The Stranger Things star breaks her silence amid reports of behind-the-scenes tension with her longtime co-star.

Millie Bobby Brown Speaks Out

November 7, 2025: Millie Bobby Brown has finally addressed the controversy surrounding her Stranger Things co-star David Harbour, following reports that she had filed harassment claims against him earlier this year. In a recent statement, Brown called the situation “deeply upsetting” but emphasized her focus on “moving forward with positivity and professionalism.”

The 20-year-old actress, who rose to global fame as Eleven in Netflix’s hit series, said she wanted to “let the work speak for itself” and avoid letting speculation overshadow the upcoming fifth and final season of the show. “It’s been an emotional time,” Brown admitted. “But I’ve always believed in standing up for myself and maintaining respect in every work environment.”

Inside the Alleged Rift

Reports surfaced last month alleging that Brown and Harbour — who plays Chief Jim Hopper — had a falling out on set, leading to tension during production. While details remain limited, insiders claimed that Brown raised concerns over Harbour’s on-set behavior, prompting Netflix to launch an internal review.

Neither Netflix nor Harbour has publicly commented on the outcome of that review, though sources close to production have said filming remains on schedule and professional boundaries have been reinforced.

Fans React to Brown’s Statement

Following her remarks, fans flooded social media with messages of support for Brown, applauding her maturity and courage in addressing such a sensitive issue. Many praised her for prioritizing her well-being while maintaining respect for the cast and crew of Stranger Things.

Some longtime fans also expressed hope that the situation will not affect the show’s final season, which has been one of the most anticipated TV events of the decade.

Looking Ahead

Brown, who has been expanding her career beyond Stranger Things with projects like Enola Holmes and her new Netflix film Damsel, said she’s channeling her energy into her craft and upcoming ventures. “I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve created,” she said. “This chapter is closing, but I’m grateful for every lesson it’s taught me.”

As the Stranger Things finale approaches, Brown’s statement marks the first — and possibly only — time she’ll address the controversy directly, signaling her intent to focus on her future and leave the drama behind.
