What’s up y’all, it’s Emile Ennis Jr.
with Clevver News, and as many TV shows return
back to their regularly scheduled programming,
Millie Bobby Brown reveals what she hopes
is to come on the upcoming season of Stranger
Things, and spoiler alert: We totally ship
it.
After putting a pause on production back in
March, due to the obvious, Stranger Things
fans have been left with a slew of unanswered
questions following Season 3’s explosive
finale at “The Battle at Starcourt.”
But before I get too far in, for those of
you who haven’t tuned into Season 3 yet,
I just wanted to let you know that there will
be small spoilers ahead, so only continue
if you feel comfortable doing so.
So while fans continue to craft their own
wild predictions about what will happen to
many of the characters come Season 4, Millie
Bobby Brown has her own hopes in mind in the
form of a teenage whirlwind love affair between
Mike and Eleven.
While recently chatting with Glamour UK, Millie
began by praising her beloved heroine character
and hopes that she’ll score a big win come
next season, saying QUOTE, “Oh my god, she's
been through so much, I just hope she’s
happy.
I always say to the Duffers, 'Can she just
not smile like in one take?'
I would love her story to be rounded off by
like a good ending.”
Millie added that she trusts the show’s
creators, the Duffer brothers, and that she’s
confident she’ll “love it no matter what
it is,” adding, “But I’d love for her
to get her powers back because she is a hero,
she is like a super woman in a way.”
Speaking of happy endings, Millie took things
a little further and teased fans who’ve
been shipping Mike and Eleven since the beginning
that she, too, would LOVE to see them end
up together.
Millie spoke out on behalf of Eleven, saying,
“She loves Mike – I want them to get married.
That’s what I need.
I need a wedding scene for Stranger Things,
period.
Eleven in a wedding dress and her going, ‘Sorry,
my nose is bleeding.
It’s a white dress.’
Doesn’t it just seem like it would fit?”
I can think of NOTHING more Eleven than this
scene if she were to actually marry Mike,
and pretty sure fans are here for it as well.
But considering Eleven is technically only
in her teens, we may have a few more seasons
before this becomes a reality.
But don’t let the thought that Eleven won’t
have a ‘happy ending’ unless she gets
married fool you.
If anything, Millie, who’s an outspoken
feminist and activist, will do anything in
her power to portray the strong female roles
she takes on in a powerful light, especially
for young girls her age who are taking note.
In her upcoming role starring as Sherlock
Holmes' sister and the title character, Enola
Holmes, Millie revealed that her role is crucial
as it touches on sexism and reverse ageism.
Millie touched on the film saying QUOTE, “The
broader message is touching on female empowerment.
But we also show that, hey, it’s OK to be
a young girl and really not know what you’re
doing or what your purpose is in life.
But that doesn’t mean that you don’t have
one.
It means that you just have to find it.”
In doing so, believing in herself as a young
female is something Millie takes pride in.
Aside from acting onscreen, Millie has also
tacked on a producer role for the film to
her resume.
She revealed that she was very nervous to
step into a role with so much responsibility,
saying, “I was very nervous.
I'm not going to lie.
I've never done that before so to be honest
I wasn't coming onto set like, ‘I have authority.’
I came on set like, ‘Should I say this?
Should I say that?’
But as soon as I walked on to set, I didn’t
even have those thoughts come into my head.”
In doing so, Millie revealed that her faith
in herself is what keeps her going, saying,
“As a young person and as a young girl I
was very listened to… but listen, I came
out of the womb having a voice!”
She also touched on this during her powerful
speech last year at the UN, saying, “Young
people don’t want to be talked about.
We want to do the talking.”
Most importantly, Millie shared that taking
on the role of Enola Holmes has taught her
one of the most valuable life lessons: “That
being with yourself, being your own biggest
critic, being your own biggest support team
is so important…
Everyone has to empower themselves.”
