Millie Bobby Brown says ending Stranger Things 'felt like a death'

Millie Bobby Brown Reflects on the End of Stranger Things

Few things in life are certain, but one is clear: Stranger Things is ending indefinitely, and it will be deeply emotional. Created by brothers Mike and Ross Duffer, the show has gained a devoted following since its 2016 Netflix debut, turning its previously unknown young cast into major Hollywood stars.

The highly anticipated fifth season is set to premiere on November 28. However, its return has been overshadowed by controversial claims, including an unproven allegation that Millie Bobby Brown was bullied by older co-star David Harbour during filming.

Millie Bobby Brown on Filming the Final Scenes

Brown, who was just 10 years old when she landed her breakthrough role as Eleven, a girl with telekinetic powers, shared how emotionally difficult filming the last scenes was for her.

"It’s like a death of someone you love," Brown said in the December issue of British Vogue. "I was 10 when I started, so this is like a family to me; not just the cast, not just the crew, but the entity of Stranger Things."

For Brown, the experience of working on the show has been more than just a job—it has been a tightly knit community and a formative part of her life.

Summary

Millie Bobby Brown describes the end of Stranger Things as a profound loss, comparing it to losing a loved one and emphasizing the strong bonds formed over years on set.
