Ms. Marvel and Squirrel Girl take center stage in the upcoming "Marvel Spotlight" episode of Marvel's 616, streaming on Disney+! The moving final episode of this documentary series follows two classes of high school students as they rehearse the Marvel Spotlight plays. To get an inside look, Ellie chats with Alison Brie, who directed the episode. Alison reflects on her own experiences with high school theater and shares some behind-the-scenes stories.

Then, Ellie hops on a call with Madeline Stanley and Briana Morales, who starred in the plays. They talk about what they learned from performing as Squirrel Girl and Ms. Marvel—and what it was like to rehearse with a film crew in the room.
