Gemma Atkinson to be Cbs' Supergirl?

The source is a little dubious, but a new report claims that British actress and model Gemma Atkinson has auditioned for the role of Supergirl in the upcoming CBS adaptation of the DC Comics property. It’s fair to say that she certainly looks the part!
We learned yesterday that we may find out who will play Supergirl in the upcoming TV series literally any day now, but could it be Gemma Atkinson who will don the cape and tights? Spoiler TV point to a report in The Sun which claims that she’s auditioned for the iconic role, and while the source is obviously far from reliable, an audition at the very least seems like a possibility. After all, you have to imagine that a number of actresses have tried out for this part, and that fact that the former Hollyoaks star is an unknown in the US could be exactly what CBS and DC Entertainment are looking for. Anyway, take this one with a pinch of salt for the time being, and see Gemma in action as the face of USA Pro in the video below. Do you think she would make a good Supergirl?

  1. Hell no, to old, too busty and Supergirl ain’t British? How would one develop a British accent, growing up on Kryton and then living in central states? If anything, she could play Kara’s sister or perhaps play the part of powergirl if they include her at any point. Please don’t choose a 30 year old for a 22 year old part. How would you expect it to be a long running show when she starts getting wrinkles by the 3rd season?

      1. Not just Rick on the Walking Dead, Maggie, Morgan are also British.. I love watching people freak out when they hear their normal accents during interviews.. 😉

  2. Well to me it doesn’t matter how you look like as long as you can play the part and look good doing it. Like Tom Welling great actor love Smallvile. But once he put the Superman suit on, its like “dude take it off.” In my oppinion he didn’t look good at all. And like in Superman Returns Brandon Routh good actor and looked hella bad ass in the Superman suit. To bad he couldn’t keep the suit. So we’ll just see how good she will look in that supergirl suit regarless of her figure. That’s if she gets the part lol

  3. Wouldn’t it be a twist both claire and Gemma already were hired and they’re just toying with us. Claire as Kara and Gemma as Alex.

  4. Gemma Atkinton can wants to Supergirl which Power Girl play cast of course British Actress can try
    again next year asking executive producer mean question interesting young keep self.
