Grace VanderWaal Wraps Filming on Her First Movie, 'Stargirl'

Grace VanderWaal is officially done filming her first ever movie!

The 14-year-old singer and now actress shared a sweet message to her co-stars and crew after wrapping up shooting on Stargirl, where she stars as the title character.

“I genuinely with all my heart have no idea how to even explain these past couple months of my life,” Grace started out on her Instagram. “I always thought I was missing something. I gave up trying to make friends or even have a conversation because I was so incredibly exhausted from giving my all, trying my best to connect with people and never succeeding.”

“I was nervous about making this movie because I knew a lot of the cast would be around my age and that scared me,” she continues. “I am new. I am genuinely a different, better version of myself coming out of this. I am so sad and still drying my eyes about it ending but also incredibly grateful for what this has done for me.”

Grace added at the end, “I’m normal, I’m not missing anything, I just needed love and acceptance to gain some social confidence. Thank you. Thank you to my now lifelong friends.”

Stargirl is set to premiere in 2019.
