Supergirl Full Movie Details, Review, Cast & Box Office (2026)

Directed by Craig Gillespie and based on the acclaimed comic miniseries Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King, this groundbreaking entry in the new DC Universe (DCU) offers a starkly different, darker take on the iconic Kryptonian. Unlike her cousin Superman, who was raised by loving parents on Earth, Kara Zor-El grew up stranded on a harsh, drifting fragment of Krypton, witnessing destruction and death. Now a jaded and battle-worn warrior, her cosmic isolation is interrupted when she is recruited by Ruthye, a fierce 13-year-old alien girl seeking justice for her murdered father. Reluctantly aligning with the brutal, cigar-chomping space bounty hunter Lobo, Supergirl embarks on an intense, interstellar journey to hunt down the ruthless alien pirate Krem. Skipping Earth entirely, this raw space-faring adventure forces Kara to confront her deep-seated trauma and choose between bloodthirsty revenge or true heroic mercy.
