Netflix Acquires Rights to Millie Bobby Brown & The Russo Brothers’ The Electric State

Netflix has acquired the rights to Millie Bobby Brown and The Russo Brothers new pic, The Electric State. The news first broke on Millie teaming with the Russo Brothers at the end of 2020.

Based on the graphic novel by Simon Stålenhag, “Set in an alternative future, it tells the story of a teenage girl (Millie Bobby Brown) who realizes that a strange but sweet robot who comes to her has actually been sent by her missing brother. She and the robot set out to find the brother in an imaginative world of humans mixing with all manner of robots, uncovering a grand conspiracy in the process.”

Production was supposed to begin in 2021, but now it will begin this coming Fall. Rumor has it, Chris Pratt will join Brown in the movie, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
