It is none other than the victim of the show Eleven (played by Millie Bobby Brown) and the creator of the tragedies in the life of Eleven – Dr. Martin Brenner (Matthew Modine). Their on-screen relationship is far from clear. 

Despite Dr. Brenner being the reason for the tough life, Eleven is living in the present, yet there is an unsaid affectionate bond between both of them. 

The Stranger Things Millie Bobby Brown and Matthew Modine share a very complicated online chemistry. We have witnessed how Dr. Brenner, in spite of being the creator of the centric part of the whole series, is at Hawkins National Laboratory, where he performed psychokinetic experiments. 

Eleven was arguably nothing more than a scientific obsession to him. But we do get a vision of where Dr. Martin aka Modine holds a great deal of affection for Eleven and even Eleven aka Millie shares a strong bond with Dr. Brenner (Modine) as he plays a fatherly figure to him until we see Hopper’s return.

It is an unsaid assumption that we fans tend to believe that online chemistry between actors is a reflection of their offline chemistry…But in the case of The Stranger Things Millie Bobby Brown and Matthew Modine; the scenario is quite contrary to this!!

Despite the age difference between the actors, they share an immensely strong bond and the entire team has witnessed the gestures they have been doing for each other.

In an interview with Tudum, The Stranger Things Millie Bobby Brown and Matthew Modine shared how they both first met in 2015 when Millie was 11 years old and Modine was 56 years old. It is because of this off-screen relationship that the onscreen working becomes very smooth…!!

It was in July 2021, when Modine Tweeted: “One of the great pleasures of my career has been working beside and becoming dear friends with Millie Bobby Brown. I wish the whole world could know her heart.”

The team has been catching them sharing “I Love You” while both of them are shooting intense scenes. How cute is this now!!!!

From relaxing on sets to taking road trips together.. There is definitely a strong friendship bond between The Stranger Things Millie Bobby Brown and Matthew Modine. Oh, we are loving to see this friendship for a lifetime!!!

Closure

As we all now know that the onscreen life of The Stranger Things, Millie Bobby Brown, and Matthew Modine is absolutely the opposite of their off-screen life.
