Do Millie Bobby Brown's talents never end? Probably not, so the news that she stepped behind the camera on the set of Stranger Things 4 – in order to direct young actor Martie Blair in portraying the young Eleven – won't come as much of a surprise. And sounds like she did a pretty great job, too.
Martie haș since shared some behind-the-scene shots of her work on the show and her collaboration with Millie, telling fans that she was "such as inspiration" to her.
These two seem happier than ever.
"Thank you @milliebobbybrown for being such an inspiration to me, when I showed up on set, you came right up to me," she captioned one photo of the pair working together. "You made me feel so comfortable and welcomed. Thanks for spending time with me and helping me make my scenes AWESOME!!!"
The pair even have their own iconic acronym nicknames. Martie captioned another gallery of photos: "Cheeky ladies!!!! MBB + MMB... Thank you @milliebobbybrown for being such a great role model, I will be forever grateful. #st4."
High praise indeed. Stranger Things' writers' Twitter account, @strangerwriters, also shared a picture of the twosome working on set, with the message: "Shout-out to Martie Blair, who played young Eleven, and to Millie, who directed her every step of the way."
This. Is. Adorable.
Fans have been showering Martie with good reviews after her turn as young Eleven, too.
"You're such an amazing actress, I can't wait to see your next role!!!" one wrote on Instagram. Another couldn't believe how similar Martie looks to her co-star Millie Bobby Brown (or MBB, of course), replying: "I thought it was CGI how they got young Eleven!"

The pair do share an uncanny resemblance, made even more so with their shared shaved heads, Eleven style. Martie even shared the process of changing her hair for the role with her Instagram followers, having had long brown hair previously. "Haircut day!!!! This day changed me forever!!!!! I’m great full for the experience, I will never forget how I felt after shaving my hair," she wrote.
If that's not full commitment to the role, we don't know what is. We predict big things for Martie...
