Supergirl
is the latest superhero TV series to be added to the huge library of HOOQ,
Asia’s largest video-on-demand service. The show is about Kara Zor-El, the cousin of Superman, as she tries to get
used to a new public persona while dealing with her very real human
relationships, realizing her full superhero potential and discovering how she
can help the citizens of National City.
“It’s funny
because in my everyday life, I have always been such a pacifist, “says Melissa
Benoit who plays Supergirl. “The butt kicking is new to me. That’s a new muscle
I’m flexing, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say I liked it.” She also has
rigorous physical training, but she loves that she can be a great role model
not just for girls but anyone how fearlessness can push one overcome the odds.
Also
starring in the hit TV series is Calista Flockhart who plays Cat Grant, the CEO
of CatCo World Media where Supergirl works as her assistant. Flockhart has
expressed her excitement in the past to work on a show that “embraces… and
celebrates Girl Power.” Not that she is any stranger to shows that celebrate
strong female roles as Flockhart first gained television superstardom through
the quintessential workplace comedy Ally McBeal, wherein she played the titular
character. They are joined by Mehcad Brooks from Deperate Housewives as Jimmy
Olsen and Chyler Leigh from Grey’s Anatomy as Kara’s adoptive sister Alex
Danvers. “I’m excited to be stepping into a show like this because I’m the wild
card,” Leigh says. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to bring something new into
what everybody knows already.” There’a also David Harewood from Homeland as DEO
agent Hank Henshaw. “In the comics, my character ends up becoming Cyborg
Superman, who battles Superman. I’m looking forward to that!”
