Millie Bobby Brown is among the stars to celebrate their Emmy Award nominations following an announcement ceremony in Los Angeles.
The British performer, 14, plays Eleven in Stranger Things and is up for Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Drama Series.
Hers is one of 12 nominations for Netflix’s sci-fi favourite.
Game Of Thrones leads the way with 22 nods, followed closely by Saturday Night Live and Westworld, each with 21.
Brown said: “12 nominations for our show!! I love this cast and crew so much and I’m beyond thrilled to see how much Stranger Things has been embraced by our peers and The Academy. Well done to @dkharbour and of course The Duffers; none of this would be possible without them! It’s incredibly special and rewarding. I’m the luckiest girl.”
John Legend is up for two awards – one for starring in Jesus Christ Superstar Live In Concert and one for producing the show alongside Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice.
Should he win, he will enter the exclusive EGOT group: performers who have won Grammy, Oscar, Tony and Emmy awards.
