Supergirl writer Ana Nogueira on being free to play

Supergirl writer Ana Nogueira is on Popcorn Podcast in an interview DC fans won't want to miss. We first got a taste of Milly Alcock’s Kara Zor-El in 2025’s Superman, but Ana is giving us the true introduction to the hero in her first feature length appearance since 1984’s Supergirl. In our chat, we talk about how Ana was mining Kara’s complexities and grief, that Krypton as a symbol of home, the films connection with The Princess Bride and James Gunn’s brief to Ana about the DCU world she was to play in.
