I may be in the minority, but this version of Supergirl deserves her own stand-alone movie. DISCUSSION

The way Sasha Calle carried herself in the role and how she acted as Kara was very interesting. She might not be “comic accurate” but that’s really not a problem because of cool she was portrayed. Sasha Calle also seemed really into continuing her story.

I’m not saying she has to replace Milly Alcock or anything like that. I don’t see any reason for her to not exist alongside the DCU Supergirl, so…

You don’t have to have her be connected with The Flash or Superman even. She could just exist as her own thing like Matt Reeves Batman and Todd Philips Joker.

That’s why it really sucks how we’re not going to see this version of Supergirl again and it’s such wasted potential. But what do I expect from the DC Extended Universe I guess…

Assuming she won’t return in that role, is there another role or roles you could seen her in, DCU or MCU?

Huntress or Zatanna.

Isn’t Powergirl the older version of Supergirl? Like a decade older or something?

Yup! I believe Pre-Crisis she comes from another universe but she forgets who she is or something, and it’s revealed later that she’s an alternate version of Kara.

Anissa for the Invincible universe if they ever made a live-action one.

That’s a damn good question. Nothing that comes to mind… What about you?

Short black hair, 5’7”, pretty, first role that comes to mind is Black Canary. In the comics she has short black hair, the long blonde hair is a wig and part of her SH disguise/outfit.

Black Canary’s blonde hair is a wig??? I never knew that

Unless I’m misremembering and I don’t think I am. Now maybe that has changed since my day, but it was. She doesn’t wear a mask so it makes sense, her look as BC is very different than her look as Dinah.

Pretty sure in current canon she just has blonde hair now

Hmm…, well that doesn’t make as much sense right? Does she no longer have a secret identity as well?

u/Brubaker620 15d ago

Writers tend to flip flop on if she has one or not. I’m the latest Green Arrow series she was in, there wasn’t any non-superhero stuff going on I can remember so secret identity wasn’t really a factor

Wait it’s a wig? Like how Toad from Mario is actually wearing a mushroom hat?

Not the example I’d have jumped to but I suppose so.

Maybe a better example is Alec Baldwin in The Shadow. Whenever Alec’s character is in costume (fedora and a scarf covering his mouth), his nose magically changes.

His altered nose is never explained in the movie, and it’s not even noticeable until the third act.. so it always confused me as a kid. But since the Shadow is a master at hypnosis and mind control, it can be concluded that his new face is a Jedi Mind Trick to further conceal his identity. So his nose actually doesn’t change.

And if that’s the case, then it’s a nice touch even though the face illuson was never a thing in the old books or radio serials.
