July 16, 2012: Molly Quinn to Voice Supergirl in New Animated Movie

Molly Quinn TVGuide.com reports that Castle star Molly Quinn will voice the role of Supergirl in an upcoming animated movie set to be released in 2013.

    The 18-year-old actress is voicing the role of Supergirl in an upcoming animated project based on a popular DC Comics storyline. "I'm so excited to be a part of the DC family, not to mention helping Superman fight crime," Quinn told TV Guide Magazine. "Yes, I am a supergirl!"

    The as-yet-untitled project, the latest in a successful series of DVD movies from Warner Bros. Animation and DC Entertainment, adapts a 2008 story by Geoff Johns featuring Superman's nemesis Brainiac and the bottle city of Kandor, which survived the destruction of Krypton, Superman's home planet.

    "I'm thrilled about our 'Super' project," she said of the movie, which will be released in 2013. "And that my character happens to be named Supergirl? Well, that's just a bonus."

The story described above is the "Superman: Brainiac" comic book saga written by Geoff Johns in which Superman faces off against Brainiac, who (Superman discovers) is responsible for the disappearance of both the entire Kryptonian city of Kandor and the death of hundreds of Kryptonians. When Brainiac turns his sights to Earth and adds the city of Metropolis to his collection of miniaturized specimens, the Man of Steel must confront a far more powerful and cruel opponent than he ever dreamed of, and Supergirl must overcome her own misgivings about her power in order to stop Brainiac's robotic minions from destroying the Earth.
