Millie Bobby Brown, the breakout star of the Netflix series Stranger Things, won hearts as she battled forces in the Upside Down. But now it looks like she'll be facing an even more dangerous enemy—or at least a bigger one.
According to Deadline, the actress will star in the upcoming film Godzilla: King of the Monsters. This will be her very first movie role.
The film, which is scheduled to come out in March of 2019, will reportedly take place in the same "cinematic universe" as the other flicks by Legendary and Warner Bros. A 2015 press release about the world explains that it will bring together Godzilla, King Kong (Kong: Skull Island is already almost here), and other famous movie monsters such as King Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters will be directed by Michael Dougherty, who co-wrote the script with his frequent collaborator Zach Shields. The two previously worked together on the 2015 Christmas-themed horror film Krampus.
Monster movie fans who have been paying attention will not be surprised at all of this: the news of a sequel to the 2014 Godzilla reboot was first announced nearly three years ago.
