For many people, Sasha Calle’s Supergirl was a stand-out performance in The Flash. The actress has revealed that she’s met with DC Studios co-chair Peter Safran about continuing as the Girl of Steel in future projects.
The upcoming DC Universe reboot has left many fans wondering about the future of many iconic characters . It’s unclear if The Flash will end up getting a sequel and the fate of stars such as Ezra Miller and Sasha Calle has been left in the dark. Luckily for fans of Calle, a recent interview revealed that she has met with DC Studios co-chair Peter Safran about returning as Supergirl beyond her debut film:
“I hope to continue playing Supergirl,” Calle tells USA Today in the same interview. “I love her so deeply, and I feel so connected to her.”
Warner Bros. originally planned for Sasha Calle to have a much larger role as Supergirl in the future of the DC Universe. The original ending for The Flash would have featured both her and Michael Keaton’s Batman during the final scene, with Keaton continuing to appear in projects such as Batgirl and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. With the state of the DC Universe in flux thanks to James Gunn and Peter Safran’s reboot, her future in the role is currently unclear.
The Flash’s DC Universe future
Warner Bros. Discovery already has a script for a potential sequel to The Flash, written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, the man behind the two Aquaman movies starring Jason Momoa. However, James Gunn and Peter Safran did not discuss the Flash sequel during their DC Universe presentation.
Directed by Andy Muschietti from a script written by Birds of Prey scribe Christina Hodson, The Flash is inspired by the Flashpoint comic book storyline, which followed Barry Allen as he navigated an altered DC Universe. Written by Geoff Johns and penciled by Andy Kuber, Flashpoint radically altered the status of the DC Comics universe and led to the launch of the New 52 titles.
In addition to Ezra Miller, The Flash also features Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck as two separate versions of Batman, Ron Livingston as Henry Allen, Maribel Verdú as Nora Allen, Kiersey Clemons as Iris West, Michael Shannon as General Zod, Antje Traue as Faora-Ul and Sasha Calle as Supergirl. Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Rudy Mancuso and Luke Brandon Field are also on board in undisclosed roles.
