Stranger Things' Millie Bobby Brown addresses 'freaky' season 4 fan theory
Is her character set for a major switch up?
Stranger Things' Millie Bobby Brown has opened up about the next series of the hit Netflix show, admitting she's "freaked out" that she could potentially be the villain of the fourth season.
As series three ended, viewers saw the 15-year-old's character Eleven getting part of the Mind Flayer's flesh stuck on her leg, leading fans to conjure up many theories and predictions, with one being that Eleven gets infected from the flesh, turning her into a baddie.
Speaking to Elle about fan predictions, Millie said, "I kind of like it! I'm into it. I wasn't playing it like that. We don't know what happens in season four. I definitely don't. In scenes after the Mind Flayer grabbed me, I wasn't playing it as I was infected.
"I was definitely playing it as normal as possible. And maybe that's the reason they didn't tell me. To make it as real as possible. I don't know."
The Godzilla star went on to say, "Those theories freak me out a bit. Because I'm like, 'Oh god, that could genuinely be true.' And what if she is the villain?
"That would be so cool. Wouldn't that be cool? I'd love to be the villain, but then I also wouldn't because Eleven is perfect. It would suck."
Millie's discussion of fan theories came after she said she was "annoyed" at the ending of Stranger Things' last season.
Confessing her shock, she said, "I read the script and I was like, 'What, how is this even possible? Why are they moving away?' They were like 'Didn’t you read episode 3?' And I was like, 'Oh yeah.'
"Because Joyce said she wanted to move away from Hawkins. I don’t know, I just felt really against it."
