“Supergirl DCU casting fan art envisions Meg Donnelly as James Gunn’s Woman of Tomorrow, offering an alternative portrayal if Milly Alcock doesn’t secure the coveted role. Explore this imaginative creation that showcases Donnelly’s potential as an impactful fit for the character, as fans eagerly speculate on the upcoming casting decision.”
Meg Donnelly could be the next Supergirl, and one fan approved of it by creating an image that depicts the actress as the Woman of Tomorrow in James Gunn's DCU.
Gunn previously announced that he would produce a new Supergirl film, and the new actor who will portray the female superhero will reportedly debut in Superman: Legacy before starring in her own film Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Fans have been clamoring to know who will play the titular superhero, and there are reports that Donnelly could land the role.
Digital artist Rangs Art seemingly supports the rumors of Donnelly being the next Supergirl. The netizen took to Instagram and shared artwork featuring the Zombies actress as Supergirl. She looked stunning in the superhero costume. One netizen seemingly agreed, commenting, "Cool." Artist ChariotRacing also created their own rendition of Donnelly as Supergirl.
The fanart was released a day after reports claimed that Donnelly had a screen test for the role in Atlanta. Several unnamed sources told The Hollywood Reporter that the bosses had narrowed their choices to two actresses for the role — Donnelly and House of the Dragon actress Milly Alcock. Alcock played young Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen in the Game of Thrones prequel series. Meanwhile, Donnelly starred in Disney Channel's Zombies as Addison and voiced Supergirl in recent DC animated movies. Netizens were overjoyed upon hearing that Donnelly and Alcock could be the next Supergirl. However, it appeared that Donnelly was the preferred choice for Supergirl because she was featured in more posts.
Supergirl is one of the superhero characters that fans have been waiting for. She was last seen on screen in The Flash with Sasha Calle portraying the character. However, fans learned more about the character in CBS' and The CW's live-action Supergirl series starring Melissa Benoist playing the titular character. Before the recent report following the screen test, several names came up as potential actors for the role, including Calle, Beniost, Kiernan Shipka, Madison Iseman, Samara Weaving, and Anya Taylor-Joy.
