Up until now, the fate of Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) was still unclear, but TVLine has now confirmed that the incredibly-popular character will in fact return for Stranger Things Season 2! Furthermore, it looks like she will be a series regular for the Netflix phenomenon.
Brown will join already-announced new additions Sadie Sink (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) and Dacre Montgomery (the Red Ranger in the upcoming Power Rangers movie).
Sink will play a suspicious tomboy named Max, while Montgomery will play her older, hyper-confident ladies man step-brother Billy, who hides a violent/unstable streak. Meanwhile, Season 1 actors Joe Kerry (who played Steve Harrington) and Noah Schnapp (who played the missing Will Byers) will be back as series regulars. The 9-episode, 1984-set second season is coming in 2017 from series writers/creators Matt and Ross Duffer.
