Millie Bobby Brown says she slipped into the writers' room and saw a board revealing the Stranger Things finale, leading to tears at the final table read.

Millie Bobby Brown said she learned the ending of the final season of Stranger Things long before her castmates. She explained that she switched into the sleuthing mindset of her Enola Holmes character and literally slipped into the writers’ room. There she found a huge board laying out the key final twists—and realized she now knew how the story would end ahead of everyone else. A mischievous move, but effective.

According to Brown, the cast at the time was still guessing about the finale, while she had already read everything. She joked that she sometimes even blackmails the directors, prompting laughter in the studio.

When the final table read took place, emotions overwhelmed everyone involved. Brown recalls the team couldn’t stay at the table and moved to the couches—the tension was so intense that the actors cried for two hours.

The story of a young show-business star finding out the secret ending first is sparking lively discussion among fans; the series has long been a cult fixture, and intrigue seems to follow it.

It seems viewers will have to wait a little longer to finally see what moved the cast so deeply.
