Her name might be Millie Bobby Brown, but this week, she's serving blonde.

Taking to Instagram earlier this week (Sunday 2 Feb), the Stranger Things actress shared a series of snaps donning a bleach blonde wig, which she paired with unusually-heavy glam and a black body-con dress.

Her drastic change in appearance has since sparked several theories from fans - including one, which suggests that Brown's new get-up actually forms part of an upcoming movie role...

For those who haven't yet taken a peek at Brown's latest Instagram upload, two days ago, she shared three photos to her personal profile - the first of which was littered with noughties-esque emojis.

As well as a splash of the word 'hot', her first super-glam selfie bared several butterfly splotches, and a 'System error!' message - emanating those which previously appeared for MSN users.

In the picture, the Enola Holmes actress could be seen pouting, brandishing a deep taupe lipstick, a smokey eye look and shabby-chic blonde wig - which also incorporated a set of Pamela Anderson-inspired bangs.

A second snap saw the actress wearing the same outfit whilst posing on a wooden floor, whilst a third saw Brown standing upright, looking downwards whilst running her hands through her new bleached hair.

The British-based star's new look being worlds away from her usual, au natural get-up has naturally set tongues wagging, with many fans wondering what occasion could have prompted such a change.

And as we say, amongst the most popular theories being discussed in the post's comments is one which predicts she's set to appear in an upcoming Britney Spears biopic.

"Oh s**t. Is she actually playing Britney?!" one asked, as another guessed: "Ready to play Britney now."

"BRITNEY IS COMING," a third predicted, whilst another questioned, "BRITNEY???"

Variety reported back in August that University Pictures had won the rights to a movie adaptation of Britney's 2024 best-selling memoir The Woman In Me, adding that Wicked director Jon M. Chu had been hired for the gig.

It was also revealed by the outlet that producer Marc Platt was involved.

The news came after the singer herself teased a something exciting on her horizon on X (formerly Twitter), writing: "Excited to share with my fans that I've been working on a secret project with #MarcPlatt.

"He’s always made my favorite movies … stay tuned."

The self-written book detailed 43-year-old Britney's rise to fame, going from the Mickey Mouse Club to one of the best-selling female artists of all time.

As well as touching on her relationship with ex-beau Justin Timberlake, the memoir went into detail about the controversial conservatorship that the mother-of-two had been placed under following a public breakdown, as well as her subsequent 2021 release.

Whilst the names of several other huge-name stars have since been thrown around - including the likes of Sydney Sweeney, Dove Cameron and Emma Roberts - during conversations of who'll play the 'Oops, I Did It Again' hit-maker, it could very well be MBB.

Speaking to Drew Barrymore in 2022, the young star claimed it had always been an ambition to portray Britney.

"Just growing up in the public eye, watching her videos, watching interviews of how when she was younger," she previously gushed.

"I don't know her, but when I look at pictures of her, I feel like I could tell her story in the right way, and hers only."
