I find her New 52 costume to be even more redonculous than those of the other tentpole characters. I'm just hoping the final costume is a little more Flash and a little less Smallville.
Supergirl TV Series is being work on.

Cat Grant will look a lot like Ally McBeal apparently. Perhaps they should merge this with David E. Kelley's abortive Wonder Woman project:

That's one scary drawing of Cat.
Side stepping Perry White?
I wonder if she'll be stealing his dynamic with Jimmy "And don't call me Chief!"

And old picture of Calista..
Pity that Brandon Routh is busy with Arrow (though I'm enjoying him there), I'd love to have seen him as this show's Superman.
I'm wondering if he can? Would it trip legalities if components of different Supermen are "rights" that are held by different people other then Warners, DC or Shuster's family.
I don't think Chris suited up in his Muppet Show episode, even though every one kept asking him to and the uniform was "seen" in his wardrobe but not put on... Although, a different landscape entirely, but George Reeves was completely Superman on I Love Lucy.

Seeking for "body double" seems to me that we wont actually see Superman that much. Probably flying in distance or briefly seen in first episodes. Maybe they dont even show his face clearly. Just his "square jaw"
Encouraging if true, though. It means that Superman is out in the open, so Supergirl can embrace the role of a full-fledged superhero rather than a mysterious, rarely-seen phenomena.
Like Vera from Cheers.
What about the Cyborg Superman or the Eradicator from the Reign of the Superman?
Hells. Bring on Bizarro.
Bizarro Supergirl is a must too. Ice Vision and flame breath are cool.
I luv this version of Bizarro.

^ I could take or leave seeing them again but I'd have liked to see Routh in the cape another time (even though I think Cavill is also an excellent Superman).
I never found Routh convincing as Superman, although I'm really liking him as Ray Palmer on Arrow. Which makes me think the problem with him in Superman Returns was more to do with the writing/directing than the casting. If he'd played Superman the way he plays Palmer, I might've actually been able to buy him as Superman.
On the other hand, I think Superman was badly mishandled in Man of Steel, basically reduced to a second banana to the film's real hero Jor-El, but I find Henry Cavill totally convincing in the role. He's the first actor since Christopher Reeve that I've been able to look at and just totally believe that I'm seeing Superman, even though the script didn't really let him be Superman. So I'm not sure how to reconcile those.
Based on audition sides and other bits of character info, I'm pretty sure that they're looking for this Superman body double in order to facilitate the character appearing in the Pilot via photographic means.
I also wouldn't be surprised if we see the character in 'archive' video footage as well, especially if we see Alex and her boss Henshaw talk about both him and Kara (as audition sides indicated we might).

I'm pretty sure anything from the TV shows and movies would be part of the same rights as everything else. But I'm not sure how the whole thing with the family of Jerry Siegel effects this kind of stuff. I did notice when I was looking at a preview for one of the new Superman coimics that there's now a new credit for the family. At the very end of the credits it now says by special arrangement with the Jerry Siegel family. I'm assuming it must not hurt things to much since we're still getting Superman V Batman and Justice League.
