It’s been a few months since the harrowing end of Stranger Things Season 4 on Netflix (“carnage,” described by fan-favorite actor Joseph Quinn) and quite frankly, we’re still recovering from the craziness. What will happen to Max? Is Vecna truly dead? Can we please bring back Eddie Munson somehow?!

While the writers have only released limited amounts of information about Stranger Things Season 5, we have gotten plenty of teasers from the cast themselves. The latest tidbit of input comes directly from Millie Bobby Brown (a.k.a. Eleven herself), who spoke to Total Film about her hopes for Season 5 of the hit Netflix show.

For starters, Millie doesn’t know what’s happening in season 5. "Probably when I’m filming, I won’t even know how it ends,” she explained. "I know as much as you know. I really, really am clueless. And, also, they don’t want to tell me. I’ve got a huge mouth.” So no spoilers from Millie — at least, not yet!

While the finale may already be mapped out, Millie suggested that the writers consider a non-traditional episode format. The actress, currently studying at Purdue University, explained, "I’d love to be the writer! I’d make it more of a musical. But, you know, they don’t entrust it in the hands of me, which they should." She joked, "Trust me: I can do the finale to Stranger Things, and it would be great. I think it should be like It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Did you ever see the musical episode? It needs to end like that – a musical episode."

Millie, who is currently playing Enola Holmes in the sequel film The Case of the Left-Handed Lady, also addressed rumors of a spin-off show. The actress explained that because of her busy schedule she doesn't have time to sign on to a spin-off Stranger Things show, but mentioned that she would be open to having another "bald-headed 10-year-old" take on the iconic role of Eleven.

And as for the waffle-loving, super-powered teen's future, Millie is open to suggestions. "I say things like [wanting Mike and Eleven to find happiness], but then I also said I want her to die. I really don’t know. And also, it’s not my choice. I say all these things really just under my breath, and then people take them and print them. And I’m like, no, no, no – I said that as a joke, that I wanted her to get married and work at a Target. That was a joke. But it’s maybe not a joke?"

Eleven would look great in Target red — just sayin'.
