In an interview with Vanity Fair, the actress admitted: “I don’t have many friends, because of who I am. I didn’t go to school, so I don’t have the best social skills.”
She’ll be able to retire there when the algorithm is no longer counting on her. For now, after Stranger Things and the third Enola Holmes movie, she’s signed another film with Netflix. According to Bloomberg, in the third season of Stranger Things, she earned $250,000 per episode. Millie Bobby Brown is the closest thing to those classic movie stars who had exclusive contracts with a studio. It was their home — like Marilyn Monroe with Fox or James Stewart with MGM. The difference today is that she’s a movie star without stepping foot in a movie theater.
I didn’t go to school, so I don’t have the best social skills.
I did go to school and my social skills mirror those of a badger. I’m not sure if social skills are taught there. If, they failed me big time.
You learned to survive in a world you don’t fit in, so there’s that.
“I also struggle with loneliness a bit. I always felt quite alone in a crowded room, like I was just one of a kind, like nobody ever really understood me.”
On the other hand, she could struggle with this and not be rich. So it probably worked out pretty well for her.
I don’t know her personal struggles, but I think part of growing up is feeling like that. That’s why so much of the music kids listen to has that theme regardless of genre. Pop, punk, country, metal, rap - it’s all “no one understands me”. Then I think you meet other likeminded people and you grow out of it as you realize the whole world is filled with individuals and they all have their own stuff going on. You’re not a special snowflake when you realize everyone is, and then you kinda become an adult who lives in society.
I cannot believe The Electric State had a production budget of $US345 million.
Where did it all go? It looked like ass. It has to be money laundering or something, right?
Yeah we need Mike and Jay to do a follow up to their Jack and Jill expose.
I cannot believe they turned Simon Stalenhag’s beautiful art into generic Hollywood action slop
It didn’t even look like Simon’s work to me. The Electric State as painted is very banal. “Sure robots and megastructures exist alongside us but I still have to go to work, or farm, or play in the fields as a kid, and so do some robots.”
YES. Tales From The Loop nailed the vibe. This movie does not
I can but it shouldn’t have had that budget
Really goes into the struggles of a young person in the industry. Least she is aware of it but it can understand the loneliness of it all.
Jake Bongiovi sounds like the Italian rip-off of Bon Jovi, didn’t know his son is called like that.
