Shi said she wishes she had a film like this when she was younger and hopes that it inspires everyone to \"embrace their own inner pandas.\"
\"Embrace all of the awkward, weird, messy parts of themselves that they're kind of taught to put away or to hide,\" she said. \"I think for girls especially ... I hope they're inspired to get big and take up space and be ... loud and hairy and be weird. It's OK. And it should be celebrated.\"
\"Turning Red\" is available to stream on Disney+ now.
