Warner Bros. Discovery‘s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow film has officially found its writer, as The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Ana Nogueira has been tapped to write the upcoming DC Universe project.
The film, which is in early development and has no real plot information as of yet, is set to follow Kara Zor-El, the cousin of Superman. The movie was announced by James Gunn earlier this year as one of the bigger projects in the newly starting DC Universe.
Currently, no director or stars are attached to the project.
Nogueira was hired by DC Studios back in June to write for the DC Universe for some then-unknown projects.
Ana Nogueira is both a writer and an actress. She wrote the 2016 play Empathitrax and wrote and starred in the 2018 short film We Win. Alongside being set to adapt the short story Mothers, Lock Up Your Daughters, Nogueira penned an upcoming play titled Which Way to the Stage. As an actress, she has appeared on shows like Hightown, The Vampire Diaries, The Blacklist, and The Michael J. Fox Show.
The DC Universe’s first phase, called Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, will feature a multitude of different movies and television shows. A few of the announced projects include Superman: Legacy, a Batman and Robin-focused movie called The Brave and the Bold, a Supergirl movie titled Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, a Swamp Thing film, and multiple TV shows.
