The outdated DC film universe isn’t fairly performed but, nevertheless it looks like we’re full steam forward on the brand new imaginative and prescient for DC on the massive display. James Gunn not too long ago confirmed that his Superman film has not been delayed by the latest actors’ or writers’ strikes. And it seems that for the reason that writers’ strike ended, one other key script has been accomplished. Gunn has introduced that there’s now a script for the upcoming DC film Supergirl: Lady of Tomorrow and he’s hyping it up huge time.
Ana Nogueira is the scribe behind the brand new screenplay, and James Gunn took to Instagram to reward the script, calling it a “distinctive take” on the character, and saying that the screenplay was even higher than he’d hoped it could be. Gunn stated partly…
A hearty public welcome to Ana Nogueira to the DC Studios household. Ana is an incredible author whose screenplay adaptation of Lady of Tomorrow is above and past something I hoped it could be.
Nogueira is an actress and playwright, however Supergirl: Lady of Tomorrow marks her first screenplay, making this an enormous step ahead for her. The story is an adaptation of the DC Comics’ e book of the identical title which reinvisions Kara Zor-El as a girl who was raised very in a different way from Clark Kent and thus has grow to be a very completely different type of character.
THR reviews that that is Ana Noguiera’s second shot at a Supergirl script as she had truly been employed to put in writing a Supergirl film as a by-product from The Flash which had launched Sasha Calle because the character. There have been rumors {that a} earlier model of The Flash arrange a future for Calle’s Supergirl, which can have arrange the spinoff. However when the DCU went the reboot route, that was scrapped.
That model of the character will not be the one we are going to see in Lady of Tomorrow, however the lead function within the new film has not been formally forged, so who is aware of, perhaps the brand new film might be a second probability for multiple individual. Calle was one of many components of The Flash that was usually praised regardless of the remainder of the film not residing as much as expectations.
Whereas Supergirl: Lady of Tomorrow has a script, it’s unclear how rapidly the wheels of this explicit venture will start to spin up. We all know that the Superman: Legacy launch date, of July 11, 2025, will mark the primary film of the brand new DCU, however whether or not any of the opposite initiatives have any particular slot within the timeline is unclear. For all the pieces we all know in regards to the DCU’s Gods and Monsters chapter, there’s nonetheless quite a bit that’s lacking.
Nonetheless, it’s thrilling to see one other of the DCU’s new initiatives transferring ahead. The film will seemingly now go in the hunt for its director.
