DC Universe’s Stargirl will reportedly make her debut in The CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths.
The CW’s next Arrowverse crossover will adapt the classic comic book story Crisis On Infinite Earths as a five-part event. Much like the comic book story, Crisis on Infinite Earths will unite multiple versions of DC heroes from alternate universes as they attempt to save the multiverse from being destroyed by the Anti-Monitor.
Now, Business Insider reports that a person with direct knowledge on the subject has informed them that Brec Bassinger’s Stargirl, the eponymous heroine of her upcoming standalone series for DC Universe, will make her debut in The CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths. According to the outlet’s source, Stargirl’s introduction in Crisis on Infinite Earths will be brief and the highly-anticipated crossover will explain how the young heroine fits into the “bigger DC live-action universe.”
It was also announced that new episodes of Stargirl will get a second run on The CW one day after they debut on DC Universe. Based on the character created by Geoff Johns, DC Universe’s Stargirl stars Brec Bassinger as Courtney Whitemore, Joel McHale as Starman, Luke Wilson as Pat Dugan, Meg DeLacy as Cindy Burman, with Anjelika Washington, Yvette Monreal, with Christopher James, and Jake Austin Walker in undisclosed roles. Geoff Johns will write and executive produce the 13-episode first season of Stargirl. Sarah Schechter and Arrowverse boss Greg Berlanti will also serve as executive producers on the series.
Crisis On Infinite Earths will span two quarters and consist of Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman. The Arrowverse crossover will launch with three episodes in December before concluding with two additional episodes in January. Meanwhile, Stargirl is expected to premiere on DC Universe in 2020.
In addition to the regular cast members of each Arrowverse series, Crisis on Infinite Earths will also feature appearances by Tyler Hoechlin as Superman, Brandon Routh as Clark Kent/Superman and Ray Palmer/The Atom, LaMonica Garrett as the Anti-Monitor, Jon Cryer as Lex Luthor, Tom Cavanagh as Pariah, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, Cress Williams as Black Lightning, Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne, Johnathon Schaech as Jonah Hex, Erica Durance as Lois Lane, Tom Welling as Clark Kent / Superman, Ashley Scott Will as Huntress, and Burt Ward in an undisclosed role.
