First trailer for DC’s new Stargirl live-action series

December 11, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Following a brief teaser earlier in the week, The CW has now unveiled the first trailer for the upcoming DC Universe superhero drama Stargirl series, which gives us our first look at Brec Bassinger’s teen hero in action; watch it here…

Stargirl will follow the story of Courtney Whitmore (Brec Bassinger) who is a smart, athletic and above all else kind girl. This high school teenager’s seemingly perfect life hits a major speedbump when her mother gets married and her new family moves from Los Angeles, California to Blue Valley, Nebraska. Struggling to adapt to a new school, make new friends and deal with a new step-family, Courtney discovers her step-father has a secret; he used to be the sidekick to a superhero. “Borrowing” the long-lost hero’s cosmic staff, Courtney becomes the unlikely inspiration for an entirely new generation of superheroes.

Featuring in the cast of Stargirl are Brec Bassinger (Bella and the Bulldogs) as Stargirl, Amy Smart (Justified) as Barbara Whitmore, Luke Wilson (Roadies) as Pag Dugan, Trae Romano (Robbie) as Pat Dugan, Joel McHale (Community) as Starman, Lou Ferrigno Jr. (S.W.A.T.) as Hourman, Brian Stapf (The Walking Dead) as Wildcat, Henry Thomas (The Haunting of Hill House) as Dr. Mid-Nite, Joy Osmanski (The Santa Clarita Diet) as Tigress, Neil Hopkins (Matador) as Sportsmaster, Nelson Lee (Mulan) as Dragon King, Meg DeLacey (The Fosters) as Cindy Burman, and Anjelika Washington (Young Sheldon), Yvette Monreal (Matador), Christopher James Baker (True Detective), Neil Jackson (Westworld), Hunter Sansone (Drama Drama) and Jake Austin Walker (Rectify) in as-yet-unrevealed roles.
