Millie Bobby Brown’s flourishing year just got even busier with her latest role in the rom-com Just Picture It.
Brown, 21, shared a video via Instagram on Friday, September 26, with costar Gabriel LaBelle, smiling and laughing together while snapping playful pictures in a photo booth. “Meet Bea & Sam,” a black screen at the end of the clip said. “We are in production.”
Alongside the post, Brown wrote, “ready or not, here we come ✨@pcma.productions @netflix.”
Fans cannot wait to see Brown in her first-ever rom-com, with one commenting, “OMG I’M SO READY FOR THIS 😭😍,” underneath the post.
Stranger Things helped skyrocket Millie Bobby Brown to fame — but that doesn’t mean she wants to work on the show forever. “When you’re ready, you’re like, ‘All right, let’s do this. Let’s tackle this last senior year. Let’s get out of here,’” Brown, 19, said in her Glamour cover story, which was published on […]
“SO PROUD OF YOU MILLIE 🩷,” a second user wrote, while a third said, “Going to be the cutest movie 🎬 📱 ❤️.”
Additionally, Netflix shared a photo via Instagram of the costars sitting together on a beach chair at night. Both Brown and LaBelle, 23, sported wet hair, with the Stranger Things actress donning a red lacy bra and blue bottoms with a white overshirt. LaBelle, for his part, wore a gray sweatshirt and red shorts with a geometric pattern.
The upcoming movie “follows two college students who are surprised when their phones glitch and start showing them pictures from 10 years in the future — featuring them as a happily married couple with kids,” per Netflix.
Just Picture It will also star Amrit Kaur, Julian Dennison, Anthony Keyvan, Ben Jackson Walker, Brec Bassinger, Idina Menzel and Margo Martindale. Lee Toland Krieger signed on to direct, while Jesse Lasky wrote the script.
Brown’s husband, Jake Bongiovi, will serve as an executive producer on the film. It’s been quite a monumental summer for the couple, who announced they adopted their first child in August.
“This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption,” they wrote in a joint statement via Instagram last month. “We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy. And then there were 3. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi.”
Brown and Bongiovi, 23, tied the knot in a private May 2024 ceremony before having a larger celebration in September of that year. They marked the one-year anniversary of their second wedding this month with sweet tributes shared via Instagram on September 21.
“One year in the books, many more to go. I love you so much my beautiful wife. Happy anniversary 💕,” Bongiovi captioned a photo from their wedding day.
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi are getting swept up in wedding fever once again — though this time it wasn’t their own! The newlyweds look loved-up in a sweet new picture that the Stranger Things actress shared via Instagram on Thursday, August 14, from her older sister Paige’s wedding to fiancé Sam. In the […]
Brown shared a tribute on her own page, writing, “1 year married 🤍I love being your wife.” Bongiovi responded in the comments section, gushing, “Best wife ever I love you so much ❤️.”
In addition to all of the joyful news in their personal lives, Brown will be marking another milestone as she prepares to say goodbye to Stranger Things character Eleven in the show’s final season. She recalled the emotional final day of filming the hit Netflix series, in which she first began starring when she was 12 years old.
“I kind of was like, ‘Oh, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine.’ And then I think it was a defense mechanism, I think it was my coping,” Brown said while appearing on Today in March. “And then I realized I was not fine. I cried a lot.”
Brown said she became more aware of all of the “lasts” she would be having on set.
“[I] was like, ‘Oh my gosh, this is my last day. This is the last coffee I’m going to drink, the last mark I’m going to stand on,’” she reflected. “It all kind of came head-on, really fast.”
