    It's so crazy because the last thing I saw her in before this was Young Sheldon. She looks So different as Phoebe in GB:AL, and in real life. Check out her song "Haunted House" that she co-wrote and performs. It's played during the end credits of GB:AL and the music video is on her channel here. I just noticed that the corners of her mouth seem to naturally turn up, so if they were to make a younger Harley Quinn in like 6-10 years, she would be great.

    Her and Kiernan Shipka REALLY look alike. Like twins. They should be in a movie together.

    I watched Gifted today. She and Chris were incredible together. I haven't seen a movie that made me so emotional in a long time.
