Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown allegedly filed a harassment and bullying complaint against her co-star David Harbour. This seemingly happened ahead of filming the show’s fifth and final season. The final installment will be released soon on Netflix.
Millie Bobby Brown allegedly accuses David Harbour of bullying
Millie Bobby Brown, who plays Eleven in Netflix’s hit sci-fi drama, lodged a harassment and bullying claim against her on-screen father figure, David Harbour. The Daily Mail report says the allegations were “pages and pages long” and led to a months-long internal investigation by Netflix.
A source told the publication, “Millie Bobby Brown filed a harassment and bullying claim before they started shooting the last season. There were pages and pages of accusations. The investigation went on for months.”
The inquiry reportedly did not include any claims of sexual misconduct, and Netflix has yet to issue an official statement. While the streaming platform declined to confirm or deny the investigation, insiders suggest the company remained focused on ensuring production continued smoothly. One source commented, “Nothing is going to overshadow this, not even the leading man’s private life.”
Furthermore, the controversy surrounding Harbour extends beyond the Stranger Things set. The actor is also facing accusations of cheating amid his separation from singer Lily Allen. The couple, who married in 2020, are reportedly in the middle of divorce proceedings, with Allen’s upcoming album West End Girl including references to alleged cheating. Despite the strain, a source noted that Allen stood by Harbour during the internal probe. “Lily supported him throughout it all. It was a brutal time.”
As the investigation goes on, Brown was reportedly accompanied by a personal representative while filming Stranger Things Season 5, which is set to be released in three parts: Volume 1 on November 26, 2025, Volume 2 on December 25, and a theatrical finale on December 31.
While neither actor has publicly commented on the allegations, the reported internal investigation has cast a shadow over the much-anticipated finale.
