Speaking about portraying the role of Eleven this season, the actress said, “I feel like the Duffers have been training me for this moment. It was really exciting to be more of a resource this season, not just because of her powers but also her physical training and attributes that she’s put herself through."
Eleven is the main protagonist of the Netflix series, known for psychokinetic and telekinetic powers.
Sharing about her experience, Millie said, as quoted by The Hollywood Reporter, “It was really fun; I definitely channelled my inner Tom Cruise. I feel like Volume One only touches on what she’s been training for, and I’m really excited for everyone to see what that leads to."

What Will Season 5 Of Stranger Things Be About?
The final chapter is set to take viewers back to the beginning of the series, following the 1983 disappearance of Will Byers (Noah Schnapp).
The synopsis for Season 5, as quoted by Variety, read, "The fall of 1987. Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal to find and kill Vecna, who has vanished and his whereabouts and plans are unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they’ve faced before. To end this nightmare, they’ll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time.”
