“House of the Dragon” breakout star Milly Alcock has joined the DC Universe. The Australian actor has been cast as Supergirl — aka Superman’s cousin, Kara Zor-El — in the upcoming film “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow,” James Gunn confirmed in an Instagram post.
Gunn shared a screenshot of Deadline’s article announcing the news in his post, writing, “This is accurate. Milly is a fantastically talented young actor, and I’m incredibly excited about her being a part of the DCU.” He continued: “Yes, I first became aware of her in House of the Dragon but I was blown away by her varied auditions and screen tests for #Supergirl.”
Rumors suggest that we might see her first in Superman: Legacy before she leads her own film, Supergirl: Woman Of Tomorrow.
