The Supergirl movie is missing a beloved moment from the Woman of Tomorrow comic. The upcoming film is directed by Craig Gillespie starring Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El.

What Woman of Tomorrow comic moment won’t be in the DCU Supergirl movie?

Tom King and Bilquis Evely’s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic is the source material for the Supergirl movie. While the live-action adaptation will follow the comic’s plot, not every element will end up on the big screen.

Speaking with Comicbook, Supergirl’s writer Ana Nogueira revealed that an iconic comic moment won’t be featured in the film. She mentioned that while there were many things she wanted to include, unfortunately, they had to be cut down. For example, the psychedelic Dragon sequence from the Woman of Tomorrow comic, involving Kara, where she ingests some Red Kryptonite to defeat a metal-eating Karpane Dragon.

When asked to mention the toughest part to remove from the movie, Nogueira said, “probably the panel of the Psychedelic Dragon [which] I think is really beloved and really gorgeous. So that was challenging… I think that particular panel with her, with the Red Kryptonite and the Psychedelic Dragon is just like gorge.”

Interestingly, the comic book also featured dinosaurs, but the movie won’t have them. “Somebody earlier was like, I was wondering if there’s gonna be dinosaurs. I was like, I was never gonna be able to be able to put in dinosaurs.”

This update aligns with what James Gunn previously revealed about the adaptation. Earlier this year, he stated that while the film is based on Woman of Tomorrow’s story, it won’t follow it religiously. “We’re taking elements of it. That’s a great comic book. I love it. But we’re not making that exact story.”

Besides Alcock in the lead role, Supergirl also features Jason Momoa as Lobo. Additional cast members include Eve Ridley, Matthias Schoenaerts, David Krumholtz, Emily Beecham, Ferdinand Kingsley, and Diarmaid Murtagh.

Supergirl will release in theaters on June 26, 2026.
