Lizze Broadway did a post-season interview with Collider, mainly about her career and the acting process so not actually anything specific about Emma's powers. I did get some interesting takeaways though:
-Always take a grain of salt with press tour personas vs the actual everyday person, sure, but overall: Lizze is legitimately adorable. Humble, grateful, smart, committed, seemingly just delightful all the way around.
-The part came to her from a rep and was vague so she had no real idea what her character was until she got called in - she didn't even know she was a Supe at the time.
-The showrunners are keeping plot points close to the hip so Lizze doesn't know a lot outside of what she's given.
-That said, she wrote a 40 page biography for Emma to help get into character, including her relationship with her parents and what she imagined was Emma's first time shrinking - unfortunately, no actual details, but maybe that could surface somewhere later on. She collaborates with the writers and gets to pitch ideas so it may be possible that what she wrote could eventually become canon.
-Lizze jokes a few times about being short: "I'm 5'2" on a really good day, on a really bad day I'm like 5'0"."
It's a pretty fun listen one way or the other so I highly recommend it, if only to end up like me and marvel how she could be more lovable than she already was.
