Millie Bobby Brown cried when she saw the Stranger Things finale for the first time

In the clip, Millie said through tears: "Thank you for all these years. I appreciate it."

She sniffled as she removed her headphones and then exclaimed: "F***. This damn show!"

She captioned the footage: "Watching THAT scene for the first time."

While the scene saw pals Will Byers (Noah Schnapp), Dustin Henderson (Gaten Matarazzo), Lucas Sinclair (Caleb McLaughlin) and Max Mayfield (Sadie Sink) tearfully dec lare they believed Mike's vision for Eleven, not all of the cast agreed.

Sadie told The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon earlier this week: "I think she's dead.

"I think Mike's story is just one last story, and then they say goodbye to childhood."

She added of her perception of the ending: "I think it's stronger."

Stranger Things showrunners Ross and Matt Duffer previously admitted they wanted to leave Eleven's fate open to viewer interpretation.

Matt Duffer told Netflix's Tudum: "What we wanted to do was confront the reality of what her situation was after all of this and how could she live a normal life.

"Mike is the optimist of the group and has chosen to believe in that story."

Ross added: "She lives on in their hearts, whether that's real or not.

"For us and our writers, we didn't want to take her powers away.

"She represents magic in a lot of ways and the magic of childhood. For our characters to move on and for the story of Hawkins and the Upside Down to come to a close, Eleven had to go away.

"We thought it would be beautiful if our characters continued to believe in that happier ending even if we didn't give them a clear answer to whether that's true or not.

"The fact that they're believing in it, we just thought it was such a better way to end the story and a better way to represent the closure of this journey and their journey from children to adults."
