    Millie Bobby Brown Hasn't Watched Marvel, DC or 'Harry Potter' Movies

    WENN

    Instead of watching comic book superhero blockbusters or the wizarding movies, the ‘Stranger Things’ actress is more interested in romantic films like ‘The Notebook’.

    AceShowbiz –
    Millie Bobby Brown has never watched any Marvel, DC, or “Harry Potter” films.

    The 17-year-old actress – who stars in new blockbuster “Godzilla vs. Kong” – has been asked about other franchise battles in the spirit of the movie, and she revealed there’s a lot she hasn’t seen.

    “So I haven’t watched a Marvel film, ever, and I’ve never watched a DC film. News, I know,” she told MTV. “It’s not (my thing) but I’m open to it. I’ve just never been like, ‘Oh I’m going to put on this film.’ ”

    The “Stranger Things” star – who is more into “The Notebook” and “romance films” – admitted her friends can’t believe she’s not watched a “Harry Potter” film.

    Asked to choose between the wizarding franchise and “Jurassic Park”, she picked the latter and explained, “I’ve never watched Harry Potter… I know, I know, I know. I have so many friends that just look at me and they’re like, ‘How?’ I’m like, I don’t know.”

    Millie suggested her epic TV and movie roles could be the reason she doesn’t delve into the same kind of thing in her spare time.

    “I’m not crazy on that – because I’m in it, I think that’s why. I’m doing that stuff already. I want to see stuff that’s real,” she mused.

    She was also asked about her preference on the small screen with “Friends” going up against “The Office” and, while she hasn’t seen the latter, she is a huge fan of the other classic sitcom.

    “I’ve watched every episode of Friends,” she grinned. “I like grew up eating dinner and watching Friends. Like, you know in Matilda when they eat dinner in front of the TV? That was me and my family with Friends.”

    She’s already met Jennifer Aniston – who played Rachel Green in the show – but Millie doesn’t think she’d be able to resist quoting Ross Gellar if she ever met actor David Schwimmer.

    “If I met Ross I would scream ‘pivot!’ ” she giggled.

    AceShowbiz – Millie Bobby Brown considered giving up on acting after losing out on a role on “Game of Thrones”.
    During her appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”, the “Enola Holmes” actress, 16, recalled her early rejection, admitting after she didn’t get a role on the HBO show she contemplated a career change.
    Before scooping her part on “Stranger Things”, Millie said she became “very disheartened” by the acting industry, which she feels is “just full of rejection 24/7.”
    “I feel like you do get a lot of noes before you get a yes,” the teenager shared, adding that she was auditioning for “anything really” at the time.

    According to the star, she “really wanted” the “Game of Thrones” role and was particularly upset when she didn’t get it.
    “I got a no for that and then that’s when I was like, ‘Oh, this is really difficult,’ ” Millie shared.
    However, after almost quitting acting, she went on an audition for a “Netflix show called ‘Montauk’ ” – which later became “Stranger Things”.
    “I auditioned and two months later they got back to us and said, ‘Hey we’d love to Skype with you’, and I Skyped with them, and the rest is history,” she smiled. ” ‘Montauk’ was definitely the one that kind of gave me that hope of doing it all again.”
    Millie rose to prominence after starring as Eleven on Netflix’s popular sci-fi horror series “Stranger Things” since 2016. At age 13, she became one youngest nominees in Emmy history after receiving a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series in 2017 for her role on the show.
