Warner Bros planning Supergirl solo movie

Warner Bros planning Supergirl solo movie

By Joseph Baxter & Kirsten Howard

Supergirl is DCEU-bound! Deadline is reporting that Warner and DC are developing a new Supergirl movie, with the acquisition of screenwriter Oren Uziel, who’s currently working on the live-action video game adaptation movie, Sonic the Hedgehog, coming off scripts for The Cloverfield Paradox, Shimmer Lake, Freaks of Nature and 22 Jump Street. He’s also working the script for a Mortal Kombat reboot film.

While that is the extent of the substantive details, the belief is that – similar to the separate movie/television dynamic of The Flash with Ezra Miller in the movies and Grant Gustin on TV – the new cinematic Supergirl will be a different iteration from the one currently played by Melissa Benoist on The CW television series.

Interestingly, with the season 4-bound Supergirl television series having introduced Superman (as played by Tyler Hoechlin,) back in season 2, in which the super-powered Kryptonian cousins teamed up, the cinematic Girl of Steel could end up doing something similar with Henry Cavill’s Superman.

That, however, is the part of this story where rumours take over, since the report goes into some loose talk about the purported purpose of the new Supergirl movie.
