In exciting news for DC fans, Chyler Leigh, known for her role as Alex Danvers in the Arrowverse, has recently offered some valuable advice to Milly Alcock, the talented star chosen to portray Supergirl in James Gunn's upcoming DC Universe film, 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.' Although the film's release date is still unknown, it is one of many highly anticipated DCU movies that Gunn has been working on since becoming co-CEO of DC Studios.
Taking on the role of a main superhero in a new cinematic universe is no easy task, particularly when considering the multitude of directions the new adaptation could take in terms of tone. Chyler Leigh highlighted the importance of rising to fan expectations during an interview with Screen Rant at The Saturn Awards. Leigh's advice to Alcock was straightforward yet crucial: 'It's a big role, so know your s***. Do your research, and just have fun. Everyone's interpretation is going to be different, and you can't listen to absolutely everybody out there. Just play it with as much heart and soul as you've got, and do your best.'
