Millie Bobby Brown will star in and produce Non-Refundable, a comedy for Netflix, opposite Jack Innanen. Deadline broke the casting on 10 November 2026 as an exclusive.

The film follows Nate, played by Innanen, and Dani, played by Brown. They are an ex-couple who have split up but are still on the hook for their wedding venue. Neither of them wants to be the one left holding the bill, so they make a plan that goes wrong in a hurry.

According to Deadline, the two travel to Mexico out of spite. Once there, they try to show each other up with new dates. The story is a comedy about two people who cannot quite let go, even when they want to.

The script is by David Bernstein. It is a spec script, meaning he wrote it on his own rather than on a studio's commission. Paul Briganti is attached to direct, which is industry shorthand for a director who has signed on to the project but has not yet started filming.

Brown is also one of the producers. Producers handle the money, the schedule and the crew, and they often shape a film long before cameras roll. Deadline lists Brown and Jake Bongiovi as producing for PCMA, with Andrew Swett and Aaron Ryder for Embrace Entertainment. Will Speck and Josh Gordon are producing for Speck + Gordon Inc.

Brown is best known as the star of Stranger Things on Netflix, so a comedy from the same streaming service with her name at the top will draw attention. Her move into producing adds a second role to the project, not just a leading part. Deadline's report describes the film as an early step in that work, with the rest of the production still to come.
