The actress shared the difficulties that she faced before landing her role as Eleven in Stranger Things. Millie said she was disheartened by the rejections. She was auditioning for commercials. Later on, she auditioned for Game of Thrones. “I auditioned for GOT and I got a No for that. Then that, when I was like this, is really difficult and I guess I really wanted that role.”
However, things changed when she grabbed the role of a lead character on Stranger Things. There’s no denying, Stranger Things changed the career of Finn Wolfhard and Millie Bobby Brown in just one night.
