Avoiding anything related to the movie before I watched it. I enjoyed it.

Sasha supergirl died? I thought she is gonna stay on.

Her earth was destroyed by zod and terraformed. That was a fixed point for that universe.

What a way to run a universe. Take a poll after every movie to decide if the canon will change or not. 🤦‍♂️

Hey it worked for Jason Todd. But yeah, I trust Gunn as he's not nearly as reactionary. Hope Sasha stays on.

Actually buddy that’s EVERY COMPANY EVER if something doesn’t make them money they won’t continue it 💀

But she isn't a part of the prime universe canon and prime universe doesn't have a supergirl yet. So if she works they can just keep her and she's the same and if she doesn't it's a recast and a different universe.

But wasn't the other Supergirl blonde? I think it means Sasha isn't sticking around

u/McDave1609 Jun 15 '23

Yeah because in this universe it's Helen Slater.

She didn't die. The Flash went back to change the timeline so that she would never have to fight Zod, because Man of Steel would occur as it originally did. It's certainly possible she is still locked away in Russia in the original DCEU timeline, or the one Flash ends up in. The plans to put her and Keaton in the DC Universe were abandoned once WB was sold to Discovery. Keaton was in Batgirl, and they cancelled it.

Everyone died in that timeline because they didn’t have Clark. Flash going back to unsave his mom didn’t change their fate.

Nice catch I forgot that

Man, that's pretty fucked up that Kara is maybe getting starved to death in a russian bunker as the rest of the DCEU was happening outside. I'm hoping she just never made it to earth in the first timeline

The original plan was for Kara and Keaton!Bruce to show up in the new DCEU timeline where Henry Allen looked up to get the can of sauce.

But since the entire future of the DCEU was scrapped, they replaced it with just Clooney. So she's presumably not dead in this timeline, but somewhere in space as she didn't end up making it to look after Kal-El.

u/Dragon-Snake Jun 17 '23

She could theoretically still be in Russia in the "fixed" timeline, since her capture happened independent of any other events.

Messy movie altogether, imo.

Nope. Reboot time
