Andy Muschietti's "The Flash" is almost upon us. Only two more weeks until the movie is out in theaters and it has already garnered very strong word of mouth from the CinemaCon screening as well as advance fan and press screenings. The studio has very rudely not shown me the movie yet, so I can't join in on the quality discussion, but I can say that I'm very excited by all the positive word thus far.

I'm particularly excited to see what they do with this Supergirl business. I'm not very familiar with Sasha Calle's other work, but I'd be lying if I wasn't immediately enamored by her when they announced her casting by showing her reaction to hearing the news that she was cast during a Zoom meeting with Muschietti. Her obvious passion for the character and excitement at the opportunity was contagious and I was instantly down to see what they were going to do with her here.

Now, we know that the DC Extended Universe is forever altered by the events of "The Flash," but we don't know to what extent. I guess we won't know even after we've all seen "The Flash," since James Gunn and Peter Safran's big reshaping of the DC Universe is still in its early days.

The question remains: is there a place for Sasha Calle's Supergirl in the new DCU? This very question was asked of Calle by our own Jenna Busch-Henderson and her answer may not surprise you, but it is a good example of just how attached to this character she has become.

Calle Is 'Deeply In Love' With Supergirl

The gist of Jenna's question was about whether or not there have been any talks about her returning, especially considering Gunn has announced a "Supergirl" standalone movie based on the "Woman of Tomorrow" comics. This was her response:

"Oh, look, I hope to continue playing Supergirl. I love her. I'm so deeply in love with her. I think she's so incredible and so complex. And I think in this film, this is really the runway for her. We see this glimpse of her, but there's still so much to unpack in her story. I'm excited to take her apart and put her back in and just enjoy her with the world. I think there's so much story to tell, and I would love to continue playing Supergirl."

Obviously, that doesn't answer the larger question at hand, but at least Calle has put her love of the character and desire to return to the role on record. It's not like she'd come out and be like "Meh, I'll pass," of course, but it does sound like Calle has done a ton of homework for this character and is ready to be put back into the fight should Gunn and Safran want her back.

We'll know more as Gunn's own "Superman" movie moves forward and casting news start to come out for his "Gods and Monsters" phase of the DCU.
