Torn on the new potential Supergirl castings and not because Sasha Calle isn’t getting to continue the role. It’s unfortunate because I feel she had a lot of potential and might’ve just been a case of right person, wrong time but I accept that it is what it is. Anyway, for the new Kara Zor-El (Danvers?), I think Meg Donnelly will get the role.
Pro: I can’t explain it but I think Meg Donnelly ever so slightly looks more like Supergirl than Milly Alcock.
Pro: I feel like she has a slight edge over Milly having played the role of Supergirl pretty well in the TomorrowVerse.
Pro-adjacent note: Were she to be cast, I think it officially puts an end to the TomorrowVerse. It felt like that writing was on the wall when they went straight to Crisis on Infinite Earths without a proper Justice League movie beforehand, but I don’t think Gunn would have his Supergirl actress continue to voice the same character in a non-DCU connected universe. Though I really appreciated them turning Mon El into a villain, I can’t say I’ll miss it.
Con: Meg is less recognizable than Milly Alcock, who was in House of the Dragon. Superman has a tendency to cast more unknown actors but I believe the rest of DCU is going to have a balance of well known and lesser known actors for their big roles. I could see Supergirl being an instance where they try to cast a more well known actor to draw attention and put butts in seats.
Con: I don’t have any expectations for a canon LGBTQ Supergirl in live action and I’m perfectly content knowing I’ll probably have to headcanon her meeting and falling in love with a DCU Lena Luthor that will probably never be seen in live action. However, by all accounts, Meg Donnelly seems straight and she gives off more straight girl energy, like I’m not sure she could convincingly play queer. It’s not a dealbreaker by any means, it’s just not ideal for what I personally would want out of a Supergirl casting.

Dan-el god of death 2
Danny was so exited! Clockwork had sent him to an Alien planet! Well technically he was the alien, but he was on another planet! From the looks of it their culture had just entered its medieval era and was ending a massive war. Danny was sent to cleanup all the resentful undead and evil cults, but surly Clockwork wouldn't mind if he experienced some culture. Right?
Due to Clockworks amulet he could translate their language and his name came out as Dan-el. Which was close enough. Apparently alot of the people had seen his fights with the undead. He hung around and taught them somethings and learned about their culture, religion, and most important their stars. Till one day he looked around and had an "Oh Shit" moment when he discovered maybe he had gone to far and taught to much. He had to leave.
Clockwork sent him back to Krypton( Why did that sound so familiar?) multiple times. Each time Danny found himself in new era's. Then Danny noticed something. As the people, Kryptonians, thanked and praised him, he started to feel it. He started to notice that he was getting stronger in and out of time travel. He wondered why?
Clockwork told him. He told of how Krypton had dubed him the god of death. How they told the legend of his deeds on and off Krypton. His fights with Plasmius and Pariah Dark, his half death, and his powers. All went down as in Kryptonian mythology of Dan-el the god of death. Then he learned of Krypton's fate and the last Kryptonians. (Danny cried)
A week later as Danny lay in bed failing to go to sleep, he felt it. Someone still believed.
