Stranger Things Star Millie Bobby Brown Could Join The MCU In The Next Avengers Movie

Could Millie Bobby Brown be the next high-profile star to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe? It’s certainly possible. What’s more, there’s at least a chance the “Stranger Things” actor could appear in the upcoming “Avengers: Doomsday” and/or “Avengers: Secret Wars,” which will bring Marvel’s Multiverse Saga to a close.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, directors Joe Russo and Anthony Russo were promoting the release of their new Netflix blockbuster “The Electric State,” which stars Brown. The duo, who previously directed “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Endgame,” were asked about Brown possibly joining the MCU since the Russos are returning for “Doomsday” and “Secret Wars,” which will begin filming later this year.

In fairness, the Russos aren’t being overly committed here. There aren’t any official reports suggesting that Brown is in talks for a role in the MCU, nor is it clear if that’s something she would even want to do. But with “Stranger Things” season 5 set to bring the series to a close, Brown could, in theory, sign on for another long-term commitment. Marvel Studios would almost certainly be happy to have her.

So, who would Brown be a good fit for? We know that Marvel is quietly readying its “X-Men” reboot behind the scenes. It’s not hard to picture Brown as Rogue, for example. The big thing is that if Marvel were to sign a big star like Brown, it would probably be for a major role of that caliber. We could spend endless amounts of time speculating. For what it’s worth, Brown’s “Stranger Things” co-star Sadie Sink was recently cast in “Spider-Man 4.” A reunion on the horizon, perhaps?

What we know for sure is that “Doomsday” and “Secret Wars” are shaping up to be truly massive events. Robert Downey Jr. is playing the villain Doctor Doom in both films, which is a major turn given that the actor previously portrayed Iron Man for more than a decade. Many, many other actors from the MCU’s past are also expected to appear. One imagines some new actors who can help carry the MCU into the future will be part of the proceedings as well. Might Brown be on that list? Time will tell.
