Warner Bros. developing Supergirl film?

Warner Bros and DC are developing a 'Supergirl' film.



The entertainment companies are said to be in the "early stages" of creating the movie after they secured '22 Jump Street' writer Oren Uziel to pen the script.



Bosses are yet to hire a producer and go through the casting procedure but there's a high chance Melissa Benoist - who plays the titular character in the CW series which is now in its fourth season - will sign up to portray Supergirl.



It is unclear whether Superman will appear in the blockbuster, but Warner Bros and DC Entertainment are hoping to create a new template for future films.



'Supergirl' is just part of a long list of plans Warner Bros has as it's believed they are also working on a series of movies involving the DC comics villains – including two films starring The Joker, as well as spin-offs for Deathstroke and Harley Quinn.
