Millie Bobby Brown discusses everything from “Stranger Things” to her role in “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” in a new interview with Teen Vogue.
Brown, 15, says of what drew her to “Godzilla”: “I have a rule, if I don’t cry at the trailer, I don’t see it in a movie theatre. So I haven’t gone to the movies since ‘Dunkirk’.
“I also live in a small town and they pick terrible movies to play on their three adorable vintage screens. But I cried every time watching the trailer for ‘Godzilla’. And I’m not even a ‘Godzilla’ super-fan. I think it’s, you know, this is definitely the movie to become a ‘Godzilla’ fan.”

The teen says of why her “Stranger Things” character Eleven resonates with her, “For me, I gravitate toward people that need help. I’m just one of those people. I think my mom is the same. I gravitate towards people like that. And I think that’s what people do with Eleven. They gravitate toward her because she feels, you feel like you need to help her. I don’t know, I find that really fun, especially in movies, you feel like you can try and help people.”
Brown adds of whether her success has hit her yet, “I’ve been ever-so-lucky to have some amazing projects that have been really well received. And my characters, I’ve had such a fun time playing. I think it’s just my life. It’s how I’m living my life right now.”

“There are definitely those surreal moments where I’ve stopped myself and said, ‘Wow, this is different, this is not what real people go through, and maybe I should go and feed my dogs and do the normal things in life.’ But yeah, I mean, it’s a cool experience, just everything I’m doing. But then again I do love to feed my dogs.”
