She made a name for herself going up against a weird creature in last year's TV hit Stranger Things. For her first movie role, Millie Bobby Brown is graduating to a monster of a whole new scale: she'll star in Godzilla: King Of The Monsters.
Michael Dougherty, who had been at work on the script with co-writer Zach Shields, was confirmed last week as the director of the sequel to 2014's Godzilla. We don't yet know what will happen in the new movie, but given the creature's warmer reception after fighting off mutant beasties in the previous outing, we'd imagine the big Z will be back to battle some more humungous competition. As for Brown? Details on her character have yet to be released.
The new film is part of Legendary's planned giant monster movies, which includes the incoming Kong: Skull Island, landing here on 10 March. King Of Monsters has been scheduled for 22 March 2019, while Godzilla Vs. Kong stomps in on 22c May 2020. We can only imagine that the clash between the pair comes when Kong arrives to inform Godzilla that there can be only one king of the monsters, and since he traditionally has it as part of his name, it's him. Then, they take the matter outside. Well, as outside as two creatures who don't fit into buildings can...
Brown, meanwhile, will be back on screens as Stranger Things' Eleven later this year.
