Milly Alcock is making history as the first Supergirl to get her own movie in over 40 years. But rather than looking backward at what's come before, Alcock says she's avoided asking previous actors who have filled the role for advice or for their blessing.
"They're just people living their lives. It's not like we have this blood bond," Alcock tells Vanity Fair, explaining that the collaborative nature of film doesn't mean that actors must share those kinds of connections. "You have to respect that they don't owe you that."
