Being positioned as one of the jewels in Netflix’s crown has paid off handsomely for Adam Sandler, and he’s got three decades more experience in the industry than Millie Bobby Brown, who also appears to be primed for big things working for the world’s biggest streaming service.
The 16 year-old received a producing credit for Enola Holmes as well as playing the title character, and the mystery caper received widespread acclaim from critics before proving to be just as popular with subscribers around the world, where it dominated the Top 10 most-watched list for a long time and ended up becoming the sixth most popular original movie in Netflix’s history after racking up 76 million streams in the first four weeks it was available.
The Stranger Things star already has con artist movie The Girls I’ve Been and medieval fantasy blockbuster Damsel in the works for the company, without even mentioning her return as Eleven in the upcoming fourth season of the global phenomenon that marked her breakout role and saw her score two Emmy nominations in the process.
Stranger Things is widely expected to wrap up after the fifth run of episodes, but there’s been speculation that Netflix want to expand the mythology through a series of spinoffs, and insider Daniel Richtman claims Eleven could be one of the subjects for a solo show. As arguably the most popular of the young cast members it would be guaranteed to find a huge audience, but Season 2’s “The Lost Sister” was clearly created as a backdoor pilot to gauge interest in following a group of people with similar abilities to Eleven, and is widely regarded as one of the show’s weakest installments.
