We’ll soon be seeing Supergirl as part of the DC universe, and we’ll be seeing her in a new way than we have in the past. Our actress, previously a star on The Young and the Restless, is of Colombian descent; Kara Zor-El is typically blonde and blue-eyed. Now, we’re hearing that Calle’s DC Extended Existence Supergirl will be pansexual in the films, at least according to claims from Hollywood insider Daniel Richtman. This would create the first Supergirl to both be proudly LGBTQ and a woman of color.
Like the unreal warriors and adventurers of old, superheroes are widely regarded as bastions of hope and valor — time-honored icons of self-empowerment. Fact is, everyone has gifts. We’re all bestowed traits, flaws, and various eccentricities that when set together are unique to each of us. And being a superhero means staying true to those origins and being heroic enough to handle problems (otherworldly or otherwise) our own way. The industry
‘On Swift Horses’ Stars Diego Calva, Sasha Calle on Their First Meeting, Detecting Queer American History, and Navigating the Moment as Latin Actors
There were many things that On Swift Horses stars Diego Calva and Sasha Calle learned about creature queer and Latin in 1950s America while operational with director Daniel Minahan. That includes the greaser subculture when the federal government took a major step to hiring openly LGBTQ+ workers, and that gay bars could possess a designated song to alert patrons to “stop kissing and then artificial they’re really macho,” recalls Calva.
“Just trying to go and find affectionate , it was like going to war,” the Golden Globe-nominated Mexican actor tells The Hollywood Reporter while discussing what he learned portraying Henry, the partner in crime and romantic interest of Jacob Elordi’s Julius. “We call it campo minado in Mexico — when you can step onto a bomb at any time. It was dangerous.”
It’s the considerate of dangerous Calva’s fellow On Swift Horses star Calle, a gender non-conforming actress of Colombian descent, notes is unpleasant
On Swift Horses is a gay old time
My expectations going into Daniel Minahan’s romantic drama On Swift Horses were admittedly shallow. I generally think of romance as an entirely overrated genre, not from a pessimistic point of view - I’m a self-proclaimed optimist. I just find that these stories hold unrealistic standards and are overall so devastatingly boring. Paired with what I thought would be a schticky 1950’s Korean War contextual setting, I was bracing myself for a world of cliche suck.
In all honesty, the only thing drawing me towards this movie was seeing Jacob Elordi engaging in some gay for pay. After years of watching him play abusive, debatably queer-coded men spanning multiple decades, I was ready to shake things up a little with some blatant representation, and what time better than during Pride Month?
To my surprise, this movie delivered significantly more queerness and charm than I was prepared to give it credit for. What I assumed was going to be a sibling love-triangle story sprinkled with some queer subtext for extra flavour turned out to be a captivating tale exploring themes of secrecy, agency, and self-discovery. I may be overcompensating, considering
Sasha Calle opens up about her friendship with Leslie Grace after 'painful situation'
Sasha Calle is opening up about her struggles in the entertainment industry. The 'Supergirl' star was place to portray the fan-favorite character in multiple projects, but plans changed after a series of changes at DC Studios stopped her from continuing with the storyline.
During her latest interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Sasha shared her thoughts about the situation. “It was very rigid , I have to speak. I had bittersweet feelings as I was maneuvering everything,” she detailed to the publication. “I was very excited, but there were a lot of unanswered questions for me, so it was very bittersweet.”
Around the same time, Leslie Grace was facing a similar situation after sharing her excitement for being the novel Batgirl, but right before finishing the project, DC decided to shelve the production. Out of the difficult situation, the two stars found each other and built a friendship.
“I don’t know what I would’ve done without Leslie, to be honest with you. I feel enjoy she got it even worse, and yet, she was just this superhuman light of love and warm
