Unexpected Alien in Supergirl Artwork Sparks Fan Confusion

USAFri Jun 05 2026
A new illustration of the DC superheroine has drawn surprise from viewers because it shows a creature that looks eerily similar to a character from the Star Wars universe. The drawing, created by Bilquis Evely, is part of a promotional set for the upcoming film. While the artwork captures the main cast in vivid detail, a small background figure stands out. Fans noticed that this alien resembles Lexo Sooger from The Last Jedi, down to the necklace it wears. The resemblance is so close that some viewers think it was an intentional nod, but the evidence suggests otherwise. Evely’s references for the piece appear to have mixed up sources, bringing in a creature from Canto Bight by accident. The original Supergirl poster shows the same look, yet it is unclear how a Star Wars character slipped into the design.
This mix‑up may reflect the broader theme of the movie, which promises a truly interstellar adventure. Supergirl will travel across space on a quest for revenge while carrying the weight of a dying companion. The film’s lead, Milly Alcock, has spoken about portraying a heroine who embraces her imperfections. She said in a recent interview that real stories do not require flawless protagonists, and she hopes to show this through Kara Zor‑El. The movie also stars Jason Momoa, Eve Ridley and Matthias Schoenaerts. It will hit theaters on June 26th. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how the story unfolds and whether any other unexpected elements will appear on screen.
