The Next DCU Film Will Be Rougher, Grittier & Funnier Than Some Fans Might Expect

In a conversation with Variety, Nogueira explained what attracted her to the Supergirl project. The article highlighted that although she doesn’t often read comic books, she’s a huge fan of superhero films, and that’s what first sparked her interest in the project and the broader DCU. She even shared that the character of Supergirl didn’t fully click for her until she read the comic Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. Nogueira talked about how the comic’s unique approach delved into Kara’s history, resulting in a “rougher and grittier, and edgier and funnier” take on the superhero.
