Here’s a fun bit of movie trivia: Sasha straight-up crushed the competition for Supergirl, snagging the role out of more than 400 hopefuls. Yeah, 400! That’s some serious Hunger Games energy right there. Casting directors went all out scouring for the perfect Kara Zor-El, and apparently Sasha just had that something nobody else could fake. It’s wild to think about how many rounds of auditions she probably had to power through, and all the nerves and late-night script readings that must’ve gone down. But hey, it worked—she landed it, and now she’s officially in the DC universe, cape and all. Fans were buzzing when the news broke, too. People always have opinions, but after seeing her screen test, most folks agreed she completely embodied the character. Honestly, that’s a glow-up story for the ages. Imagine telling your friends you’re Supergirl now. Total bragging rights.
Honestly, being the first Latina Supergirl? That hits different. There was this one time on set, Andy called me over to check out a scene on the playback monitor. I walked over, saw her—Supergirl, in all her badassery—and it just hit me. Like, wow. Little me would’ve lost her mind seeing this. I actually got choked up, not even gonna lie. It’s wild, you know? Growing up, you barely saw anyone like us in these roles, especially not flying around saving the world. So, to be that person now, it means everything. I straight up turned into a kid for a second, just watching it all happen. Huge shoutout to DC and Warner Bros for finally making this happen. About time, right? I’m just so grateful, honestly. Feels really cool to be part of something that’s actually gonna matter to so many people.
