Is Millie Bobby Brown the Future Face of Britney Spears?
It's not just about the Upside Down anymore. Millie Bobby Brown, best known for her spellbinding performance in 'Stranger Things', has another role in her sights - that of pop sensation Britney Spears.
A Britney Biopic in Brown's Future?
In a candid chat with Drew Barrymore on her talk show, Millie opened up about her connection with Spears, "I think her story resonates with me." As reported by Deadline, Brown went on to discuss her admiration for the singer and added, "I see the scramble for words and I don’t know her, but when I look up pictures of her I feel like I could tell her story in the right way and hers only." While the idea of a Spears-centric movie might be in its budding phase, Brown's passionate declaration surely has fans buzzing.
A Puzzling Adventure with Enola Holmes
Taking a detour from the 'Stranger Things' universe, Millie is also garnering praise for her role in Netflix's 'Enola Holmes' sequel. Based on the book series by Nancy Springer, the film dives into the adventures of Sherlock's lesser-known sister, portrayed brilliantly by Brown. Directed by Harry Bradbeer and with a screenplay penned by Jack Thorne, 'Enola Holmes 2' has an ensemble cast featuring Henry Cavill, Louis Partridge, Helena Bonham-Carter, and newcomers David Thewlis and Sharon Duncan-Brewster.
Navigating Fame's Tricky Terrains
In the same interview, Brown shed light on the complexities of growing up in the entertainment industry, commenting on its highs and lows. “Yes, of course, I’ve been undermined in the past, but we don’t focus on those things." Millie emphasized focusing on the positives, celebrating her opportunity as a leading lady in film, calling it a "step forward".
If there's anything this chat has revealed, it's that Millie Bobby Brown isn't just Eleven from 'Stranger Things'. She's a young woman with dreams, ambitions, and a profound understanding of her place in the industry. Whether or not she'll step into the shoes of Britney Spears remains to be seen, but one thing's for sure - her star is only set to shine brighter.
