Are Stranger
Things' Millie
Bobby Brown And
Matthew Modine
Really Friends?
By JIM ROWLEY
In "Stranger Things," the relationship between Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) and Dr. Martin Brenner (Matthew Modine) is complicated, which leads fans to wonder what their relationship is like off-screen. Thankfully, in Brown and Modine's case, life does not imitate art.
Brown said of their relationship, "We meshed, and it was just a true, real friendship. Nothing was ever forced. It just worked." Modine echoed this in a Tweet, "One of the great pleasures of my career has been working beside and becoming dear friends with Millie Bobby Brown. I wish the whole world could know her heart."
Brown and Modine are much more than collegial chums, and while filming Season 4, Modine stayed at Brown's guest house for three months. Hanging out together became part of their daily routine, and they even went on a road trip from Georgia to Florida together.
