My initial thoughts when I read the script for the first time was oh no!
Its a very scary movie to me, its like a horror movie to me and no one else.
Its probably the scariest movie Ill ever do in my life.

Throughout filming, VanderWaal found herself relating to Stargirl more and more.

Especially when the school turns on her and she toughens it out, she says.
Ive definitely done that before.
Check out an exclusive first look at VanderWaal as Stargirl above, and more photos from the movie below.
