Millie Bobby Brown on Adopting Her Daughter: “The Most Surreal Feeling”

Millie Bobby Brown on Adopting Her Daughter: “The Most Surreal Feeling”

The interest wasn’t one-sided, because her husband was also immediately open to the idea of adoption, said Brown. “I would say Jake was kind of in from the jump. Maybe that’s why I married him. We were just so aligned. No explanation needed,” she said. “It was kind of great to be able to just know that we wanted to start a family still rooted in love, but through adoption.” The actor then mentioned a “rightfully” long and thorough process involved in taking on a child, and how joy overwhelmed her and Bongiovi the moment they received the call telling them they’d been matched with a little girl. “Getting the call, I mean, I will never forget it,” she told Shetty. “It was the most surreal feeling and yet we both knew in that moment, like, that was…that we had found each other. Like, oh my goodness, this is our girl, 100%, no doubt.” Recalling that moment, Brown remembered a conversation she had with another adoptive mother. “And she told us, ‘There are two ways …

Millie Bobby Brown on growing up as Enola Holmes: ‘I don’t underestimate myself any more’

Get the latest entertainment news, reviews and star-studded interviews with our Independent Culture email Get the latest entertainment news with our free Culture newsletter Get the latest entertainment news with our free Culture newsletter A lot has changed in the seven years since Millie Bobby Brown first played Enola Holmes, the swashbuckling little sister of Sherlock, his equal in both sleuthing and pontificating. For one thing, Brown is no longer the child star telekinetic of Stranger Things; she is 22 now – a mother, a wife, and a producer, in addition to her continued work as one of the world’s most recognisable actors. So, if she were to give her 15-year-old self a piece of advice? “Oh, there’s so much!” Brown exclaims, taking a beat before landing on one very simple directive: “Don’t go online. Just don’t do it.” Luckily, the internet and online trolls are not things her Victorian-era protagonist has to deal with; Enola’s bag is more murder and good ol’ fashioned skulduggery. Out on Netflix now, Enola Holmes 3 finds the brainy …

Enola Holmes 3 review: Millie Bobby Brown is on fine form in the best Enola Holmes film yet

Enola Holmes 3 review: Millie Bobby Brown is on fine form in the best Enola Holmes film yet

A star rating of 4 out of 5. Movie sequels are supposed to get worse as they go on, aren’t they? That old adage is tested here, with the return of Sherlock Holmes’s sparky sleuth of a sister. This third tale builds upon the quirky beats and frenetic set pieces of her first two outings. It also heads off to pastures new, swapping 19th-century London for the sunny climes of Malta. Millie Bobby Brown is on fine form – again – as the now fully-grown and set-to-be-married Enola Holmes. There’s no doubt that she’s in love with the genial Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge), who she met in the previous film, and he’s devoted to her in return. The problem is that he’s a member of the House of Lords, a rising voice in social change and a thoroughly respectable member of society. Enola, however, isn’t. She’s a female detective, a brand-new ‘profession’ frowned upon by posh types. Can she fit in with her husband-to-be’s life? Sherlock (Henry Cavill) doesn’t seem to think so, scowling and grunting …

Millie Bobby Brown in Netflix Threequel

Millie Bobby Brown in Netflix Threequel

When we were first introduced to her, Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister Enola was a fresh-faced teenager, extremely intelligent but inexperienced in the art of deduction. In the unimaginatively titled Enola Holmes 3, the second sequel to Netflix’s 2020 hit (no points for guessing the title of the preceding film), she’s all grown up and a seasoned detective who can give her brother a run for his money. And she’s about to be married to the handsome Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge), who is now a Lord. Millie Bobby Brown reprises her title role in this installment (adapted from Nancy Springer’s best-selling YA book series, which already numbers ten entries plus a short story), as Enola nervously prepares for her upcoming wedding to be held in Malta. Her being a Holmes, things tend to get in the way. In this case, it’s her brother Sherlock (Henry Cavill) being kidnapped, and not long afterward her future mother-in-law Lady Tewkesbury (Hattie Morahan) getting abducted as well. Enola has to solve the case with the aid of the trusty Dr. Watson …

Inside Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour’s relationship today as they reunite for special reason

Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour are reuniting for a very special reason. Just months after Stranger Things came to an end, the former co-stars have signed on to play father and daughter once again in a new Netflix spy drama from A24. The untitled series will see Millie, 22, and David, 51, step away from the supernatural world of Hawkins and into a far more high-stakes thriller. Written by Adolescence creator Jack Thorne, the show follows disgraced FBI agent turned security expert Matt Wolfe, played by David, who is forced back into the field after his estranged daughter Rebecca vanishes during a mission. Millie will play Rebecca, an FBI agent determined to follow in her father’s footsteps – despite their fractured relationship. The pair will also executive produce the series, alongside Millie’s husband Jake Bongiovi and her father Robert Brown. © Getty ImagesMillie and David at the Stranger Things season four premiere It is a fitting next step for the actors, who spent 10 years playing one of television’s most beloved father-daughter duos.

Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi looked more loved-up than ever as they stepped out for a glamorous date night at the New York City premiere of Enola Holmes 3 on Thursday.
