SUPERGIRL will soon make her debut on CBS - with some serious Broadway talent in tow.

As previously reported, Tony winner Laura Benanti and Tony nominee Jeremy Jordan join GLEE's Melissa Benoist in the network's high-profile series, premiering this fall. At today's upfront presentation, CBS revealed an extended trailer for SUPERGIRL, which you can check out below!

Based on characters from DC Comics, the series follows Kara Zor-El (Benoist), who comes to earth after escaping the destruction of Krypton. After many years hiding her abilities, she joins the ranks of her cousin Superman to become the hero she was meant to be.

Also in the cast are two former superheroes -- one-time Superman Dean Cain and Helen Slater, star of the 1984 film SUPERGIRL. The ensemble also includes Mehcad Brooks, Calista Flockhart, Chyler Leigh, David Harewood, Jordan and Benanti.
