Amid her “slight depression” when the popular Netflix series ended, Millie Bobby Brown reveals that she apologized to her Stranger Things co-stars.

“They probably thought I was crazy,” Brown said on the Happy Sad Confused podcast. “I was like, ‘We’re still friends, right? Like, you’re not gonna stop talking to me anymore?’ I was like, ‘I’m sorry if I ever upset you,’ and was just trying to mend anything. ‘It’s been 10 years, and I really want to be friends. You’re my sibling,’” per Variety.

Brown, 22, began filming the show at 10 years old. Eleven was not merely a character she played, but it was part of her. “This character was me, and these people were in my life more than my own family,” she explained. “Saying goodbye to that after 10 years was a very, very emotional thing, and I’m going to miss Eleven more than anything.

Reportedly, Brown did experience tension with her co-star, David Harbour, who played her adoptive Father on the show.

According to Page Six, Brown filed a complaint about Harbour before the season 5 filming began. During filming of the finale, Brown was allegedly accompanied by a personal representative on set. Harbour was subject to an internal investigation, but the outcome is unknown.

According to Harbour, other people on set got involved in the situation. Once the pair had “cleared everybody out of the way and talked to each other,” they were “fine.”

“Everyone nowadays is very scared of talking about things,” he shared. He compared the conflict to families who “occasionally get in arguments” but always “come back together”

According to Harbour, the two “adore each other and always have.”

This is further evidenced by Brown teasing a future project with Harbour, saying the plans were “concrete.”

When prompted for more information, Brown simply said, “Father-daughter is where we live, but Netflix will always be our home.”
