Millie Bobby Brown surprises fans at special event
Millie Bobby Brown has surprised a group of fans at Madame Tussauds in London for the unveiling of her Enola Holmes figure.
The Stranger Things star met 26 lucky fans who won a competition to witness the unveiling at the museum on Monday night (June 17).
Brown worked with Madame Tussauds London in the summer of 2023, when she invited its artists to her Atlanta family home for a sitting.
As part of the process, she worked through a series of poses and expressions for the character, and sat with the team to provide them with reference notes and hundreds of accurate measurements.

Speaking about the new figure's launch, Steve Blackburn, general manager at Madame Tussauds London, said: "Move over, Sherlock – there's a new Holmes in Baker Street!
"It's been truly amazing to work with Millie Bobby Brown in bringing her much-loved character Enola Holmes to life.
"We can see a lot of similarities between Millie and Enola; both represent smart, confident, and rebellious women challenging and defying societal norms – and are role models for a new generation."
Blackburn also highlighted the connection between Enola Holmes, Madame Tussauds London and Sherlock Holmes' fictional residence on Baker Street.

The Sherlock Holmes Museum, at the real-life 221b Baker Street, is also just a few minutes' walk away from Madame Tussauds.
"It's not lost on us that Baker Street, where our attraction is based, is known for its decades-long link to her famous brother Sherlock – but now it is Enola's time," his statement continued.
"And, we can't help but think Marie Tussaud, the powerhouse female founder of our now global attraction would have felt a strong affinity with Enola.
"The icing on the cake has been working with Millie to create this incredible fan surprise and we're so pleased people love the figure!"

While a third Enola Holmes movie is in development, it seems it may be a while before Brown returns in the shoes of the teen sleuth.
She will also return to her other beloved role of Eleven in Stranger Things for the fifth and final season of the Netflix hit series.
The Enola Holmes movies are streaming on Netflix. Millie Bobby Brown's Enola Holmes figure will go on public display from Friday, July 19 at Madame Tussauds London when its new Film and TV-themed zone opens.
