Following Sasha Calle's official unveiling as Supergirl in a new trailer for The Flash, the character was immortalized in her first official piece of merchandise.
Calle looks to finally take her place in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) as The Flash prepares for its June 2023 release, marking the heroine's first-ever appearance on the big screen after years of starring roles in DC Comics.
While her specific arc is still a mystery, Calle saw her first official action in The Flash's Super Bowl LVII trailer, showing off her speed, strength, and heat vision. Considering that she's so new to the DCEU and to the legacy of all DC movies, she'll be an important piece of the marketing campaign moving forward as well.

Will Supergirl Help The Flash Movie Succeed?
Having Supergirl in The Flash will only help add another layer of depth to everything this story wants to tell, especially considering how deep into the Multiverse this movie will go.
With this being the heroine's first live-action movie, she'll play a huge role in getting fans excited for the DCEU's remaining slate of movies before massive changes take effect under James Gunn.
For the time being, it's unclear if The Flash will be Sasha Calle's only time playing Supergirl, especially with plans for the character to get her own story under new DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran.
The two have already confirmed a Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow movie coming in the next few years, although it's still unknown if Calle will play the role under the franchise's new leadership.
But for now, she gets to enjoy having this new Funko Pop! focused on her heroine as fans gear up to see her soaring into action this summer.
The Flash will arrive in theaters on June 16.
