Millie Bobby Brown Dives Into Wildest 'Stranger Things' Fan Theories On 'The Tonight Show'

Millie Bobby Brown's Fan Theory Adventure

Welcome to the world of "Stranger Things" conspiracy theories, where every fan seems to have a prediction that's wilder than the last! Millie Bobby Brown, the star who brings Eleven to life on the hit Netflix show, recently dropped by "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" to give her take on some of these speculative gems. With the recent release of "Stranger Things 5," fan theories are spreading like a California wildfire, and Jimmy was more than eager to throw some of the most intriguing ones her way.

Did Eleven Lead the Demogorgon to Will?

First up, a theory as twisty as an LA freeway during rush hour: Eleven might have used her powers to guide the Demogorgon to Will back in Season 1. "When the Demogorgon is first chasing Will in Season 1, the lock on his front door opens on its own from the inside. So Eleven may have been involved and used her powers to help it take Will," Jimmy suggested. Millie was floored, replying, "I've actually never heard that one! Did that happen?" Her surprise was genuine, as she added, "I can't even believe that people remembered that! Wow I didn't know that, I mean... I can't confirm or deny it."

Mind Flayer and Vecna's True Roles

Next on the list was a theory regarding the Mind Flayer and Vecna's dynamic. "Vecna is not the main villain. He's just being controlled by the Mind Flayer," Jimmy proposed. Millie, gauging the audience's vibe, responded, "Mmm...So I feel this is a very agreed-upon theory.. okay. I mean yeah, that's great." Clearly, this one's not breaking news for fans!

Outlandish Family Ties and D&D Theories

Another theory had fans questioning family bonds more melodramatically than a soap opera cliffhanger: "Karen Wheeler, Mike, Nancy and Holly's mom, is Vecna's little sister," Jimmy quipped. Millie couldn't hold back her amusement, instantly labeling it "hilarious!"

Then came a classic '80s throwback idea – the entire series being just a game of Dungeons and Dragons. Millie's reaction? A playful head shake and, "I've seen a few, I've actually seen one theory about this and I thought 'Hm...'" She noted another similar theory she'd encountered but left fans with a cheeky grin when Jimmy asked if she found it in the Duffer Brothers' office.

Time-Travel and Twin Twists

Finally, the theories wrapped up with a time-bending twist: Eleven and Will are twins separated at birth, and Eleven's time-traveled to the present day. Millie's friendship with co-star Noah Schnapp came into play as she humorously tweaked it to "Noah and Millie were separated at birth," delighting the audience. When confronted with a meme about Eleven's birth date, Millie simply laughed, "They've really done me up here, haven't they? Every Season is a meme somehow of El or even just me..."

It's no wonder the "Stranger Things" universe continues to spark a frenzy of fan theories, each as imaginative as a script from Hollywood's golden age. Fans and Millie alike seem to enjoy the wild ride!
