00:00 Hi, I'm Millie Bobby Brown.

00:01 I want to tell you why I made my new movie, Damsel.

00:04 I really wanted to make it because I've never done

00:07 a role like this, and I was really excited

00:09 to do something a bit grittier and mature.

00:11 I made it to not only challenge myself,

00:14 but to have young girls and boys look up to someone

00:18 that started as a victim, turned themselves into a warrior,

00:21 to use all of the things that were meant to restrict her

00:24 into using them as her weapon to protect herself

00:26 and to become this warrior that she didn't know

00:29 was inside of her.

00:30 It was a huge challenge for me to not have somebody

00:32 to work against.

00:34 I work with people, and they give me so much energy,

00:36 so I'm able to bounce off of it.

00:37 But you have to bring it at 7 AM on your own.

00:40 There's no give and take.

00:41 For me to be alone for that long,

00:43 it's like you can't get sick, you can't get injured,

00:45 you can't miss a day.

00:46 It's very go, go, go.

00:47 Everyone's reliant on you.

00:49 I had to put everything aside to truly transform into Elodie.

00:53 And then just to get there, to put the wig on,

00:55 to get my scars, my bruises, and my dirt,

00:58 the exact way it was the day before.

01:00 Took me about two hours.

01:01 I actually remember once I ran so much,

01:03 I couldn't step over my baby gate for my dogs.

01:06 I had to climb over it.

01:08 I was like, "This is how I know that I'm running

01:10 so much in this film."

01:12 It was a really challenging job.

01:14 There was a lot of metaphors and a lot of meaning

01:16 that I think could help a younger audience

01:18 kind of navigate their life.

01:20 There's a piece of Elodie in everyone,

01:21 and you can channel that whenever you want to.

01:24 Thank you for listening.

01:25 You can watch "Damsel" only on Netflix.
