Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment Announce a SUPERGIRL Movie is in the Works

A "Supergirl" film is in the early stages at Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment, according to Deadline Hollywood. "22 Jump Street" writer Oren Uziel will pen the script, but no producer is attached yet.

Supergirl's first appearance was in "Action Comics #252" from writer Otto Binder and illustrator Al Plastino. It followed Kara Zor-El, who was born and raised in Argo City - a fragment of KRYPTON that survived destruction. When the town is doomed, Kara is sent to Earth by her parents to be raised by her cousin Kal-El, known as Superman. SUPERGIRL adopted the secret identity of orphan Linda Lee and made Midvale Orphanage her home.

Supergirl has most recently been played by Melissa Benoist in the Warner Bros series creation on the CW.
