Stargirl Preview Images Introduce DC's Next-Gen Heroes and Villains

With three weeks to go before The CW and DC Universe's upcoming live-action Stargirl comes flying onto our screens (May 18 on the streaming service, following day on the network), we're getting a brand new look at Brec Bassinger's Courtney Whitmore and her cosmic staff in the form of a new set of preview images (which you can find below). Realizing her destiny but not given much time to learn how to embrace it, Courtney will have to learn on the job, especially if she wants to inspire the next generation of justice. Joining Courtney's Stargirl and stepdad/teammate Pat Dugan (Luke Wilson) aka big robot muscle S.T.R.I.P.E. on their new Justice Society are Anjelika Washington's Beth Chapel aka Doctor Mid-Nite; Yvette Monreal's Yolanda Montez aka Wildcat; and Cameron Gellman's Rick Tyler aka Hourman.

Of course, if you're a superhero team then you have to know that there's almost always going to be an equal-yet-opposing team of supervillains. Meet the Injustice Society, the villains that took down the original JSA and who have every intention of repeating history: Henry King aka Brainwave (Christopher James Baker); Paula Brooks aka Tigress (Joy Osmanski); Lawrence "Crusher" Crock aka Sportsmaster (Neil Hopkins); Dr. Ito aka Dragon King (Nelson Lee); and Jordan Mahkent aka Icicle (Neil Jackson).
