"Supergirl" is all set to jump on television screens beginning Monday, October 26, with lead star Melissa Benoist, who paraded her cape and seemingly showing off on what modern superheroes look like.
Speaking of the ideal modern superheroes, the upcoming American television series marks the end of the old and existing superhero shows, which are often more focused on anger, darkness and the usual winning-tone superhero stories.
"Whatever you expect, whatever those traditional superhero tropes are, we get to twist them invariably," show's executive producer, Ali Adler quoted in the Hollywood Reporter.
Benoist plays the character of Kara Danvers, a Millenial-era woman who's ready to get a hold of her origin and powers, following a decade of hiding from her destined fate and pretending to live as a normal being.
During the recent meeting with the journalists and show's executive producers, Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and lead star, Melissa Benoist, the team reportedly gathered together to relay the grounds as to why "Supergirl" decided to take its own trail, taking both positivity and hope as alternatives on the current slate of television superhero shows.
Besides taking 'Supergirl' on a different genre, the show creators, Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg have also addressed the viewers' expectations as to whether or not the series would be out with big crossover events, just like the usual superhero series such as The Flash and Arrow.
"Right now there are no plans (for crossovers)," Kreisberg said in a statement. "Obviously, Gotham exists outside the continuity of all these shows, and right now Supergirl is its own show.
He went on saying, "Who knows what will happen in the future though, with whatever legal stuff has to happen since it would have to happen across two different networks."
"Supergirl" airs every Mondays at 8 p.m on the CBS's network.
