DCEU Casts Its First Latina Supergirl to Debut in The Flash Film

The Young and the Restless star Sasha Calle will play Supergirl in the upcoming DC Extended Universe Flash solo film.

"I saw more than four hundred auditions. The US,Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia," director Andy Muschietti told Deadline. "The talent pool was truly amazing and it was very hard to make a decision, but we finally found an actress who was destined to play this role." Notably, none of those auditioning were told which role they were trying out for.

Supergirl is just the latest addition to a Flash film that's expected to draw from Flashpoint and feature multiversal elements. This includes multiple Batman in Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck.
