So how is the Supergirl? We’d say the costume has really fit in well for Melissa.

The costume was designed by Oscar winner Colleen Atwood (designed Arrow and The Flash costumes as well). “In designing Supergirl, I wanted to embrace the past, but more importantly, thrust her into the street-style action hero of today,” Atwood said in a statement.

Along with Melissa Benoist joining the cast are Kara Danvers as Zor-El, Mechad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen, Laura Benanti as Alura Zor-El, Jeremy Jordan as IT Whiz Winslow “Winn” Scott, Calista Flockhart as Kara’s boss Cat Grant and Chyler Leigh as Kara’s foster sister, Alex.

Helen Slater who played as Supergirl in 1984 film and Dean Cain who played Superman on ABC’s Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman has also been cast but their roles remain a secret.
