About Supergirl

Supergirl is a 1984 superhero film directed by Jeannot Szwarc and written by David Odell, based on the DC Comics character. It is a spin-off from the Superman film series and is set after the events of Superman III (1983). The film stars Helen Slater as Supergirl, along with Faye Dunaway, Hart Bochner, Peter Cook, Mia Farrow, Brenda Vaccaro, and Peter O'Toole, with Marc McClure reprising his role as Jimmy Olsen from the Superman films. It is the fourth film in the Superman film series, set after the events of Superman III (1983) and serving as a spin-off of the series. The film was released by Thorn-EMI Screen Entertainment (through Columbia-EMI-Warner Distributors Limited) in the United Kingdom on 19 July 1984 and by Tri-Star Pictures in the United States on 21 November 1984, to generally negative reviews from critics. It underperformed at the box office, grossing $14 million against a $35 million budget. Dunaway and O'Toole earned Golden Raspberry Award nominations for Worst Actress and Worst Actor, respectively. Slater was nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Actress. The film's failure ultimately led producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind to sell the Superman film rights to The Cannon Group, Inc. in 1986. Another Supergirl film would not be produced until 2026, when DC Studios released the DC Universe film Supergirl, with Milly Alcock in the title role.
