DC’s Stargirl series will end with its current season.
The CW series has officially been canceled by the network. The superhero drama is the latest in a huge wave of cancellations by the network, prompted by its sale to Nexstar.
According to Deadline, the Stargirl team received earlier indication that the series would end with the current season. In other words, fans will hopefully get to see Courtney’s story wrapped up (and not end on a cliffhanger).
Stargirl stars Brec Bassinger as Courtney Whitmore. She leads an unlikely group of young heroes to take on the legacy the Justice Society of America. In season 3, Starman (Joel McHale) returns from the dead and offers to train Courtney, while she helps him adjust to his new life in the quiet town of Blue Valley. But when there’s a murder that needs to be solved, the mystery will not only have our heroes questioning the former super-villains’ commitment to truly reforming, but lead Courtney, her stepfather Pat (Luke Wilson), and Starman to a secret that will shock them all to their very core.
“Getting to play Stargirl and be a part of the DC Universe has been the greatest honor, and I am so grateful for every moment of it. I would like to thank our fearless leader Geoff Johns, along with WBTV, The CW, the cast and crew of Stargirl, and of course, the fans. Thank you. This show will forever live in my heart,” said Bassinger.
Stargirl’s final season is currently airing on The CW. New episodes air on Wednesdays until the series finale December 7.
