Millie Bobby Brown gave fans a sneak peek into the most anticipated final season of Stranger Things during the Netflix special event in Hollywood.
The 20-year-old actress revealed she “channeled her inner Tom Cruise” while preparing for the final chapter of the series, which she promised would be filled with action and thrilling emotions.
Speaking to co-stars Noah Schnapp, Finn Wolfhard, Caleb McLaughlin, Gaten Matarazzo and Jamie Campbell Bower, as well as creators Ross and Matt Duffer, Brown said the experience felt like the end of a long journey.
“I feel like the Duffers trained me for this,” she said.
“It was really exciting to be more of a resource this season, not just because of Eleven’s powers, but also because of the physical training and discipline I put on myself.”
The mother-of-one further said that the first volume of the final season will be just the beginning of what’s to come, hinting at emotional twists and intense battles.
Schnapp joked about his character Will’s ongoing struggles, saying, “I like it when I can smile on the show,” while the Duffers playfully added that if there had been a season six, “we probably would have written it by now.”
The series’ creators also confirmed that Terminator legend Linda Hamilton had joined the cast, calling her perfect for the action-packed story.
However, they revealed that young actress Nell Fisher would also appear to help bring back the magic of the first season.
For the uninitiated, the final season of Stranger Things will premiere in three parts on Netflix, arriving on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve 2025.
