Millie Bobby Brown is an English actress and model born on February 19, 2004. She gained prominence for her role as Eleven in the Netflix science fiction drama series Stranger Things, earning a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series at the age of 13. Brown is also the youngest person to feature on TIME 100 list.
Millie was born in Marbella, Andalusia, Spain, to English parents Kelly and Robert Brown. The family moved to Bournemouth, Dorset, when Brown was around four years old, and later to Orlando, Florida, four years later. She began attending acting workshops in Orlando, where a top Hollywood talent scout noticed her exceptional instincts and advised her parents to mix it with the best kids in Hollywood.
The family packed up and drove from Orlando to Los Angeles, and within a week, Millie was meeting with top children's talent agencies. She was offered representation by all the agents she met, and within three months of being in Hollywood, she was cast as young Alice in ABC's fantasy drama series Once Upon a Time in Wonderland.
In November 2013, Millie was offered the role of Madison O'Donnell in BBC America's paranormal drama-thriller series Intruders after just one self-taped audition. She made guest appearances in various TV shows, including NCIS, Modern Family, and Grey's Anatomy. In 2016, she played Eleven in Stranger Things, receiving critical acclaim and nominations for several awards, including the Screen Actors Guild Award and the Primetime Emmy Award.
Millie has also appeared in commercial advertisements for Citigroup and modeled for Calvin Klein's By Appointment campaign. She made her feature film debut in Godzilla: King of the Monsters and was cast to star and produce the film adaptation of the Enola Holmes Mysteries book. In January 2018, she became the youngest person ever to be included on Time magazine's list of the world's 100 most influential people.
Brown currently resides in London and Atlanta, Georgia.
