From the article:

According to the outlet, the producers are searching for "Caucasian females, age 22 to 26, to play 24" for the role of Kara Zor-El or Kara Danvers (a reference to the "Linda Danvers" version of the character no doubt) as she will be called on Earth. The site notes that "as the series’ mythology goes, Kara at age 12 was sent from her dying home planet of Krypton to Earth, where she was taken in by the Danvers, a foster family who taught her to be careful with her extraordinary powers. After repressing said skills for more than a decade, Kara is forced to bust out her super moves in public during an unexpected disaster. Energized by her heroism for the first time in her life, she begins embracing her abilities in the name of helping the people of her city, earning herself a super moniker along the way."

Another character included in the breakdown, though, is Kara's foster sister Alexandra “Alex” Danvers, who is described as "Kara’s gorgeous, brilliant, science-minded foster sister. Growing up, Alex was partly jealous of her sibling yet also fascinated by her abilities, prompting Alex to learn as much as she could about alien anthropology, sociology and culture. Today, Alex works for a secret government organization and, alongside her heroic sis, will face many challenges, both mundane and super."
Linda "Danvers"? Sounds, "Marvel"ous...

CBS have confirmed that Whiplash star Melissa Benoist will play Supergirl in the upcoming TV series of the same name. Other credits include Homeland and The Good Wife, but like The Flash's Grant Gustin, Benoist is pehaps best known for the popular singalong series Glee. In Supergirl, she will play Kara Zor-El, who escaped her home planet of Krypton amid its destruction years ago. Since arriving on Earth, she has concealed the powers she shares with her famous cousin. But now, at age 24, she decides to embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be. A number of key roles still need to be cast. Thoughts on this latest small screen Supergirl?

I'm excited for the series. No idea who she is (same as Gustin when he was cast), but I have faith in DC.

I've wanted a Supergirl show since the Smallville appearances. I'm ready

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Super excited! Pun not intended.

My girlfriend used to watch Glee, and I've caught her in a few scenes here and there.

I like the way she carries herself; reminiscent of Turner's Supergirl. I think she'll do a great job.
