I have a lot of fun with the script, with the lines, and I love working with Louis. Enola and Tewkesbury&#8217;s relationship is blossoming and growing in this film, and I was just ready to jump into it full force. It&#8217;s very exciting that Netflix wants to continue with the franchise,&#8221; she explained.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>The actress emphasised her enthusiasm for the collaborative process and her chemistry with Partridge on set, suggesting that these elements keep the role fresh and engaging across multiple films.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Growing comfort with returning to established characters<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When asked whether returning to a beloved character becomes easier or more challenging with each instalment as expectations mount, Brown offered a candid assessment. &#8220;It gets easier. Of course there is always the pressure of hope that the audience is enjoying the evolution of this character that I&#8217;m building, but I don&#8217;t necessarily think it gets harder,&#8221; she asserted.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/> <\/p>\n<div data-pos=\"0\" class=\"id-r-component iIpbx undefined  &#10;        \">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Millie Bobby Brown remains committed to strong female heroes&lt;br&gt;\" msid=\"132173244\" width=\"\" title=\"Brown says she wants to keep bringing capable and inspiring women to the screen.Image credit(Instagram)\" placeholdersrc=\"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/photo\/83033472.cms\" imgsize=\"\" resizemode=\"4\" offsetvertical=\"0\" placeholdermsid=\"47529300\" type=\"thumb\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/photo\/msid-132173244\/millie-bobby-brown-remains-committed-to-strong-female-heroesbr.jpg\" data-api-prerender=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Brown says she wants to keep bringing capable and inspiring women to the screen.Image credit(Instagram)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Brown&#8217;s experience across five seasons of &#8216;Stranger Things&#8217; and now three &#8216;Enola Holmes&#8217; films appears to have given her perspective on how to navigate the expectations that come with reprising iconic roles while maintaining creative satisfaction.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"33\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Millie Bobby Brown&#8217;s commitment to <keyword id=\"20052761\" type=\"General\" weightage=\"20\" keywordseo=\"strong-female-characters\" source=\"keywords\">strong female characters<\/keyword><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Brown discussed her deliberate focus on portraying strong female characters set in historical periods when women were underestimated and marginalised. &#8220;That&#8217;s what I believe in, bringing more women to screen, women that are capable and heroes in their own story.
