Millie Bobby Brown & Noah Schnapp Reveal Emotional Impact of ‘Stranger Things’ Finale
As the final season of Stranger Things approaches, young stars Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp opened up about the overwhelming emotions they experienced during the show’s closing chapters.
Millie Bobby Brown, who plays Eleven, described her journey on the series as life-changing. “We grew up together on this show. From losing teeth to reaching life milestones, everything is tied to Stranger Things,” she shared. She fondly recalled childhood memories on set, from sleepovers at each other’s houses to building forts and creating homemade music videos with the cast.
Noah Schnapp, who plays Will Byers, admitted that reading scripts where beloved characters die was difficult. “Losing Peppa in season 4 was really hard because I’m close to Matthew Modine. I felt the same about Bob in season 2. Scenes like that are truly emotional,” he said.
For the finale, the cast didn’t receive scripts in advance. They read the final episodes together on the day of filming. Millie recalled, “The tension, the emotion—it was palpable. By the end, we were all in shambles. You can only imagine how intense it will feel for viewers.”
Reflecting on her younger self at age 12, when she first appeared on Access Hollywood, Millie shared advice: “Stay true to yourself, keep your family and best friends close, and listen to your inner voice over outside opinions.”
The final season of Stranger Things promises a spectacular and emotional conclusion, celebrating the growth of its young cast and the lifelong friendships formed on and off screen.
