The CW gave a pilot order to Ava DuVernay’s superhero drama Naomi. The series is based on one of DC Comics’ newer characters.

DuVernay has teamed up with ‘Arrow’ writer and co-executive producer Jill Blankenship on the DC adaptation.

The show follows a teen girl’s journey from her small northwestern town to the heights of the multiverse. When a fight between Superman and Mongul crashes into a small Northwestern town, Naomi goes on a superhero journey. Her journey begins to uncover the last time a super-powered person visited her home. And how that might tie into her own origins and adoption. Fans follow Naomi’s journey on a quest that will take her to the heart of the DC Universe and unfold a universe of ideas and stories that have never been seen before.

Since being introduced into our universe, Naomi has become a favorite of fans. She also has had some entertaining run-ins with Superman and eventually became part of Young Justice. Now she’ll get the solo spotlight in live-action, and it should end up introducing a whole new legion of fans to the character.
