The bottom girl..I don’t know. Not a traditional looking Wendy, but she could be.
Seriously doubting a Tiger Lily. Adam and Eddy wouldn’t risk casting a white Tiger Lily. I’ve actually wondered if they were going to have the Natives at all given how they are portrayed in Disney (let’s just generously call it 20th century stereotypes).

Unless Eddy and Adam decided to update the portrayal of Native Americans to be very positive. There aren’t too many opportunities to have such diversity on the show, so it’d be smart if they cast authentic Native American actors to play positive roles in the story.

Oh I have no doubt they’d do the Native Americans in a more positive light, but sadly the image from the Disney film for instance is still in people’s head (the song about Red Men for instance) and sometimes fans demand a strict interpretation of those iconic films. I think Adam and Eddy would cast an authentic Native American if given the chance. So the bottom girl can’t be Tiger Lily.
Do we know for sure that the mysterious hooded figure is a boy? It could be one of these girls.
