Deadline; ‘Supergirl: Woman Of Tomorrow’, The Second Pic From James Gunn & Peter Safran’s DC Studios, Gets Summer 2026 Release

Story from Deadline:

Put it your calendar to wear your tights and capes on June 26, 2026 as the Warner Bros/DC Studios feature take of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow will hit theaters.

There are no wide entries dated on Supergirl’s weekend.

The Craig Gillespie directed, Milly Alcock starring adaptation of Tom King’s 2022 comic book series Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which Bilquis Evely illustrated, is the second feature title under the new DC Studios run by James Gunn and Peter Safran after the former’s Superman movie which hits theaters in July 11, 2025. Ana Nogueira adapted the comic book for the big screen.

Gunn said at a DC Studios presser early last year that in their Supergirl “we see the difference between Superman who was sent to Earth and raised by loving parents from the time he was an infant, versus Supergirl who was raised on a rock, a chip off Krypton, and watched everyone around her die and be killed in terrible ways for the first 14 years of her life, and then came to Earth when she was a young girl. She’s much more hardcore; she’s not exactly the Supergirl we’re used to seeing.”

As Deadline first told you, House of the Dragon‘s Milly Alcock won the role of Supergirl, and she’ll appear in another DC project before making her big-screen debut as the Angel of the Sky.

The last time Warner Bros released a Supergirl movie was in 1984. It starred Helen Slater in the title role, Faye Dunaway as the villain and was directed by Jeannot Szwarc. The pic grossed $14M stateside.
