Back to the Future fans will always remember Lea Thompson as George McFly's true love, Lorraine Baines. Of course if you are a 90's sitcom fan then you will certainly know Lea from her headline show, Caroline in the City! But what many may not know is that Lea Thompson has a very successful career as a director as well! While still acting, most recently in the 2018 film Little Women, Lea still finds time to get behind the camera too. She has directed several episodes of Switched at Birth and The Goldbergs among others. Stargirl fans will be delighted to know that this wonderful talent is bringing her skills to the show to direct episode seven of season 1!
Getting a diverse group of directors really gives tv shows the flare and differentiation that they need to stay fresh. We also believe that a balance between men and women directors can also boost a show's appeal. Bringing in Lea to direct on a show centered around a female teen superhero just seems like the perfect move! We can't wait to see what she'll bring to the show!
