Netflix Scraps ‘Perfect’ Olympic Drama After Millie Bobby Brown Exit

Brown exited the project over creative differences, and Netflix dropped the sports drama before production was set to begin.

  • Netflix scrapped the upcoming sports drama 'Perfect' following lead actress Millie Bobby Brown's departure from the project, according to industry reports.
  • Sources say Brown departed due to creative differences with producers, prompting the streamer to halt the project entirely before summer production could begin.
  • The film was set to depict 1996 Olympian Kerri Strug, who famously completed a vault on an injured ankle to secure gold for the 'Magnificent Seven.'
  • Director Gia Coppola and screenwriter Ronnie Sandahl had been attached to the drama, which was preparing to enter production this summer before cancellation.
  • Netflix continues collaborating with Brown on several upcoming projects, including 'Enola Holmes 3,' 'Just Picture It,' and 'Nineteen Steps,' expected later this year.
