Milly Alcock’s Supergirl ‘understands that most of us exist in a grey area’

Milly Alcock's portrayal of Supergirl breaks away from the traditional, all-good superhero archetype. Director Craig Gillespie envisioned a more complex character who embodies gray moral areas, reflecting the nuanced nature of real people. This shift in the character’s portrayal is significant as it challenges the conventional superhero narrative, offering a more relatable and multifaceted hero. It suggests a broader, more realistic take on what it means to be a hero in today's world.
