GEOFF JOHNS Pens an Open & Personal Letter to Read Before You Watch STARGIRL

The DC TV series Stargirl is scheduled to debut May 11 on DC Universe (and follow soon after on CW), but Warner Bros. Television (who produces the show) have sent out advance copies of the first three episodes for press to review - as well as a personal letter from the show's creator/co-showrunner Geoff Johns.

Johns has a personal attachment to Stargirl, as not only was it his first DC Comics series - but it is also based on his late sister Courtney, who was killed in an airplane disaster.

WBTV has given Newsarama permission to share Johns personal message with our readers. Look for our review when WBTV's embargo lifts.

To Everyone About To Watch Stargirl –

I know you have real life concerns to deal with, as we all do, so if you are watching these I hope it's to take a break from it and I'd encourage you to watch Stargirl with your family. It's what the show was created for and what the show is about -- and, quite frankly, right now is the time to be with family.

My entire career began with heroes. A cold call to Superman director Richard Donner's office landed me an internship that eventually led to me being Dick's assistant in 1996. During that first year working for him, my sister - Courtney - was killed in the TWA flight 800 disaster. Courtney was on her way to France as a foreign exchange student. She was 18. She was smart, funny and endlessly enthusiastic. Dick bought my ticket home to Detroit and told me I would have a job waiting for me in Los Angeles whenever I was ready to come back. That fall, we shot a film called Conspiracy Theory in New York. He invited my parents to the set and put them in the movie. It was the first time I remember them smiling and having fun since my sister's death. Dick was my hero for that.

A year later, I sold my first comic book proposal to DC Comics. It was called Stars & S.T.R.I.P.E.. The premise, which is also the premise of the show, was that teenager Courtney Whitmore's mother, Barbara, marries mechanic Pat Dugan and Courtney (reluctantly) moves with them from Los Angeles to Nebraska. In Nebraska, Courtney discovers that her new step-father used to be a superhero sidekick and steals his partner's old stuff, taking it for a joy ride. Ultimately, Courtney takes on the mantle of Stargirl and Pat is forced to come out of retirement and becomes a sidekick to his step-daughter as S.T.R.I.P.E. It is a story about how family is created by bond, not blood. Stargirl was, obviously, named after and inspired by my sister, Courtney. It is her spirit and optimistic energy that I wanted to put back in the world with Stargirl. It is celebratory, forward-looking and positive. And I hope that comes through when you watch these episodes.

I've written a lot of superhero stories in my career, but this is by far the most personal on every level. The cast, crew and everyone involved has given their talent and passion to bringing Stargirlto life and I couldn't be more grateful for them. I think their hard work paid off and, at the very least, I hope you smile a few times while you watch Brec Bassinger, playing Courtney, and Luke Wilson, playing Pat, take up their mantles individually and together.

I apologize for the length of this "introductory" note. Weeks ago, I had thought it would be a simple paragraph or two. But now, I almost feel apologetic for assuming you have the time to watch Stargirl. Again, thank you, and if anyone wants to talk further about the show, I'd be happy to.

Best to you and your family –

Geoff Johns

DC & CW's STARGIRL Debut Postponed

DC has decided to postpone the debut of its upcoming live-action series Stargirl. Previously announced to debut May 11, the Geoff Johns-led series will now debut on DC Universe May 18 - with a CW broadcast on May 19. DC did not disclose the reason for the change.

Stargirl remains scheduled to release weekly episodes every Monday on streaming, then on CW the following day.

"I've written a lot of superhero stories in my career, but [Stargirl] is by far the most personal on every level," Johns said earlier this week in  a letter to the press. "The cast, crew and everyone involved has given their talent and passion to bringing Stargirl to life and I couldn't be more grateful for them. I think their hard work paid off and, at the very least, I hope you smile a few times while you watch Brec Bassinger, playing Courtney, and Luke Wilson, playing Pat, take up their mantles individually and together."

DC originally announced that Stargirl would debut in August/September 2019, but they have since pushed back the show on several occasions.

wow, commento prima di MoS? :lol:

buon pilot, l'adattamento al fumetto è piuttosto fedele e ho trovato azzeccati gli attori per i personaggi; buoni effetti speciali, si vede abbiano sganciato qualche dindino in più rispetto alle serie CW (che ricordiamo, benché la serie venga trasmessa anche lì, è comunque DC Universe).
Proseguo volentieri

We are called Cybermen. We were exactly like you once, but our cybernetic scientists realised that our race was getting weak. Our lifespan was getting shorter, so our scientists and doctors devised spare parts for our bodies until we could be almost completely replaced. Our brains are just like yours, except that certain weaknesses have been removed. Weaknesses like... emotions, pain. You will become like us. You will be upgraded.

Man of Steel

Ahhh shiieeet! Non so perchè, ma pensavo uscisse domani! :lolle:
Mi preparo subito! :bava:

È perché la CW la trasmette domani, però già si trova quella di DC Universe (più lunga di 5 minuti)

Eh quasi! Infatti mi ricordavo di questa cosa e nemmeno consideravo la CW, dato che aveva la versione ridotta, sai cosa mi ha fregato? Il fuso orario! :P
Solitamente tocca sempre aspettare un giorno, ma non per le serie che vanno in onda sul canale streaming della DC!
Però a furia di bombardare CW... :lolle:

Anyway... ho visto il "Pilot"
E wow! :w00t:
BELLISSIMO, un pilot veramente costruito bene!
Ora non dico che questa serie diventerà la nuova Buffy, però fra target, potenziale e certe atmosfere, siamo lì dai... :lol:
Puntata che mi ha regalato tanta tanta gioia, mi sono proprio emozionato e non me lo aspettavo, probabilmente perchè mi sono messo nei panni del buon Geoff e...cioè io non oso nemmeno immaginare il brivido che avrà provato nel portare in vita questi pg, dalla JSA fino a....Stargirl... :cry:
Aveva recentemente postato anche una lettera dove si nota da subito tutta la sua grande passione per questi pg, specialmente il suo amore per Courtney, roba che ti porta le lacrime agli occhi, chi conosce il pg sa il perchè. :dowson:

E niente, concordo in toto col buon Clod per quanto riguarda la parte tecnica, il budget non sarà elevato, ma c'è un modo di fare le cose, e non mi riferisco solo allo storytelling, ma proprio agli effetti speciali, ne parlava Geoff in una intervista, roba che usano nei film insomma.
Quindi nulla a che vedere con le serie CW, mentre DCU...
A parte giusto Titans, è tutta roba di qualità, ma volendo anche la fotografia di Titans non è che faccia cagare, però i pezzi grossi rimangono Swamp Thing e la Doom Patrol.
Vabbe, tornando a Stargirl, ci tengo ad aggiungere -ma subito, schietto, all'istante!- che il casting di Courtney è perfetto! :wub:
Anche qui, se ne è occupato mastro Geoff, ha visto mille ragazze e ha scelto lei...praticamente appena l'ha vista in atto.

This day was FATED!
Era destino che sarebbe arrivato questo giorno, e arriverà più volte.
Debutto live action in Smallville, ancora ricordo quelle due puntate PAZZESCHE! :wub:
Uno in Legends of Tomorrow (veramente poca roba) e ora finalmente ha una serie tutta sua.
E come hanno gestito in questa puntata il "coming of age" di una ragazza come Courtney...heh, continuo a dirlo, ma è più forte di me...era perfetto.
Non sono l'unico che ama queste cose, altrimenti un film come Into the Spiderverse non avrebbe avuto tutto quel successo.
Non solo coming of age, ma anche il concetto di famiglia e legacy! :')
Sono tutte cose che non andranno mai fuori moda!

Molto felice, super soddisfatto, e questo stupido sorriso che ho ancora stampato in faccia ne è la conferma! :lol:
In mezzo a momenti teen e solari, spero anche in qualche figata fumottosa, roba da Hypercrisis, ma staremo a vedere.
Già vedere Jay o Alan sarebbe il TOP, magari nella season's finale.
È molto fedele al comic, ma vedo...già certe libertà creative, per carità, cosa buona e giusta da fare, anzi...siccome è tutto gestito proprio dal creator del pg, io parlerei proprio della sua evoluzione!

Ora si aspetta la prossima puntata, ma ho già capito che il hype-monkey mi porterà a rileggere i vecchi comics, partendo proprio da Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. where everything (ma everything per davvero) began! :dok:

Al solito, i tuoi commenti mi caricano parecchio  :asd:
Aspetto la puntata con i sub  :pazzia:

Man of Steel

Provo tanto amore per questi pg, ma faccio un baffo a Geoff! :asd:
Non poteva fallire, non qui. :wub:

La prima stagione ha 13 ep e già questa è una bella cosa. :zuzu:
