Supergirl Set Visit Reveals Debate Over DCU’s First PG-13 F-Bomb

Overview

• A Friday set-visit report quoted DC Studios’ executive vice president saying filmmakers are actively debating where to place the single F-word allowed under MPAA rules and asking, “Is this her f**k?”
• The film retains a PG-13 rating, and the MPAA generally permits one use of the F-word in that category which studios often avoid but may use to signal edgier content.
• Insiders remain divided over whether Milly Alcock’s Kara or Jason Momoa’s Lobo will deliver the line, with some sources saying options remain and others pointing to Kara as the likely candidate.
• Supergirl’s director Craig Gillespie has steered the film toward a darker, more rebellious take on Kara, and the language debate complements an intensified marketing push that includes final trailers, exhibitor materials, and advance ticket sales.
• By echoing recent PG-13 precedents such as Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, the choice could shift audience expectations for DC’s theatrical slate and affect how Warner Bros. markets the film ahead of its June 26, 2026 release.
