Ahead of the series premiere, characters from the series were featured in a cameo during the Arrowverse crossover "Crisis on Infinite Earths" through archive footage. It established Stargirl as existing on a parallel Earth to the Arrowverse. The show has received positive reviews from critics.

In the second season, Stargirl and the JSA contend with the re-emergence of former ISA member Shade and a mysterious entity known as Eclipso, who works with Cindy to create a new ISA called Injustice Unlimited. When Eclipso breaks free from Cindy's control, the JSA works to stop him and finds new allies in Jennie-Lynn Scott, Jakeem Williams, Thunderbolt, a rescued Charles McNider, a revived Starman, and former ISA members Solomon Grundy, Sportsmaster, and Tigress.

In July 2018, DC Universe gave a series order to Stargirl, consisting of thirteen episodes. The pilot was written by Geoff Johns, who also executive produces alongside Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, and Melissa Carter (who is co-showrunner with Johns).[44][45] Production companies involved with the series are Mad Ghost Productions, Berlanti Productions, and Warner Bros. Television. The series was said to be a "reimagining" of Stargirl.[44] The CW renewed the series for a second season in July 2020, resulting in the series moving exclusively to the network as a CW original series.[46] The second season is subtitled Summer School.[47] Ahead of the second-season premiere, The CW renewed the series for a third season in May 2021. The renewal allowed the series to be co-financed by HBO Max, part of a larger deal between The CW and HBO Max.[48] The third season is subtitled Frenemies.[49] The CW canceled the show with the third and last season, ending on December 7, 2022.[2][50]

Johns described Stargirl as having a similar tone to 1980s films such as E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and Back to the Future. The start of the series sees the deaths of the original members of the Justice Society of America (JSA). With the younger generation taking up their mantle, Johns said their "paths aren't complete. They don't know where they're going to be or what they're going to be. And so, there's all sorts of mistakes they can make and choices they can make, and who knows what their ultimate destiny will be?... It makes for a lot of fun and a lot of unpredictability". The members of the Injustice Society mirrors those on the JSA team, with Johns teasing that just about everyone who has been a member of the Injustice Society in the comics would appear in the series. Speaking to classic JSA members such as Alan Scott and Jay Garrick, Johns called them the "elderly statesmen" and that they "are spoken of and they exist in the JSA" with "their legacies... felt throughout the show". There were also "plans in the future for things". For the first season, star Brec Bassinger felt the original Doctor Mid-Nite, Charles McNider would have "a significant role to play", while Johns added the season would establish the Seven Soldiers of Victory as the first superhero team before the JSA and explore the history of the Cosmic Staff.[4] Regarding the death of Henry King, Jr., Johns revealed that he always "had a finite story", going "from this almost unlikeable bully to possibly a redeemed hero, and then ultimately die protecting his new friends when facing his father, while also learning a lesson that Courtney imparted on him and apologizing to Yolanda". Johns spoke with actor Jake Austin Walker before he signed on to play the character to inform him of this and discuss the character with him. The character's return in the season one finale with his father pretending to be his son was done to subvert the "nobody ever dies" superhero trope.[51]

Yolanda Montez's struggle with killing Brainwave was "a big part of season 2". Johns added that compared to Rick Tyler, who is "starting to kind of turn a corner" after overcoming his anger for his parents' death, Yolanda is "turning the other way... She's lost in her own world, thinking about what she has done" since she was not ready to kill someone, unlike Rick. Additionally, more motivations from the surviving members of the Injustice Society are explored in the second season.[51]

Brec Bassinger was cast as Courtney Whitmore / Stargirl in September 2018.[3] Johns called the casting of Stargirl a difficult process, auditioning hundreds of actresses for the role. On why Bassinger was perfect for the role, Johns said: "Immediately... I knew she was Courtney. She has the humor, she has the enthusiasm, the energy, the innate optimism, and Brec really embodies who Stargirl is".[4] The following roles were cast in November: Anjelika Washington as Beth Chapel / Doctor Mid-Nite,[53][4] Yvette Monreal as Yolanda Montez / Wildcat, and Christopher James Baker as Henry King / Brainwave.[54][4] In January 2019, Luke Wilson was cast as Pat Dugan / S.T.R.I.P.E.[11] Amy Smart joined the cast as Barbara Whitmore in February,[6] along with Neil Jackson as Jordan Mahkent / Icicle,[6][4] Trae Romano as Mike Dugan,[6] Hunter Sansone as Cameron,[6][12] and Cameron Gellman as Rick Tyler / Hourman.[55][4] Also Jake Austin Walker was cast as Henry King Jr. and Meg DeLacy cast as Cindy Burman.[7][8]

Zoic Studios provided visual effects for the series.[80] According to Johns, Stargirl was the first Warner Bros. Television series to use previsualization (a process most commonly used by feature films) for their effects scenes.[69] Previsualization was handled by The Third Floor, Inc.[72] Johns brought his experience working on the films Wonder Woman (2017), Aquaman (2018), and Shazam! (2019) to help the series have visuals not "seen in superhero shows before".[69]

Stargirl premiered on DC Universe on May 18, 2020,[82] with the first season consisting of 13 episodes.[83] The series was originally intended to premiere on May 11, seven days before its official release.[84] The series was released in 4K Ultra HD on DC Universe.[85]

In November 2019, The CW announced to broadcast each episode the day after it premieres on the streaming service, with each episode available to stream on The CW's online platforms after its broadcast.[45] Stargirl started airing on The CW on May 19, 2020, at 8 pm.[82] Some episodes have content removed when they air on The CW to allow for the network's commercials, notably approximately eight minutes in each of the first two episodes.[68] DC Universe streamed the full episodes,[69] and Johns said starting with the third episode, both releases are "almost identical".[68] The series release plans shifted and it stayed in post-production longer to accommodate the broadcast on The CW to accomplish the adjustments that had to be made.[72]

A teaser trailer was released in December 2019.[93] In early August 2020, The CW released several posters for its Arrowverse series with the superheroes wearing face masks, including Stargirl, with all posters having the caption "Real Heroes Wear Masks". This marketing tactic was used to "stress the importance of wearing masks while out in public to help stop the spread of" COVID-19.[89]

On Rotten Tomatoes, the first season has an approval rating of 89% based on 38 reviews, with an average rating of 7.61/10. The website's critical consensus reads: "A stellar series perfect for anyone looking for a little hope, Stargirl is delightful fun the whole family can enjoy".[134] On Metacritic it has a weighted average score of 68 out of 100 based on 8 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[135]

Stargirl and her team were briefly introduced in the Arrowverse crossover "Crisis on Infinite Earths" in January 2020,[142][143] through archive footage from "The Justice Society" episode.[144] Stargirl is set on a new Earth-2, created during the crossover.[142][143] Stargirl from the pre-Crisis Earth-1 had previously appeared in three episodes of season two of Legends of Tomorrow, portrayed by Sarah Grey, between October 2016 and February 2017.[145]

Regarding any proper crossovers with the Arrowverse, Johns and Bassinger were keen on the idea. Johns said that "right now the main concern is making sure that this show is great, that these characters are great, that they have their own stories and they get the proper screen time and the proper episodes to develop on their own. So hopefully in the future we can do something fun, but the first season is all about making sure that Stargirl is the best show it can possibly be". Bassinger added that there had already been preliminary discussion about crossing over with The Flash, and she was hopeful to be able to crossover with Melissa Benoist on Supergirl.[4] John Wesley Shipp reprised his role as an alternate version of Jay Garrick from The Flash.[64] Johns said Shipp's appearance helped connect "our universe directly with the other shows, and also shows that were part of a grander universe. It opens up the door to opportunities for us to eventually interact with those Arrowverse characters, and that was important".[146] ff782bc1db
