[SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHEDSTRANGER THINGS 3!]
Millie Bobby Brown’s Eleven probably had the biggest season to date onStranger Things 3.
And I’m not even counting her discovery of scrunchies, bold prints, and The Gap.

That’s a lot for one summer.
EW talked to Brown aboutST3, the hardest scene she shot and filming that big group goodbye.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: You are REALLY put through the wringer this season.
Was this your hardest year emotionally and physically?
MILLIE BOBBY BROWN:Oh, 1000 percent.
It was definitely the most difficult.
Was there a scene in particular that was most challenging?
It was a personal choice to touch his face at the end.
You know the scenes where it looks like I’m falling?
I loved it, I loved every second of it.
But yes, stunt-wise, it was quite difficult this year.
So it was really easy.
Eleven has never really had great fashion sense so was that fun to get to give her a makeover?
What are you talking about?
No, I mean, I think she’s had great fashion sense.
Each season Eleven has had a makeover montage.
The second was my sister, Kali, dressing me up as a punk.
And then the third season is Max letting me be who I want to be.
It was definitely well-needed.
For the scene where you read Hopper’s letter, were you reacting to anything?
Or was it just you in your head?
They had prerecorded David and they played it out loud.
I didn’t' want to read that speech.
I didn’t want to hear about it.
I didn’t want to rehearse it.
So it was definitely a raw emotion, especially because David Harbour and I are really close.
He is just one of the greatest men.
I think something I admire about David is he respects girls and women so much.
I’m so gutted and I was like, “Oh, my God, this is horrible.”
So the emotions were raw in that scene for sure.
What about shooting that final scene where you all say goodbye and Eleven leaves with the Byers?
It was as emotional as it looked.
We all said, “Let’s just imagine that this the end of filming forever.”
And we all start immediately crying as soon as they said, action.
It felt really genuine and it was like saying goodbye to best friends.
Eleven seems to lose her powers at the end of the season.
Do you think they’re gone forever?
Have they shared anything with you in regards to a potentialStranger Things 4?
I know things here and there, but nothing deep or something I could tell you about.
