Things We Saw Today: Eleven Takes on Godzilla: King of the Monsters

It looks like Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown just can’t keep away from monsters. The erstwhile Eleven stars in this trailer for Godzilla: King of the Monsters, the sequel to 2014’s Godzilla. The film also stars Kyle Chandler and Vera Farmiga as Brown’s parents, who are trying to save the world from the monster invasion. Warner Bros. released a statement describing the premise below:

“The new story follows the heroic efforts of the crypto-zoological agency Monarch as its members face off against a battery of god-sized monsters, including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the three-headed King Ghidorah. When these ancient super-species – thought to be mere myths – rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity’s very existence hanging in the balance.”

Chelsea was born and raised in New Orleans, which explains her affinity for cheesy grits and Britney Spears. An pop culture journalist since 2012, her work has appeared on Autostraddle, AfterEllen, and more. Her beats include queer popular culture, film, television, republican clownery, and the unwavering belief that 'The Long Kiss Goodnight' is the greatest movie ever made. She currently resides in sunny Los Angeles, with her husband, 2 sons, and one poorly behaved rescue dog. She is a former roller derby girl and a black belt in Judo, so she is not to be trifled with. She loves the word “Jewess” and wishes more people used it to describe her.
