Maybe it is the lighting, but her hair is looking more blonde, too.

Yes I agree. More buff and more blonde.
And perhaps more confident compared to those very first two promo shots...

Definitely more buff! It would make sense if she has started carrying planes and stopping trucks! I can just imagine the director at the end of a day's shoot tellling a tired out Melissa 'Get yourself to the gym, Supergirl!"

Love the pictures of her and Flash acting like they are starting a foot race. I wonder who everyone on here would pick as the winner...

I may be in the minority, but I think this always should be the Flash!
It's enough for me that Supergirl is vastly stronger, invulnerable, has heat vision, x-ray vision (etc), and is super fast, but not Flash-fast. Give the poor Flash something to call his own. Plus Flash tires and _eventually_ she'll catch him. Maybe if he's smart enough to run around on the dark side of the planet and can wear down her solar battery (it's always unclear how much power they store.)
I'd like the Super-family to be able to see Flash moving, but not really be able to catch him easily (though the TV Flash -- Supergirl would just track him and fry him with heat vision, he's not faster than light, and she'd be fast enough to hit him). But this is mostly with the comic book Flash who is speed of light fast/speed force/run through time/dimensions, etc.
I already have to suspend disbelief on how stupid Superman is when he fights, as he lets (to him) slow strong people connect and punch him through things. Really, watch just about any Superman fight where there is property damage, and if he's not fighting someone with Super-speed, or he was sucker punched, it's all his fault. (And I could write and essay on Doomsday vs. Superman and how stupid it is, and pretty much have )

I noticed that too. And imo, show looked pretty good in the trailer already, especially when she made her final reveal in the costume, striking "that" pose. As someone put it, "she has good shoulders". Now she has good arms to go with them
Roll on November
Peace.

Don't want to be that guy, but looking at this picture(which i am guessing was shot in the last week or so)-does Benoist look a lot more buff then in earlier pictures or the trailer. Her arms look a *lot* bigger then the Flashes in this pic. I think the suit is deisgned a touch to emphasis this..but it is noticable.
She looks like in the month or so since they shot the pilot she spent a lot of time in the gym.

Great line in this.
The last time CBS debuted a superhero series, 1990's The Flash, "there was no Internet," said Schweitzer. "So we've never seen any reaction like this. What do we know? We do crime procedurals and Chuck Lorre sitcoms."
Somehow that sums it up about perfect.

I don't know if I should mention it here but the Supergirl pilot has leaked on various torrents website a few hours ago !
Edit : @oogber sorry for repeating what you just said, I just saw your post. All I can say is I have just gotten my hands on it and I can confirm it looks very legit (The VFX seems final too)

It was bound to happen. I'm much more curious about the second episode, the series direction would be much clearer then. I'm not worried though I trust Greg Berlanti and crew would do with Supergirl what they did with the Flash and most likely better it.

Just to be clear.
ANYONE who posts a link to the pilot WILL be BANNED.
The rules on sharing pirated material is very clear, if people need reminding you can read them here

Tbh, this leak was to be expected. Same thing happened with the Wonder Woman pilot back in 2011 I think. That one had unfinished fx shots, but for the most part, was complete.
Leak or not, I'll still be watching and supporting in November.

I will say it again. It's killing me inside. When the trailer came out, a arrow hit me and smash my soul in to pieces. Everyday I'm trying to piece my soul back, one piece at the time. Now I have to start over again, and this time I CAN NOT WAIT FOR NOVEMBER.

Also no matter how good the trailer is, i suspect the pilot is going to have at least some polish done to it before November in effects, color correction and editing.
You watch it early you maybe a touch early as you don't see the final edit where the pants will be darkened.
