Casey (Britt Robertson) is a teenage girl, smarter than most kids and equipped with a rebellious agency, pulled into a world unknown to everyone else. On this adventure she is told a few times that she’s a different and that she’s special when she asks the obligatory why me. This should sound very familiar to anyone who has ever seen a film, especially one aimed towards families and young people in general. But what’s unique about Tomorrowland’s teenage hero is that what makes her special is not any sort of power passed to her by her deceased parents, it’s the more “mundane” quality of her optimism that makes her special.
