How Does Millie Bobby Brown Want Stranger Things To End?

The fifth season of Stranger Things is expected to be the show’s last, and it will likely be released in 2024. There’s been a lot of speculation about how the show should end, and some of the cast has their own ideas. Maya Hawke (Robin Buckley) recently said that she wouldn’t mind if her character died. Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven) recently had a chat with Total Film (via Games Radar) and gave some suggestions of her own, including the idea of a musical episode.

“Probably when I’m filming, I won’t even know how it ends,” Brown shared. “I know as much as you know. I really, really am clueless. And, also, they don’t want to tell me. I’ve got a huge mouth.” Total Film mentioned that Brown previously said that she wanted Eleven and Finn Wolfhard’s Mike Wheeler to stay together, and she replied, “I say things like this, but then I also said I want her to die. I really don’t know. And also, it’s not my choice. I say all these things really just under my breath, and then people take them and print them. And I’m like, no, no, no – I said that as a joke, that I wanted her to get married and work at a Target. That was a joke. But it’s maybe not a joke?”

Brown added, “I’d love to be the writer! I’d make it more of a musical … But, you know, they don’t entrust it in the hands of me, which they should [laughs]. Trust me. I can do the finale to Stranger Things, and it would be great. I think it should be like It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Did you ever see the musical episode? It needs to end like that – a musical episode.”
