Millie Bobby Brown has criticized the leaking of her acting contracts, calling it dangerous for young stars. In an interview with Vanity Fair, the actress opened up about the challenges of growing up in the spotlight and the risks of contract leaks.
Brown’s contracts for Enola Holmes 2 and Stranger Things have been leaked online in the past, with reports revealing that she earned $10 million for Enola Holmes 2, a record for actors under 20.
Additionally, it was reported that Brown made at least $250,000 per episode of Stranger Things starting from season three. Although Brown did not confirm or deny these amounts, she expressed concern over the impact of making such information public.
“Contracts for teen stars should be protected,” Brown said. She emphasized that exposing such details puts children at risk, especially in an industry where they may not fully understand the consequences. She added that her parents and Netflix have always been protective of her, but not all young stars have that support.
Brown also reflected on her upbringing and the role her parents played in guiding her through the tough parts of fame. “My parents taught me how to say ‘no’ at a very young age,” she explained. “My mom is wise and advocates for herself. My dad has always pushed me to stand up for myself.”
The actress shared how difficult her early fame was, especially the harsh treatment from the media. She recalled a time when paparazzi took invasive photos of her at a fashion shoot in Australia when she was just 13 years old. “There should be more laws protecting kids from paparazzi exploitation,” Brown said.
Despite these challenges, Brown credits her parents for helping her manage the pressures of fame. “The trust and love my parents gave me helped me fight for myself and others,” she said.
Brown’s next project is The Electric State, which will premiere on Netflix on March 14, starring alongside Chris Pratt.
