The new DC picture Supergirl, starring Milly Alcock, opened to a surge of negative early critiques as it entered cinemas this week.
Variety, Vulture, Forbes, IGN and WBUR have issued mixed assessments. Deadline reported early audience reaction as variable, but pointed to Alcock and co‑star Jason Momoa. Fox News’ tracking indicates the project could sustain a $200 million loss after Alcock’s provocative remarks, and People quoted original Supergirl actress Helen Slater saying she is “completely supportive” with Alcock’s take on the beloved role.
