New teaser (same old pilot footage, though): Supergirl - A Hero Will Rise

Also: http://www.cbs.com/shows/supergirl/...ays-supergirl-is-a-celebration-of-girl-power/

The producers revealed further details for the first season, including that Superman will be a big factor in Supergirl's life (though he might be more in the background), and the reveal of new characters. In addition to Lucy Lane, Livewire and Reactron, they're introducing Red Tornado, Non, and General Lane (General Lane is Lucy and Lois' father).

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Non, huh?

Huh.

 

[G-Fex]

Red Tornado? wow really.

 

[unholyrevenger72]

Observation. RED TORNADO

 

[Effect]

A live action version of Livewire!? Cool!

I thought "Justice Leaks" was some sort of play on words before I clicked.

 

[Joni]

Great news keeps coming on all these Berlanti shows.

 

[Stallion Dan]

It was confirmed a few weeks ago that there's no crossovers. CBS wants Supergirl to themselves. Whether that can change later on is up in the air.

Wait until viewers drop.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Wait until viewers drop.

My best guess is that Supergirl is set on another Earth. And when they can do crossovers, The Flash'll pop over by accident. Best of both worlds.

 

[googleplex]

Did you see the pilot? Literally every word is spoken trying to be as charming as possible.

That pretty much how Jimmy Olsen has always been in the comics. It's was the Donner films that turned him into a bumbling goof ball.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Yep. Comic-book Olsen is a bad ass. Flat-out. Fearless, adventurous, like Lois Lane he could carry a show by himself. The brilliance of Superman, his supporting characters are so iconic they could sustain a comic-book line unto themselves.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

This may be one too many (shows that is) for me. If I watch anymore I think I may renounce movies and television completely.

 

[KDash31987]

Supergirl is everywhere.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

I can't get over how cute she is.

Seems like Cat's got a son

Levi Miller, who stars as Peter Pan in Warner Bros.' big screen adventure Pan, has signed on for a role in CBS' Supergirl, according to TV Line. The 12-year-old actor will portray Carter Grant, the son of media mogul Cat Grant, played by Calista Flockhart. The actor will make his debut in the show's fourth episode.

Wow! that would sell dozens of issues in today's market.

6. Supergirl addresses the Superman issue fairly early on.

Although the Supergirl pilot references Kara's famous cousin quite a bit, the show never mentions him by his name or alter ego (Clark Kent/Superman) ... but that was because of editing.

"I think the couple of times it was said, it was cut," Kreisberg shared. "it's not like Simpsons where Bart can have one 'damn' per episode."

As it turns out, the biggest use of the name came in a scene featuring a former Superman, Dean Cain. (Cain is guesting on Supergirl in a key, secret role.)

"There was originally a flashback sequence [with] Dean Cain and [former movie Supergirl] Helen Slater, and a much longer scene where he's talking about Superman," Kreisberg said. "It's one of my favorite moments of shooting the pilot was seeing Dean Cain talk about Superman. It just kept making me gush. But with the third episode coming out, it's very much about Superman's place in the world, and Kara's place in the world, and why isn't Superman going to be on our show every week. That episode has a lot of discussion about him."

And here's just a little bonus thing:

Is Power Girl gonna be in this?

 

[KDash31987]

Is Power Girl gonna be in this?

Probably not. At least not any time soon. Power Girl is an alternate universe version of Supergirl, after all. There's no word on whether or not multiverses might exist in the Supergirl TV universe...but if it ends up crossing over with The Flash eventually, which is introducing multiverses in season 2...well, who knows!

 

[Finaika]

I thought she was wearing red undies in the New 52 version?

 

[bernardobri]

I thought she was wearing red undies in the New 52 version?

If you're referring to the 2012 version, that's the Super Best Friends Forever version.

The New 52 version isn't in there at all. The artist put the Super Best Friends Forever version instead.

Weird, since that looks very similar to the '84 Helen Slater outfit, while her New 52 outfit is more unique.

Maybe he's just not a fan of New 52. Who knows!

Anyway, if you wanna check out Super Best Friends Forever, here's the five shorts they did: Invisible Joy Ride, Time Waits for No Girl, Grounded, Name Game, Don't Fight Girls.

 

[KennyLinder]

No broadcasters in the UK have picked this up yet Thought Sky would of snapped this up.

Scuttlebutt had it that Channel 4/E4 and/or Five (possible partnering with Netflix as they did for Gotham) were the front runners to land this.

Apparently Sky have already taken a package of titles from WarnerTV (Legends of Tomorrow and Blindspot among them) and aren't going to come back for this, at least not at the moment.

 

[Stallion Dan]

Aside from Sky who are usually a day late, trying to watch it on UK TV as well as being part of any online community is impossible. Channel 4/5 are weeks or even months behind with most shows.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

If he has working eyes, he's not a fan of the New 52 version.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

That suit looks terrible like a lot of the New 52 designs.

 

[Poodlestrike]

That suit looks terrible like a lot of the New 52 designs.

Other than the bizarre crotch shield, I kinda liked it, really. That cape is pretty great.

Oh, and I'd argue that costume wise at least, most came out of the New 52 looking better than they did going in. Writing is a different matter, of course.

Should've been a full fledged series. Would've captured girls and boys alike. So glad we were able to get figures of them at least.

Her suit should have pockets. How else is Supergirl going to Tweet about her exploits while they happen?

Annnd now I really actually want Kara to kind of be a social media addict.

god, she's adorable.
