David Harbour Breaks Silence on Reported Millie Bobby Brown Harassment Claim

The 51-year-old subsequently addressed the reports about the claim, clearing the air on any lingering bad blood between him and Brown.

“It’s simple. It was just a simple rupture-and-repair thing that, once we cleared everybody out of the way and talked to each other, we’re fine,” Harbour told Variety in an interview published June 10. “Everyone nowadays is very scared of talking about things. People are very scared of being human.”

“It’s a show that went on for 10 years,” Harbour explained. “We worked together for 10 years during her formative teenage years, playing father and daughter. I don’t know if people have families and friends that you spend a lot of time with for 10 years—you occasionally get in arguments, disagreements.” 

In fact, the Hellboy actor had also teased his still-untitled upcoming project with Brown at the time.

“You’ll see more of me and Millie—10 years wasn’t enough,” he shared. “There is a special bond there. I love her. She loves me.”

For her part, Brown also emphasized the close bond she and the Marvel actor share.

“Obviously I changed so much from Season one to Season five, and David was there through all of it,” she told the outlet in an email. “Over time, our relationship became much more collaborative creatively. When you work with someone for that many years, we could really push each other emotionally in scenes.”

“Even though the series has ended, there’s still a lot of gratitude,” she added. “Getting to share that experience with him for so many years is something I’ll always remember and value.”
