The upcoming Supergirl film, starring Milly Alcock, promises to avoid a common pitfall seen in superheroine movies, according to James Gunn. While the 2025 Superman film didn’t break box office records, fans are curious about what this means for the lesser-known Supergirl. With Superman earning $616 million globally on a $225 million budget, expectations are high for Milly Alcock’s debut as the iconic superheroine in this new cinematic chapter of the DC Universe.
How will Supergirl stand out?
Gunn assures that it won’t repeat previous mistakes by focusing on genuine character development and a storyline that feels fresh. This approach aims to bring more depth to the character, rather than relying solely on action-packed sequences.
- A fresh take on Supergirl’s narrative
- Emphasis on character development
- Avoiding clichés seen in past superheroine films
As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to see a more nuanced portrayal of Supergirl. It’s refreshing to hear that the film aims for substance over spectacle. This could be the key to resonating with audiences and leaving a lasting impact in the superhero genre landscape.
