Could Millie Bobby Brown be the next major star to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)? The possibility is gaining traction, with speculation that the Stranger Things actress might make her way into Avengers: Doomsday or Avengers: Secret Wars, the highly anticipated films set to conclude Marvel’s Multiverse Saga.
Russo Brothers Leave the Door Open for Brown’s MCU Debut
Joe and Anthony Russo, the directing duo behind Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, recently sat down with Entertainment Tonight while promoting their Netflix blockbuster The Electric State, starring Brown. When asked whether she could join the MCU, Joe Russo had nothing but praise:
“Millie is on the list for every project. You just can’t ask for a bigger star right now. She’s passionate about the work, promoting the movie, and making the crew feel good. She’s just lovely. Yeah, we’ll put her in anything.”
Brown’s Versatility Makes Her a Strong Contender
The Russos further emphasized Brown’s potential, stating, “The exciting thing about Millie is that, even though she has done some wonderful work so far, she is young, and she has characters in her that audiences cannot even guess at yet.”
Given their experience working with her on The Electric State, the directors know firsthand that she has what it takes to handle big-budget productions—an important factor when considering a role in an Avengers movie.
Speculation on Brown’s Potential Role
While no official reports confirm that Brown is in talks with Marvel Studios, her schedule could align with such an opportunity. With Stranger Things set to conclude with its upcoming fifth season, the actress might be open to another long-term franchise commitment.
Marvel is also rumored to be developing an X-Men reboot, making it possible that Brown could take on a significant role. Some fans have even speculated that she could be a great fit for Rogue. If Marvel were to cast her, it would likely be in a high-profile role that shapes the future of the franchise.
Marvel’s Next Phase: What We Know So Far
The upcoming Avengers films are shaping up to be colossal events. Robert Downey Jr. is set to return—not as Iron Man, but as Doctor Doom, the iconic villain of Fantastic Four. Additionally, many familiar faces from the MCU’s past are expected to make appearances, alongside new actors who will carry the franchise forward.
Could Millie Bobby Brown be one of them? Time will tell, but given her star power, talent, and the Russo Brothers’ endorsement, it’s a possibility fans will be watching closely.
Release Dates
- Avengers: Doomsday is slated for release on May 1, 2026.
- Avengers: Secret Wars will follow on May 7, 2027.
For now, all eyes are on Marvel Studios to see if Brown will officially join the MCU’s growing roster of talent.
