Eleven Was Originally a Boy

What if I told you Eleven was never meant to be a girl? Yes, when Stranger Things

was first written, Eleven was supposed to be a boy. The Duffer Brothers imagined a quiet,

mysterious boy with superpowers. But during auditions, Millie Bobby Brown walked in.

Her performance was so powerful that the creators instantly changed the script and rewrote

Eleven as a girl. That one decision changed everything. Eleven became the heart of the show,

the strongest character, and one of the most iconic roles in Netflix history. And the craziest

part? Millie was only 11 years old when she got the role. Follow for more
