By the age of 14, Millie Bobby Brown already found herself among the 100 most influential people in the world. The British actress is best known for some sci-fi action as she portrays Eleven in the critically acclaimed Strangers Things. But that isn't all, she can be a damsel, but she isn't likely to be stressed. Or she can be investigating the erratic behaviors of titans living underwater.

She was recently seen looking for her brother, Michelle in Russo Brother's The Electric State who was last seen in a pod of a company that is into robot tech. It didn't go well. But it seems, she has already become Russo's favorite, so it shouldn't come as a surprise if they cast her in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Regarding that, they recently told Entertainment Tonight that,

"Millie’s on the list for every project. You can’t honestly, you just can’t ask for a bigger star right now… She's just so lovely, Yeah, we’ll put her in anything."

Russos has opened up innumerable possibilities for the actress to enter the expanding multiverse. So who might she be playing in there if cast? Maybe Kitty Pryde? Jean Grey? Gwen Stacy? Oh no, not Gwen!

With the way the Marvel Cinematic Universe is moving, it will enter new worlds where it could use some young heroes. Millie Bobby Brown could fit right in this future, especially for the new X-Men.

She is a fan favorite for Kitty Pryde, whom Elliot Page has portrayed mainly in past films. 21st Century Fox jumped into Disney's lap, Deadpool's Tim Miller was developing a solo movie based on the intangible mutant.

However, the project was scrapped and now we are looking at the Multiversal Saga. Which, for that matter, is a great way to give the character a solo movie afterward, a new beginning.

And not just Kitty, Millie Bobby Brown can pull off another character, Jean Grey, in future projects. After all, if X-Men is rebooted, she could be fitting for the character for a new love triangle alongside a Wolverine and a Cyclops, only if Marvel Studios chose to.

Now that Millie Bobby Brown is at the eleventh hour of portraying Eleven in Stranger Things, these might just be the perfect roles for her character in the TV series, which kind of resembles those supernatural abilities. Just hope she isn't bored of all the supernatural stuff.


She hasn't watched any Marvel movie to date

It's not like the actress isn't into Marvel films but her schedule usually keeps her from doing that, as she explained to Entertainment Tonight. Of course, she loves movies, "I'm an actor,” she emphasizes.

To add more credibility, in one interview with CinemaBlend, she said that Up and Toy Story are among her favorites. She loves them as they are impactful for young ones. Such movies spread good messages among them, she believes.

Even though Millie Bobby Brown hasn't watched any of the Marvel films, that won't make any difference if she joins the superhero bandwagon. On the contrary, it's good as she will bring her aura to that character for good.

Just think about Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye or Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow. They do share similarities but are given a different aura than their comic book counterparts. However, that's true to some extent for any comic book character who made it to the big screen.
