Millie Bobby Brown is going the darker route with a badass character in Netflix&#039;s next thriller book adaptation and fans are going crazy.

Fans Can’t Get Over Millie Bobby Brown’s New Role as a Sapphic Young Con Artist

Netflix is desperate to keep its talent in the house. At least that’s what it
looks like. Millie Bobby Brown is tied with more Netflix projects than you can
imagine. The actress just wrapped up Stranger Things season 4 and is gearing up
for the release of Enola Holmes 2, but she still has more coming. Her next might
be a thriller where she plays a sapphic con artist. Netflix reportedly signed
her on for the Girls I’ve Been back in 2020. Ozark’s Jason Bateman is also
involved with the project. Enough to pique your interest yet? 

@Lgbtzenin is already “vibrating at the speed of light” at the thought of Brown
playing a bisexual character!

WHAT IS THE GIRLS I’VE BEEN ABOUT? 

Considered an exhilarating thriller, the movie tells the story of a bisexual
teenage girl Nora O’ Molley. Growing up under the wing of her con artist mother,
who mostly targeted criminal men, Nora picked up some exceptional skills of
manipulation and persuasion from her mother. Little did she know that these
skills would come in handy when she had to get her girlfriend and ex-boyfriend
out of a dangerous situation in a bank!

As of now, only Millie Bobby Brown is the sole cast member. She is producing the
flick through her production house, PCMA. As per the last report, Bateman is
also onboard as executive producer through Aggregate Films.

WHEN WILL THE FILM ARRIVE ON NETFLIX?

Netflix [https://netflixjunkie.com/categories/news] adaptation of Tessa Sharpe’s
novel Girls I’ve Been was announced
[https://deadline.com/2020/07/millie-bobby-brown-netflix-the-girls-ive-been-jason-bateman-1202997741/]
in 2020 at the height of the pandemic. It’s probably still in production because
we haven’t gotten any updates yet. Since Millie Bobby Brown was too busy filming
Stranger Things [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] and Enola
Holmes [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/enola-holmes/] 2, the project probably got
delayed. Also, the pandemic posed a lot of problems as well.

Until further updates regarding the project arrive, you can still get your hands
on the copy [https://www.amazon.com/Girls-Ive-Been-Tess-Sharpe/dp/0593353803] of
Tessa Sharpe’s novel. And who knows, we might get Brown’s fantasy movie
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-millie-bobby-brown-to-pair-up-with-maid-star-nick-robinson-in-a-fantasy-film-involving-dragons-kingdoms-and-sacrifices/]
before this!
