Meg DeLacy and Jake Austin Walker Join the Cast of STARGIRL

DC Universe’s Stargirl continues to grow its cast. According to CB, Meg DeLacy from The Fosters will be playing Cindy Burman who eventually becomes the villain Shiv. Here’s a quick description of Cindy:

“Cindy Burman is Blue Valley High’s most popular student…and its most feared. Secretly the daughter of Dragon King (played by Nelson Lee), a longtime enemy of the Justice Society of America, Cindy is determined to follow in her father’s footsteps.”

In addition to DeLacy, Jake Austin Walker from Fear the Walking Dead and Rectify is also joining the cast. The catch is that Walker’s role is being kept secret at the moment. There are plenty of members of the Justice Society of America he could be, or it’s possible he’ll also be a villain like DeLacy. Who would you like to see him cast as?

“Stargirl follows high school sophomore Courtney Whitmore as she inspires an unlikely group of young heroes to stop the villains of the past. This new drama reimagines Stargirl and the very first superhero team, the Justice Society of America, in an unpredictable series. The project focuses on the character that started executive producer Geoff Johns’ career as a comic book writer when he created her in 1999, lovingly inspired by his late sister, who was killed in a 1996 plane explosion.”

Stargirl is expected to premiere on DC Universe in late 2019.
