She-Ra and the Princesses of Power creator: Our show is coming out at the perfect time

“I mean, I think it’s the perfect time,” Noelle Stevenson says of reviving She-Ra in 2018. “It has been so cathartic for me to do, working on with this specific crew, this show has almost been this safe place. They are free of the day to day issues that we deal with—sexism, racism, all of the things that can make the news cycle so oppressive. And this is our escape from that, while also still addressing a lot of those same issues in a way that hopefully supplies relief but also is a call to action, a call to be brave, and to be strong.”
