The extended trailer for Stargirl season 3 previews several returning DC Comics villains, Starman's mentorship, and the rise of a new foe in the upcoming season. While the Arrowverse has had a shake-up this year, the fall season won't be DC TV-less. Initially launched as a DC Universe original, Stargirl became one of The CW's popular DC TV shows in season 1, before becoming an exclusive CW show in season 2 and beyond. Stargirl follows Courtney Whitmore, who becomes the titular heroine after discovering the great legacy of the Justice Society of America. While embarking on her own heroic journey, Courtney also revives the Golden Age team with the next generation of superheroes.
While not a traditional Arrowverse spinoff, Stargirl is adjacent to the franchise. Crisis on Infinite Earths established that Stargirl exists on a revamped version of Earth-2, which used to be the home of The Flash's Jesse Quick, Harry Wells, and Arrow's Black Siren. Stargirl season 2 also began to build its bridge to the overall Arrowverse when The Flash's John Wesley Shipp appeared as Jay Garrick, the same iteration he has played for years. Following the big battle against Eclipso in season 2, Stargirl season 3 is set to focus on Courtney and the team's third year as superheroes while dealing with new and familiar threats.
