As news continues to develop on the upcoming and debated 'Supergirl' TV series, we are given more information on how the character will fit into the DC television universe.

The good news is that producer Greg Bertlanti will be heading the whole operation, and with his recent success with both the 'Arrow' and 'The Flash', we can rest assured the series will be in good hands.

Bertlanti has ample experience bringing less popularized superhero characters to the small screen which is what perfectly qualifies him in adapting Superman's lesser known cousin.

Bertlanti provided this quote as to how pre-production has been coming along in a conversation with the Television Critcis Association:

"I hope you hear about casting soon or we're not going to be able to make the pilot... As with all these things, there's only one person. I can't imagine someone other than a lot of our actors playing these roles so I feel you're always just looking for that person."

We can interpret that as them having someone in mind to play Kara Zor-El, or Supergirl, but it hasn't been finalized.

There has been interest with the series being connected with the consistently growing 'Arrow' universe.

On that note, Bertlanti said, "So much has to go right [to have a crossover]. We have to make a great show. Again, I think of myself, if I were watching it I would want to see that, but we have to get so many things right to make a good show, and so much of it is luck unfortunately."

Adding, "That was really important to all of us (making a female-led superhero series) when we set out to working on it and it was really important to DC and it was really important to the women I'm working on the show with, the women that work at the studio and the women that work on the network. In a lot of ways I'm surrounded by more women on the project that can answer that question better."
