In an interview with Vanity Fair, the actress admitted: “I don’t have many friends, because of who I am. I didn’t go to school, so I don’t have the best social skills.”

She’ll be able to retire there when the algorithm is no longer counting on her. For now, after Stranger Things and the third Enola Holmes movie, she’s signed another film with Netflix. According to Bloomberg, in the third season of Stranger Things, she earned $250,000 per episode. Millie Bobby Brown is the closest thing to those classic movie stars who had exclusive contracts with a studio. It was their home — like Marilyn Monroe with Fox or James Stewart with MGM. The difference today is that she’s a movie star without stepping foot in a movie theater.

    I didn’t go to school, so I don’t have the best social skills.

    I did go to school and my social skills mirror those of a badger. I’m not sure if social skills are taught there. If, they failed me big time.
