Thunderbolts* star David Harbour is best known for playing father figures in movies and TV shows he's been cast in, which include the MCU flicks and Stranger Things. Now, several tabloids, including RadarOnline (via SFF Gazette), are sharing supposed accusations about the actor's alleged misconduct on the Netflix show set.

Brown is said to have reportedly accused Harbour, who plays ex-police chief and Eleven's adoptive father Jim Hopper, of "bullying and harassing" her before filming Stranger Things season 5.

Harbour was allegedly the subject of an "internal inquiry after the British actress filed a formal complaint." Though he was not accused of any sexual misconduct.

A source tells the mentioned sites, "Millie Bobby Brown filed a harassment and bullying claim before they started shooting the last season. There were pages and pages of accusations. The investigation went on for months."

A Netflix source responded to these claims, "It will be a theatrical event. Nothing is going to overshadow this, not even the leading man's private life."

The 21-year-old Damsel star is said to have had a "personal representative with her on set throughout the filming of the final series," with another insider source explaining, "It's unfortunate that Mr. Harbour's personal woes have hit the headlines at a time when Stranger Things fans were looking forward to a global celebration to mark the end of the groundbreaking show."

As of writing, it remains unclear what became of the investigation, but it is worth mentioning that Harbour is still set to reprise his Hopper role for the last time, showing he was not dropped from the series finale. For now, it is best to take these reports with a pinch of salt.
