KARA ZOR-EL AKA KARA DANVERS: 24 years old, Kara Zor-El is the daughter of Zor-El and Alura. Sent to Earth from the dying planet of Krypton to protect her cousin Kal-El, Kara's pod was knocked off course by Krypton's explosion, sending her ship into the Phantom Zone, where she slept in stasis for two decades. Her pod later escaped, and she arrived on Earth where she was placed with the Danvers family by an adult Kal-El (Superman), later becoming Kara Danvers. She is the personal assistant of Cat Grant at CatCo Worldwide Media. Starting in the pilot episode, Kara is forced to bust out her super moves in public during an unexpected disaster. Energized by her heroism for the first time in her life, she begins embracing her abilities in the name of helping the people of her city, earning herself a super moniker along the way. Supergirl is played by Melissa Benoist.
