Millie Bonnie Bongiovi (née Brown; born 19 February 2004), known professionally as Millie Bobby Brown, is a British actress and film producer. She gained international recognition for playing Eleven in the Netflix science fiction series Stranger Things (2016–2025), for which she received nominations for two Primetime Emmy Awards. In 2018, Brown was featured in the Time 100 list of the world's most influential people, and she was appointed as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, the youngest person ever selected for this position.

Brown has starred in the monster film Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) and its sequel Godzilla vs. Kong (2021). She also starred in and produced the Netflix films Enola Holmes (2020), Enola Holmes 2 (2022), Damsel (2024), and The Electric State (2025).

Millie Bonnie Brown was born on 19 February 2004 in Marbella, Andalusia, Spain, the third of four children of British parents Kelly and Robert Brown, an estate agent. Her middle name is "Bonnie", but she changed it to "Bobby" when she began using a stage name. She was born with partial hearing loss in her left ear and gradually lost all hearing in that ear over several years. She moved with her family back to England when she was four, settling in Bournemouth. When she was eight, the family moved to Orlando, Florida. Brown says she grew up with "no money", and the financial insecurity of her upbringing has affected her relationship with money in adulthood, even after achieving success through Stranger Things as a child actor.
