The Big Picture In exciting news for fans of the DC Universe, Isabela Merced is set to bring the iconic character Kendra Saunders, also known as Hawkgirl, to life in the upcoming Superman film from James Gunn, and she cannot wait to take to the skies.
"I was a DC kid growing up. We had the action figures, and most of them were so old and used that the paint had come off... But I really adored Hawkgirl. I had Hawkgirl and Hawkman as part of my collection. Well, technically it wasn’t mine. It was my siblings and I’s collection. We had Hot Wheels too. We just had a really fun, enjoyable childhood with those. So, this is a full circle moment.
The possibility of playing Hawkgirl for an extended time in the expansive DC Universe is something Merced is tremendously excited about, especially considering the potential impact on fans. As Radish noted, Gunn has indicated that anyone cast in the new DCU could be playing these characters for years to come. Merced was nothing short of thrilled to commit long-term to the role.
Merced's enthusiasm and passion for joining the DC Universe shouldn't be overlooked, and for fans who can't wait to see Hawkgirl soar, Superman will fly into theatres on July 11, 2025. Stay tuned at Collider for more, including Radish's full conversation with Merced.
