Stargirl is still in its early stages of creation but even still, small tidbits of news are trickling out about the landmark show for DC Universe. As we reported earlier, the show is looking for more JSA legacy heroes to join and casting is underway for at least Wildcat and another JSA member. In addition, James Robinson, comic book writer of Starman, has joined the writers' room. Executive Producer Geoff Johns spoke briefly to Newsarama about the tone of the show:

It's about passing the torch and heroism for a new generation. Stargirl will be based on 'Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E', but will also encorporate new material.

The showrunner went on to announce that they are building a 15-foot tall S.T.R.I.P.E. robot for the show!

So far we know that Courtney Whitmore, now played by Brec Bessinger, will headline Stargirl. In addition, the show needs a Yolanda Montez and a Pat Dugan. Well today we've stumbled across another JSA character and her role remains a mystery! We've updated our spoilers page to include two new test scenes for the character. For now she is named "Rachel", but we believe that this is a filler name much like Tammy is likely being used for Yolanda. Beyond who the character might be, the scenes help us really understand the humor that is going to be in this show! We've mentioned before that we feel like this is a good continuation of the feeling we got watching Supergirl's Midvale. In addtion, after reading the test scenes (which may or may not appear in the show), there is an element of Marvel's famous balance of humor and action! We are only getting more excited!

Somewhat on the heels of the epic casting news that Brec Bassinger would take up the title role of Stargirl AKA, Courtney Whitmore, casting has commenced for the next new hero for the Justice Society of America, Wildcat. With New York Comic Con now over, the Executive Producers can get back to work on Stargirl which now has an August 2019 debut! No official description of the character has been revealed but our sources are pointing to the Yolanda Montez version of the character, though recent auditions have referred to the character's name as Tammy. For more information, including a new potential scene from the show, check out our spoilers page! Stargirl begins production in Atlanta, Georgia, January 2019.

DC Universe has released a new image that has the internet buzzing with excitement! The image in question (below) shows a release schedule for all the known original programing for the comic-based streaming service! Fans at New York Comic Con were treated to an advanced look at Titans yesterday along with surprise casting news for Doom Patrol (Matt Bomer joining as Negative Man). As NYCC continues, we're grabbing all the news that continues to pour out including this debut timeline.

While no official start date has been set, we can put on our speculation hats for a moment and do a little math. DC Universe debuts original programing on Fridays. That could mean, according to the image above, Stargirl may debut on August 23rd. Also, and take this with a grain of salt, judging by the length of the image and assuming that there will be a new episode every Friday, that means season 1 could be 18 - 19 episodes long! That sounds pretty incredible to us! On the heels of Titans getting an early season 2 renewal, the DC Universe streaming service looks to be off to a bright start!
