In 2016, Millie Bobby Brown's character from "Stranger Things" was a favorite Halloween costume choice. 

While most people couldn't pull it off quite quickly, singer Halsey could pull it off better than anyone else, and this was due to their uncanny physical resemblance.

This has always been brought up repeatedly and most recently, at Halsey's appearance on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon."

Halsey was asked by the host who should play the singer in a movie. The singer, who identifies as they/them, didn't think twice before suggesting Brown, adding that they looked like sisters. Read on for more details about the disclosure.

In a recent appearance on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon," Halsey revealed who they'd like to act in a biopic of their life if produced.

"I know the answer," the "Badlands" crooner responded to host Fallon as he asked the loaded question. 

Fallon then brought up a picture of Halsey dressed up as Eleven for Halloween, a character played by Brown in "Stranger Things." "I mean, yeah, Millie would be great," the New Jersey native added. "But I don't really think I'm famous enough to cast Millie."

They continued, "It's kind of uncanny how much we look alike. It's like, 'Oh no, we actually just look like sisters.'"

While the singer wasn't sure if the actress would want to play them, the "Stranger Things" actress revealed that she was "sooo down" to play Halsey.

She shared a viral clip of Halsey's interview on the show on her Instagram story, captioning it "sooooo down."

While nothing is in the works at this time, fans are hopeful that this has set the ball rolling on future collaborations.

In the same interview, the singer confirmed that they met their partner, Alev Aydin, in a biopic based on her life.

"I met him in 2017. He was hired to write a movie about me. He followed me around on tour and was interviewing me." This was confirmed by Deadline in 2018 that a biopic of Halsey was in the works, but it hadn't been produced. 

They then continued, "After a couple years of getting to know me, one day I sat down and was like, 'Hey, you know everything about me and I don't know anything about you. I'm gonna start interviewing you back.' And we found out that we had so much in common. After being friends for a long time, we fell in love." 

When asked about the update of the biopic, they shared that there's a "conflict of interest," and he's now the main character.
