Trivia
Milana Vayntrub as Squirrel Girl from the New Warriors pilot.
- In the comics, Squirrel Girl was originally a joke character, in an adventure that saw her team up with Iron Man, and with her help, actually managed to defeat Doctor Doom with her squirrel sidekicks. Since then, a running gag throughout her appearances shows her being able to beat some of the most powerful villains and threats in the Marvel Universe, including Thanos, M.O.D.O.K., Galactus, Ronan the Accuser, Mandarin, Terrax, Bi-Beast, Abomination, Ultron, Fin-Fang Foom, and even Deadpool. Joining the obscure hero team the Great Lakes Avengers, Doreen eventually rose to prominence after she realized the team wasn't pulling their own weight. She would be hired by Jessica Jones and Power Man as a nanny to look after their infant daughter Danielle Cage. Doreen was incredibly responsible with this task, fiercely protecting Danielle from many threats intent on kidnapping her.
- Milana Vayntrub, who voices Squirrel Girl in the Marvel Rising series, was to portray the character in live action in the ultimately unproduced New Warriors. She was to serve as the lead protagonist and head a group of untrained c-list heroes. Shannon Purser of Stranger Things fame and Mae Whitman were both considered with Whitman almost cast, though she had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts. Anna Kendrick was a popular choice, but she had no interest in the role.
