Millie Bobby Brown described what types of boundaries she has set for their real adult relationship

  • Millie Bobby Brown and Henry Cavill’s friendship isn’t like her “schoolmate” bond with her Stranger Things co-stars.
  • The actress said they have “terms and conditions” for their relationship.
  • Director Harry Bradbeer says the two had an “interesting, enjoyable dynamic” on set.

Millie Bobby Brown’s characters are masters of investigation, but there is one case she can’t solve in real life.

Henry Cavill, her fellow Enola Holmes 2 star, recently asked Millie, 18, about the limits of her “very good” friendship. In an interview with Deadline that was published on Nov. 2, Millie stated that their friendship is not like the “schoolmate” bond she has with her Stranger Things co-stars, Noah Schnapp and Charlie Heaton.

“With Henry, it feels like a real adult relationship. Like a really healthy one,” Millie said, “One that we have terms and conditions. I know Henry. He has terms and conditions with me.”

And just what do these terms and conditions entail? For starters, the she noted, “I’m not allowed to ask about his personal life.”

“It’s like, ‘Millie, shut up. No.’ And I’m like ‘Understood.’ Whereas with the Stranger Things kids, it’s different,” she continued. “There’s no boundaries because it’s like we’re all siblings. But with Henry, he’s very strict with me, which I appreciate.”

Describing Henry as having a “very rational approach” to things like his character Sherlock, Enola Holmes 2 director Harry Bradbeer told the outlet that the Man of Steel actor and Millie had an “interesting, enjoyable dynamic” on set.

“They’re always poking at each other,” Harry said. “And Millie tickles him up a little bit and surprises him. And he goes with it.

The 39-year-old doesn’t have any sisters of his own, so the Millie claimed she drew on her family relationships when it comes to her bond with him.

“So, for him, it must be completely different. I have a sister, a brother, and an older brother. So, I’m very much used to that kind of dynamic,” Millie said. “I had to implement a lot of that into my relationship with Henry offscreen and onscreen and just pull him out of his comfort zone.”
