27? Kinda old to be "Supergirl"

I thought this chick was going to be about 10 years younger and a teenager. Or at least early 20s. She should be playing Superwoman.

DCMarvelRules,

Thank you buddy. Please tell our stereotyping Hollywood actress friend here that SuperWoman is not a fictional existant superheroine character. Supergirl however exists in the comics.

she looks like she's early 20s tho

She pulls off the look ok, which is a waste on a show that got so terrible, but I agree. Supergirl seems more like she'd be 15-16 based on what i know of her, more of a YA type of superhero. I'm not comics expert though so i might be wrong, but that was always the impression I got.
