Summary

• Sydney Sweeney transitions from Sony’s Spider-Man Universe to DC as Supergirl in new fan art.

• Various DC projects are in development stages, including a Supergirl movie with Milly Alcock.

Sydney Sweeney moves from Sony’s Spider-Man Universe into the DC Universe as she suits up as one of DC’s alternative Supergirls in new fan art. James Gunn’s DC Universe is closer than ever to finally coming to fruition, as Creature Commandos will premiere on Max this year, while the new Superman movie is currently in production. However, other DC Studios projects are also in different stages of development, with some of them even going into production later in 2024.

As Milly Alcock has been set as the lead for the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow movie, she will be the latest cinematic version of Kara Zor-El on the big screen, following Sasha Calle’s iteration in the DCEU. However, some DC Universe fans are pitching the idea of introducing another incarnation of the Girl of Steel. Davi Alves shared new fan art of Sweeney, who made her superhero debut in the Madame Web movie as Power Girl, who is the Earth-2 version of Kara in the comics. Check out his full artwork below:

How Gunn’s DC Universe Could Explore Supergirls In The Multiverse

While the multiverse isn’t necessarily going to be part of upcoming DC Universe movies and TV shows for the time being, this could be a future plot point worth exploring, especially for Supergirl. Every actress who has played Supergirl in live-action is still around, which would mark a very rare opportunity where they could all come together in some capacity. It would also be a neat way for multiple Girls of Steel to come together, especially once Alcock’s Supergirl has gotten more established in the DC Universe.

The DC Universe would also be able to finally embrace the missed opportunity in The Flash movie, where they had multiple actors playing Batman, but who never shared the screen together once. As this was shown to be an effective use of the multiverse in Arrowverse’s Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover – which had different Superman actors engage with each other in the story – this would be a viable avenue for the DCU to explore further. Having every live-action Supergirl together in a special multiverse story would also make up for how The Flash movie wasted Kara.

It would also be genuinely intriguing to see what multiple Kara doppelgangers would do together, as this has never been explored in live-action. If it happens, it would likely not be for another couple of years. For now, time will tell if the DC Universe will ever see more than one version of Supergirl on the big and small screens.
