Millie Bobby Brown’s Stranger Things Follow-Up

Stranger Things will soon end its run with one final installment, but Netflix has already found its perfect follow-up for Millie Bobby Brown.

Although Millie Bobby Brown did not make her debut with Stranger Things, the Netflix show played a crucial role in shaping her acting career. Since her first appearance as Eleven in Stranger Things season 1, the actress has starred in many acclaimed shows and movies. However, it is still hard not to associate her with her character in the Netflix sci-fi show.

Owing to this, it is fair to say that Stranger Things‘ final season will mark the end of a crucial era in Millie Bobby Brown’s acting journey. However, new details surrounding her upcoming Netflix show suggest that she will continue to grow as a creative long after Stranger Things ends its long run.

Millie Bobby Brown’s Next Post-Stranger Things Netflix Series Keeps Her In The Supernatural Genre

Some of Millie Bobby Brown’s most prominent roles since her first appearance in Stranger Things have been in movies and shows like Enola Holmes, The Electric State, and Damsel. None of these had a supernatural angle like Stranger Things, but things are about to change with her upcoming Netflix show Prism.

Based on a short story of the same name by Nick Shafir, Prism will center on a woman named Cassie (played by Millie Bobby Brown) who possesses the ability to communicate with apparitions. The show will primarily focus on a global phenomenon where several ghostly “visitors” will suddenly start emerging, forcing Cassie to find the truth about them (via Deadline).

At first glance, Prism might seem significantly different from most supernatural shows on Netflix. However, a closer look at its premise reveals how it is reminiscent of Stranger Things in several ways. For instance, like Stranger Things, it features Millie Bobby Brown’s character as someone with a unique supernatural power.

The emphasis on otherworldly “visitors” in Prism also conjures the image of creatures like the Demogorgon and Vecna crossing dimensions and visiting the human realm in Stranger Things. Even the hinted global scale of the upcoming series hints at how expansive its storytelling scope will be like Stranger Things.

With so many potential overlaps between Stranger Things and Prism, it is hard not to see the upcoming series as the perfect step forward for Millie Bobby Brown in the supernatural genre.

Rachel Brosnahan’s Prism Involvement Makes Prism Even More Exciting

Apart from starring in Prism, Millie Bobby Brown will also serve as its executive producer. Interestingly, Rachel Brosnahan is also involved with the supernatural show as its executive producer. While there are no official statements about her starring in the series, her mere involvement as a producer makes it even more exciting.

Brosnahan is rising in the ranks to become one of the biggest Hollywood stars of today. Her performances in Superman, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and House of Cards have already won her immense praise, and she will likely garner even more acclaim with her leading roles in highly anticipated shows and movies like Man of Tomorrow and Presumed Innocent season 2.

All in all, she is a creative force to be reckoned with and just her involvement with the upcoming Netflix Millie Bobby Brown show highlights its potential. Hopefully, it will be as critically and commercially successful as Stranger Things (if not more).
