Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour are set to share the screen again after the conclusion of Stranger Things, with Netflix ordering a new untitled spy drama from ‘Adolescence’ co-creator Jack Thorne and A24. The pair, who portrayed the beloved father-daughter duo Eleven and Jim Hopper throughout the hit series, will once again play those roles, while also serving as executive producers on the project.
The series follows Matt Wolfe, a disgraced former FBI agent turned security expert (played by Harbour) who is forced back into the field after his estranged daughter, Rebecca, an FBI agent portrayed by Brown, disappears during a mission. Netflix executive Jinny Howe said the combination of the pair’s established chemistry and the emotional father-daughter story made the series an exciting addition to the streaming service’s lineup. The streamer has also given the drama a straight-to-series order, although the project has not yet received a title or premiere date.
The announcement also arrives after months of speculation about the actors’ working relationship following reports of tension during the filming of the final season of Stranger Things. Both Brown and Harbour have publicly said any disagreements were resolved, describing their bond as strong after nearly a decade of working together.
