Geoff Johns’ Stargirl series has cast Nickelodeon star Brec Bassinger as the titular superhero.
Bassinger is best known as Bella from Nickelodeon’s Bella and the Bulldogs, and has also appeared on the School of Rock TV series, The Goldbergs, and Hulu’s All Night.
The drama follows Bassinger as Courtney Whitmore, a high school sophomore who discovers her stepfather was the superhero S.T.R.I.P.E., and the former sidekick to the Star-Spangled Kid.
Johns will serve as the show’s executive producer, along with Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter, and also pen the pilot.
