August 9, 2015: Executive Producer Sarah Schechter Talks "Supergirl"

Supergirl At last month's San Diego Comic-Con, Executive Producer Sarah Schechter spoke with media in a round table interview setting about the upcoming "Supergirl" TV series.

    "This is not a story about Superman," Schechter promised. "This is a story about Supergirl, who people really should know about. What's great about Supergirl as opposed to Superman is that she spent 13 years living on Krypton as a normal girl with no powers, and then not only does she have the trauma of everyone that she knows being killed, she comes to a world that tells teenage girls to suppress what makes them special. She comes to a world that tells teenage girls 'you should fit in. You shouldn't be all of you if it's different or weird.' So what's great about this story - and what makes it so interesting and so rich and so fun - is that for me, that's more relatable. I wasn't born with super powers, but what Kara's experiencing in this show is coming to terms with everything that she can be, and embracing who she is, and the things that make her different are also that make her great, and I think that as a message is so important and so relatable," she said.
