Earlier this month it was reported that a Supergirl TV series was in development, reports were Greg Berlanti and Ali Adler are teaming up once again to adapt the Man of Steel’s cousin to helm her own tv show.
It is now confirmed that CBS has picked up the show for a series commitment, premise released is that she will in fact be Kara Zor-El, and is indeed Superman’s cousin, she has embraced her abilities and becomes the hero she was always meant to be. Reports are she is characterized as a 24 years old for the show, and that she escaped Krypton’s destruction.
All in all, this speculates that the show will be fairly accurate to the comics history of Supergirl and that CBS isn’t going through the Linda Danvers route.
Are you excited for a Supergirl TV series and how hopeful are you they tie the show to the Arrow/Flash-verse?
