As the battle for who's releasing the most interesting superhero movies and television shows continues between DC and Marvel Comics, there's yet another pilot lining up for the people in the Justice League team, "Supergirl," where Mrs. Harrison Ford will be playing a role - and surely, Calista Flockhart's net worth will benefit from it!
News outlets around the world report that the 50 year-old actress, famous for her television roles such as her Golden Globe Award-winning turn as "Ally McBeal" and the more recent "Brothers & Sisters," will be joining the cast of "Supergirl," where she'll be playing Kara Zor-El's boss, something that will surely give Calista Flockhart's net worth a boost.
According to Deadline, Calista Flockhart's net worth has been on hold since the ending of her show "Brothers & Sisters" in 2011, as she's passed on a number of pilots and has only now returned to work more; it'll be her first major project on network television since the ABC show, only this time she'll be on CBS.
The Daily Mail reports that the raise in Calista Flockhart's net worth in "Supergirl" will see her playing a character named Cat Grant, who is a self-made media entrepreneur and the founder of company CatCo where Kara Zor-El, Superman's cousin played by Melissa Benoist (famous for her roles in "Glee" and the Academy Award winning film "Whiplash") is her personal assistant.
"Supergirl" will deal with Kara feeling a slave of her own powers (which she shares with her cousin Clark Kent/Kal-El), until an unexpected disaster forces her to use her powers in public, turning into Supergirl - all while retaining her job at CatCo.
According to Hollywood Reporter, the show's still in early preproduction, and Flockhart has just been cast in the pilot, so it's still unknown whether "Supergirl" will ultimately air as a weekly one-hour show.
In any case, currently, Calista Flockhart's net worth stands at $24 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth - all while her husband's, Harrison Ford's, is an astonishing $210 million, from his work in the super successful film franchises "Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones"!
