Supergirl

This will serve as an origin story for Supergirl, The Last Daughter of Krypton. She is the last of her people: in this universe, not even Kal-El survived. The main villain of this movie would be Eradicator and his motives will be similar to his motives in Superman Vol. 1: Son of Superman. I have decided to set this film in the same universe as the 2011 Green Lantern movie. This Supergirl movie could even reference Hal a few times and even hint that Kara and Hal will team up at some point.
