Millie Bobby Brown is best known for her role in Stranger Things as Eleven. Although only a teenager, her stock in the world of acting has already risen massively since starring on the show and she is now involved in numerous Hollywood blockbusters.
Most recently, she starred in the film Enola Holmes – and played the role of Enola, the younger sister of Sherlock Holmes. This film features a character who was called Edith and is a proclaimed Jiu Jitsu ‘master’. Recently, Millie Bobby Brown referenced her training during an interview on Good Morning America. She claimed, “I don’t think it’s easy to just do Jiu-Jitsu in itself. But yes, obviously doing it in a corset and heels made it a bit more difficult. Don’t get me wrong but I think it made it more fun”. With this said, she may eventually use her BJJ skills in films which have become a growing trend recently where movies such as John Wick and Black Panther have used moves in their fight scenes.
Whilst little is known about her current rank, there is evidence of her receiving her second stripe on her white belt so it’s fair to say she’s at least a few months deep. Watch out Demi Lovato, you may have competition!
