Why Millie Bobby Brown Accused Her 'Reel-Dad'? Did Netflix Launch An Inquiry Against David Harbour?

Millie Bobby Brown, actress of Stranger Things, has allegedly filed a complaint against her co-star David Harbour, accusing him of ‘bullying and harassing’ her during the filming of the show's impending fifth and final season. The bombshell charges come as Netflix prepares for the grand finale of one of its most popular worldwide properties.

Millie Bobby Brown filed a complaint against David Harbour

According to a RadarOnline.com report, Brown, who plays ‘Eleven’ in the popular sci-fi drama, filed a formal complaint against Harbour, known for his role as ‘Chief Jim Hopper.’ The complaint is said to have been submitted before filming for Season 5 began, and Netflix is alleged to have launched an ongoing internal investigation. Sources close to the production revealed that the accusations are non-sexual in nature and involve conflict involving ‘bullying and harassment.’ Specific details about the alleged incidents have not been disclosed, but insiders suggest that tensions between Brown and Harbour may have been simmering for some time.

As of now, the streaming giant Netflix has not commented on the issue amid growing speculation. The publication reported that an unnamed insider said Netflix wants to keep the focus on Stranger Things' finale rather than on off-screen drama. According to the source, everyone involved is under pressure to maintain professionalism during production to avoid overshadowing the final season. Neither Brown nor Harbour has made any public statements addressing the matter. While fans have long admired their on-screen father-daughter bond, reports suggest their real-life relationship may have become strained during recent filming.

The series blends elements of science fiction, supernatural horror, and nostalgic 1980s pop culture, creating a unique cinematic world that captivated audiences of all ages.
