Before Millie Bobby Brown became one of the leading faces in the entertainment industry, she struggled for years to succeed in this field. The young actress, who gained significant fame for her role in the series 'Stranger Things', recently spoke in an interview about one of her most bitter experiences in the world of acting.

A Bitter Experience with Hugh Jackman

At around the age of twelve, she auditioned for the role of X-23 in the film 'Logan', which was one of the most important X-Men films in 2017, alongside Hugh Jackman. Although this role ultimately went to Dafne Keen, Millie remembers that day as a turning point in her life.

In this interview, Brown states that she felt defeated immediately after the audition, saying, 'I felt like I was broken. The thought that someone else was better for this role deeply affected me.' This experience not only highlights the challenges of the acting world but also illustrates how close hope and despair are in this industry.
