The renowned actress, Millie Bobby Brown, who was known for her great role of Eleven, in the acclaimed series Stranger Things, revealed in an interview for Glamour, that she is ready to undertake new projects that she is passionate about and leave behind the series that made her known.
And the fact is that this character that earned her consecration as an actress brought her both recognition and rejection among journalists and representatives, who even called her an ‘idiot’, since her life, not only professionally, but also personally, began to be in the public domain since she was 13 years old.
These insults were because, due to her inexperience, Millie used to talk a lot, while her fellow actors answered questions, causing the scorn of both the press and representatives who insulted her, thinking that she only wanted to gain prominence.
“I’m Ready to Say Thank You and Goodbye”
Millie Bobby Brown revealed to the magazine that filming scenes for Stranger Things takes a long time on set, plus this situation prevented her from getting involved in new projects she wanted to develop and compared the end of the series to graduating from school.
“When you’re ready, you say, ‘Okay, let’s do this. Let’s tackle this last senior year. Let’s get out of here. Stranger Things requires a lot of filming time and keeps me from creating stories that I’m passionate about. So I’m ready to say, ‘Thank you and goodbye,'” said the actress.
Even though she knows that the series gave her the resources and tools to be able to be the actress she is now, she knows she is ready to say goodbye and continue her successful career not only as an actress but as an entrepreneur and writer.
So, Millie says goodbye to her emblematic character with the last season of the series, and although it might seem that she is getting rid of something that weighed on her, she says she is grateful and waiting for new opportunities, as she has also written her first book Nineteen Steps, has a production company and is in the makeup business with her brand Florence by Mills.
In addition, she has new projects in the pipeline, one of them is the one she will star in with Chris Pratt, The Electric State, a post-apocalyptic adventure film by the Russo brothers. And let’s not forget that at 19, she is engaged to Jake Bongiovi, 21, son of singer Jon Bon Jovi, and they are about to get married.
