‘Stranger Things’ fans think Millie Bobby Brown accidentally revealed Eleven’s fate in resurfaced interview
Stranger Things fans think Millie Bobby Brown accidentally revealed Eleven’s fate during an interview that has resurfaced online.
Back in March, Brown revealed on The Jonathan Ross Show that she knows what happens to her character in the final series of the hit Netflix show.
When explaining, Brown corrected herself saying: “I know how my character… like what happens to my character.” Many fans online thought the “how my character” line could be a slip to refer to how Eleven dies – but Brown did not confirm this.
She continued: “I haven’t read the script because they are in the process of writing them.” Brown explained that she’d read up to episode six.
She then repeated “I know what happens to my character”, before confirming that there are eight episodes in the final season and that she knows what happens in the final two episodes.
When pressed by Ross if her character lives, Brown shrugged and said she’d like to “carry on working for Netflix” and wasn’t going to give anything away.
One user wrote on X/Twitter: “When Millie Bobby Brown said “I know how she, er, I know what happens to my character” about the Stranger Things final series ending, I bet the Netflix bosses were like nooooooooo!!!!”
And another highlighted Brown’s choice of words: “Millie Bobby Brown – ‘I know how my character,… like what happens to my character.’ On Jonathan Ross. ‘How’ means dead.”

She would probably have to, as she already refused the offer of a stranger things future film, but yeah, she messed up with that comment, but could of changed it from, I know how my character story ends….

Back in May, fans were given a first look at Stranger Things season five.
The show marked the halfway point of production on its final season in the summer, and the streaming platform later shared a behind-the-scenes video previewing what’s to come.
In it, we got a showcase of some of the sets, as well as voiceovers of some of the stars reflecting on their years on the show.
“So I started when I was 10,” Brown said. “I’m now turning 20 years old. It feels very weird.”
Sadie Sink (Max Mayfield) added that they are “savouring every single moment”, while Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas Sinclair) teased that the “wait will be worth it”.
“Season four was big, season five definitely feels bigger,” Jamie Campbell Bower (Vecna) further declared, before creators the Duffer Brothers teased that “this is the season fans have been waiting for”.
Filming began on the final season in January this year, having been delayed due to last year’s Hollywood strikes.
Fans can expect eight episodes to wrap up the show’s story, with star Maya Hawke (Robin Buckley) recently teasing that they are “making, basically, eight movies”. “The episodes are very long,” she added.
