Known for playing Eleven in "Stranger Things," Millie Bobby Brown, 12, is one of the most popular actors of today. Recently, the teen star talked to "Breaking Bad" alum Aaron Paul about acting and playing one of the main characters in the new Netflix series created by the Duffer brothers.
In an interview with Elle, Paul asked Brown if she always knew she could act. The "Stranger Things" star replied, "No. I never knew, like, exactly what I wanted to do. You know, I'm 12."
According to Brown, she sort of knew she was a bit of a drama queen and was not a normal child as she always threw tantrums. She added that she knew she "wanted to do something."
Paul also asked Brown if people are stopping her on the street. She said while her hair has grown and she has just so she looks very much the opposite of Eleven, she gets recognized on the plane and at airports sometimes.
For Brown, it is always very nice to see what the fans' perspectives are, which for her is really quite amazing. Playing Eleven in "Stranger Things" is amazing and very overwhelming in the best way for the actress.
Brown told Paul that she is very grateful for the success of the Netflix series. She pointed out that she, the Buffer brothers and the entire cast of "Stranger Things" all knew what they wanted to achieve with this show.
Before playing Eleven in "Stranger Things," Brown appeared in five series. These are "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland," "Intruders," "NCIS," "Modern Family" and "Grey's Anatomy."
Paul, on the other hand, is known for playing Jesse Pinkman in "Breaking Bad" from 2008 to 2013. He is also set to reprise his role as Eddie Lane in "The Path" Season 2, which is set to premiere in 2017.
On Aug. 30, Paul was spotted in the Harlem section of New York City filming "The Path" Season 2, Just Jared reported. Among his co-stars who joined him on set were Amy Forsyth, Kyle Allen, Michelle Monaghan and Hugh Dancy.
