Disney+ is bringing back Stargirl for another round.
The movie, which premiered on the streaming service last year, will mark Grace VanderWaal‘s return in the title role for a new story in the title character’s life.
According to THR, the sequel has added Elijah Richardson to the cast as a romantic lead opposite Grace.
Grace and Michael Penn will write and perform original music for the film, and Julia Hart would be back to direct.
The 2020 movie was based on the young adult novel about an unassuming high schooler who finds himself inexplicably drawn to the free-spirited new girl, whose unconventional ways change how they see themselves…and their world.
You can still stream Stargirl on Disney+ now.
