The DCU's next big, exciting upcoming superhero movie may have quietly taken off sooner than anyone realized. According to a recent report, DC’s Supergirl recently held a secret screening on the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank. An inside source has since dropped claims about who was in attendance at the private showing for the 2026 movie schedule release. By the sound of it, this was not your typical Hollywood event, but something far more controlled.
Apparently, this Supergirl screening wasn’t a fan test or press preview. Per The Hollywood Reporter, it was a closed-door screening attended only by a small group of studio executives and a few trusted members of James Gunn’s DC brain trust. The goal, more than likely, was to gauge how the film fits into Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters as it moves deeper into post-production. And the level of secrecy only makes the screening more intriguing, especially given its early placement in the production timeline.
