Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow wasn't always meant to follow Superman, but its strong script by Ana Nogueira and the quick hiring of director Craig Gillespie fast-tracked the project.
Gunn confirmed that other DCU films had been written, but Supergirl's script was simply the 'best option' and 'more important than telling a grandiose mega-narrative.'
