In a exclusive with TVLine, it was revealed that casting has begun for the upcoming Supergirl television series set to air on CBS. The series pilot is being written by Ali Adler of No Ordinary Family and Greg Berlanti of Arrow. Currently, the show is looking for two leads for the series
The first role is Kara Zor-El AKA Kara Danvers, Supergirl. The show is looking for Caucasian females, age 22 to 26, to play the 24 year old character. As far as her mythology goes for the series, Kara Zor-El, the cousin of Superman (which isn't stated for the part, but fans know), was sent to Earth from the dying planet Krypton as the age of 12. The Danvers family takes her in and shows her how to be careful with her super-powers. After a decade of repressing her powers, Kara is forced to use them in public during a disaster. She then embraces her abilities and helps people in need.
The second role is for 26-year-old Alexandra Danvers, Kara's intelligent, science-focused foster sister. Alex is jealous of her foster sister's powers, but she's also fascinated by them, prompting her to learn as much as she can about alien anthropology, sociology, and culture. Alex works for a secret government agency, and she will face many challenges along the way.
