The first
images from the midseason premiere of Supergirl have
been revealed today and they’re particularly exciting as for this instalment, Kevin Smith is at the helm. The
filmmaker has directed two episodes of The Flash, but this marks his first entry into the
world of the Girl of Steel in the appropriately titled “Supergirl Lives.”
For more on
what to expect from this episode of Supergirl, here’s the recently released
synopsis courtesy of The CW:
“Kara (Melissa
Benoist) is moved by the story of a missing woman named Izzy (guest star Harley
Quinn Smith) and decides to investigate despite Snapper Carr’s (guest star Ian
Gomez) order to leave it alone. Kara takes Mon-El (Chris Wood) with her to the
last place Izzy was seen and the duo find themselves thrust through a portal to
another planet, Slaver’s Moon, where the downtrodden are sold as slaves. The
leader of the trafficking ring is none other than Roulette (guest star Dichen
Lachman). To make matters worse, Slaver’s Moon has a red sun, which means Kara
and Mon-El are stripped of their powers and stuck on the planet with no way
home. Meanwhile, back on Earth, Alex (Chyler Leigh) blames herself for Kara’s
disappearance, fearing she’s become too focused on her new relationship with
Maggie (guest star Floriana Lima) and too complacent in watching out for her
sister. Kevin Smith directed the episode with story by Andrew Kreisberg and
teleplay by Eric Carrasco & Jess Kardos.”
Supergirl has been doing well since it moved
from CBS to The CW, something which was reflected by the fact that the network recently
renewed the series for a third season. Seeing Kara Danvers enter
Roulette’s fight club was already a ton of fun when it was on Earth, but
placing the action on an alien planet where the hero is rendered powerless
should be even better.
Smith
brought a lot to the table in the Scarlet Speedster’s world and should be able
to do the same with this upcoming episode of Supergirl,
making it a must-watch and what will no doubt be a great way to kick off the
second half of the season.
