We’re so excited to see Grace VanderWaal make her movie debut in the upcoming Disney+ film Stargirl and we’re going to get the rest of you excited for it with this exclusive clip!

In the clip, Grace performs a song called “Be True to Your School” and you’ll be able to watch the full version when the movie debuts on Disney+ on March 13.

Grace plays the title role of Stargirl Caraway, a confident and colorful new student with a penchant for the ukulele, who stands out in a crowd. She is kind, finds magic in the mundane and touches the lives of others with the simplest of gestures.

Graham Verchere, Karan Brar, Maximiliano Hernandez, Darby Stanchfield, and Giancarlo Esposito also star in the new movie, which was directed by Julia Hart.

Happy Birthday Grace VanderWaal!

To celebrate her birthday, Disney+ dropped the trailer for Stargirl, the 16-year-old singer’s acting debut.

Here’s a synopsis: Leo Borlock is an average student at Mica High School. He gets decent grades, is a member of the school’s marching band and has always been content flying under the radar. But all that changes when he meets Stargirl Caraway, a confident and colorful new student with a penchant for the ukulele, who stands out in a crowd.

She is kind, finds magic in the mundane and touches the lives of others with the simplest of gestures. Her eccentricities and infectious personality charm Leo and the student body, and she quickly goes from being ignored and ridiculed to accepted and praised, then back again, sending Leo on a rollercoaster ride of emotions.

Stargirl also stars Graham Verchere, Karan Brar, Darby Stanchfield, Maximiliano Hernandez, and Giancarlo Esposito, and will premiere March 13th on Disney+!

Grace VanderWaal and her Stargirl co-star Graham Verchere step out for the Disney+ panel at Disney’s D23 Expo on Friday (August 23) in Anaheim, Calif.

The young stars were there to talk about their upcoming movie, which they announced will launch on the new streaming service in early 2020.

Gina Rodriguez was also there to talk about a new series called Diary of a Female President, which she is executive producing. She’ll also be a recurring guest star on the show. She was joined by star Tess Romero to announce that the series will premiere on Disney+ in January. Told using the narration from her diary, this half-hour single camera comedy follows 12-year-old Cuban-American girl Elena’s journey through the trials of middle school, which set her on the path to ultimately become president of the United States.

FYI: Grace is wearing a Jonathan Cohen dress. Gina and Tess are matching in their Ellie Mae Studios blazer and pants.

Grace VanderWaal is sharing the life lessons she’s learned from her new movie Stargirl and her new single “Waste My Time.”

The 15-year-old singer got candid in a new interview with Teen Vogue. Here’s what she had to say:

On her character Stargirl: “She is so unapologetically herself and it’s ridiculous because she’s so young. Stargirl is not afraid of anyone, of doing her own thing. She understands the concept that no one cares — or at least people don’t care as much as you think they do.”

On writing “Waste My Time”: “What I like about it is that it has a really nice contrast of kind of messed up lyrics, but it’s fun at the same time. That’s a feeling I really wanted to portray. Like when things are messed up, people say you shouldn’t waste your time, you only have one shot. You’re only young once. This is a song [that says], whatever, I don’t care, I’ll waste it.”

On figuring out what she wants to do with her life: “I was freaking out for a second, and I was being so overdramatic, and I was psyching myself out so much. Looking back … [I think I felt like] if I don’t choose this, then the opportunities won’t come back. And if I choose this then the time won’t come back. I was battling between those two things. But now, current Grace, present Grace, I’m just like, ‘Past Grace, chill. It doesn’t even matter that much. You’re just psyching yourself out.’ Now I’m just literally going day by day, whatever happens, happens.”

“Honestly, as long as I’m doing what I love, I’m happy. And right now I’m doing what I love and that’s all that matters. And if in a couple of months I don’t want to do this, whatever. I’ll go back to school. And if I do want to do it, well let’s [see what] we can build. If not, it’ll be hard, but you know, I’ll figure it out. I always figure something out.”

Stargirl is set for release in 2020. Watch Grace VanderWaal‘s “Waste My Time” music video now!
