Apart from Millie Bobby Brown, the film boasts a talented cast, including Nick Robinson from Jurassic World, Angela Bassett from Black Panther, and Ray Winstone from Black Widow.
Millie Bobby Brown is best known for her role as Eleven in Netflix's Stranger Things, which is gearing up for its fifth and final season.
The delay in the production and release of both Stranger Things and Damsel is partly attributed to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes in Hollywood. There had been speculation about using AI technology to make the teenage cast look younger, given the gap between seasons.
However, executive producer Shawn Levy clarified that such technology would not be used, expressing confidence in the cast's ability to bring their characters to life.
