Supergirl may have to face her biggest challenge yet in an upcoming episode of the CBS show: politics! TV Line reports that actress Tawny Cypress (who can currently be seen as Cherie Rollins-Murray on the television series Unforgettable) has joined the cast in the guest-starring role of Miranda Crane, a senator who is not too fond of aliens... to put it mildly.
Here's TV Line's breakdown of her debut appearance.
"Senator Crane finds herself on the other side of the issue when her visit to National City is interrupted by an alien attack, forcing her to possibly accept help from an extraterrestrial — Supergirl."
Do you think it's possible Miss Crane's views may change after being saved by Supergirl, ultimately seeing the error of her way and realizing not all aliens are bad? Probably a safe bet. No details on which episode Cypress will first feature in, but we'll keep you posted.
