What will DCU ‘Supergirl’ be about?

DCU chiefs James Gunn and Peter Safran did announce Supergirl, Woman of Tomorrow movie a year back, but with no release details. Gunn revealed the following details about the project,

“In our series we see the difference between Superman who was sent to Earth and raised by loving parents from the time he was an infant, versus Supergirl who was raised on a rock, a chip off Krypton, and watched everyone around her die and be killed in terrible ways for the first 14 years of her life, and then came to Earth when she was a young girl. She’s much more hardcore; she’s not exactly the Supergirl we’re used to seeing.”

Supergirl, Woman of Tomorrow, will be based on Tom King’s comic book series from 2022.
