Actress Brec Bassinger already knows who she wants to see DC's Stargirl crossover with first: Supergirl. Created by Geoff Johns and Lee Moder, the character of Courtney Whitmore made her comic book debut in DC Comics' Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E series, which ran for 15 issues between 1999 and 2000. Originally known as the second iteration of the Star-Spangled Kid, she ultimately changed her moniker to Stargirl after coming into possession of the Cosmic Staff. As well as being adapted for animation, the character previously made minor live-action appearances on both Smallville and Legends of Tomorrow. Debuting on the DC Universe streaming service, and, subsequently, on The CW, the new iteration will be the definitive version - with Johns (who based the character on his late sister) himself overseeing the production.
Played by Bassinger, Stargirl picks up with Courtney moving to a new town after her mother Barbara (Amy Smart) marries Pat Dugan (Luke Wilson). Courtney quickly discovers that Pat used to be a sidekick to Starman (Joel McHale) and is chosen by the Cosmic Staff to take up his mantle. Though only a handful of episodes into its first season, it's already known that Courtney will form a new generation of the Justice Society of America and square off against their villainous counterparts in the form of Injustice Society. Stargirl season 1 has already enjoyed an impressive reception from fans and critics alike.
Speaking with the folks over at TV Guide, Wilson revealed that Bassinger is already looking to the future. After Bassinger and Smart praised the pleasant and exciting surprise that was joining the established family and fanbase of the Arrowverse (rather than just the DC Universe, as was first planned), talk quickly turned to potential crossovers. "Someone asked, 'would storylines ever, you know, start connecting from other shows', and Brec was saying that she'd like to do something with Supergirl," Wilson stated. Bassinger then chimed in with her reasoning: "I said Supergirl because I think Supergirl and Stargirl, like, just their names, in general, lend to them needing to work together."
Wilson himself, however, shared that he thought a team up with The Flash "would be cool" once the first season was complete in its own right and they could broaden the horizons. Smart, meanwhile, admitted that she wasn't yet familiar enough with the ever-expanding shared universe to offer a recommendation of her own. Bassinger then just agreed with the idea that they could just crossover with all of them, alluding to the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event that took place earlier this year. Stargirl (and her fledgling team) actually made a cameo appearance on the aforementioned crossover, establishing them as being residents of Earth-2.
A more direct merger of the respective worlds feels inevitable. And focusing that that on a collaboration between Stargirl and Supergirl, especially, would make a lot of sense. Not only would it allow the heroes of the Arrowverse to finally learn that the multiverse still exists but it would fit within the mantra for more intimate crossovers post-Crisis. Despite their budding friendship, Batwoman is set to cross streams with Superman & Lois rather than Supergirl. As a result, the Girl of Steel's schedule is wide open. Equally, the fact that Supergirl's Kara Danvers is now as experienced at heroism as Stargirl's Courtney Whitmore is a newcomer could make for a really interesting and fun mentor/mentee-style dynamic.
