Social Climbers Charts: Millie Bobby Brown, ‘Stranger Things’ Rule After Show’s Nov. 6 Social Media Celebration

Millie Bobby Brown vaults back to No. 1 on The Hollywood Reporter‘s Top Actors chart for the first time in a year, crowning the Nov. 20-dated list.

THR‘s Social Climbers charts are rankings of the most popular entities on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube, with global data provided by social media analytics company MVPindex. The chart’s methodology blends engagement to entities’ social media accounts along with weekly additions of followers/subscribers. The latest tracking week ended Nov. 12.

Brown rises to No. 1 for the first time since the list dated Nov. 21, 2018, returning with a total of 26.8 million Instagram favorites. The catalyst? Brown celebrated, as did many of her co-stars, Stranger Things Day on Nov. 6, an occurrence that’s also reflected on the Top Scripted list, where Stranger Things revisits No. 1. (Nov. 6 is the day in the show’s lore on which Will Byers [Noah Schnapp] disappears during the first season.) The Netflix show also posted a script from its fourth season to social media, furthering its return to No. 1.
