The small screen take of the adventures of Kara Zor-El are quickly coming to an end. Supergirl, which flew onto our TV and computer screens six years ago, wrapped filming its final episode yesterday.
To mark the last day of production, star Melissa Benoist (Kara Danvers/Supergirl) shared a photo of herself with original castmates Chyler Leigh (Alex Danvers/Sentinel) and David Harewood (J’onn J’onzz/Martian Manhunter), with a message saying,
“Thank you for an incredible 6 years—the cast who became family, everyone who worked on the show, all of you who watched us week after week ♥️♥️♥️ that’s a wrap on Supergirl.“
