Stargirl’s Brec Bassinger Wants to Do an Arrowverse Musical Episode
DC's Stargirl actress Brec Bassinger says she wants a musical episode of the Arrowverse series. On the show, Bassinger plays Courtney Whitmore, a teenager who becomes a superhero after she discovers Starman's Cosmic Staff and begins channeling its power. The series, which also stars Luke Wilson, Joel McHale, Yvette Monreal, Amy Smart, Anjelika Washington, Nelson Lee, Christopher James Baker, Trae Romano, and Hunter Sansone, has aired for two seasons so far on The CW, with the network renewing Stargirl season 3 for late 2022.
The musical episode is a grand television tradition that has produced some of classic shows' most memorable episodes. Some more realistic series have bent over backward to find ways to include a musical episode, like the medical drama Grey's Anatomy and comedy Scrubs, which both used brain trauma to induce hallucinations of musical numbers. However, shows that take place in more fantastical universes do it even more frequently, including Batman: The Brave & The Bold, which featured Neil Patrick Harris as DC villain The Music Meister, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which featured a musical demon lurking around Sunnydale in the episode «Once More with Feeling.»

She quote tweeted the post, saying that "we have been campaigning for this since the beginning." Check out Bassinger's tweet below:
