one of Netflix’s most popular original movies ever, with Enola Holmes poised to launch a multi-film series for the streaming service.
