Well, now the famous star, Millie Bobby Brown, went through something like Joey in real life.

Fortunately, her parents supported her through everything. They even took baby Millie to the auditions while they nearly lost everything. The actor got a couple of jobs like Grey’s Anatomy, and Moder Family, but they weren’t her big break, though. Before she got the part in Stranger Things, she played a lead role in a show called Intruders. When she spoke about it, Millie said, “I had no idea what I was doing.”
However, baby Brown wasn’t a part of the press interviews, as the network wanted to protect her. But after that, when they didn’t have any money left, they moved back to England. One thing led to another, and she got the part in this amazingly hit show, Stranger Things. Then the rest is history, as you all know.
