'Supergirl' Is Basically 'The Devil Wears Prada'

By this point, I’m almost certain you have heard all the talk about a possible The Devil Wears Prada musical. If you’re anything like me, you're probably considerably excited about the prospect of it — because seriously, let’s be honest, who wouldn't be pumped for a musical centered around a true, modern day villain, fashion, and a scrappy, know-it-all protagonist. However, while that news isn't confirmed, at least we have this to tide us over until then: Turns out, The Devil Wears Prada was getting a whole 'nother reboot we didn't even know about this whole time: CBS’s Supergirl trailer was just released and it looks awfully… well, basically like The Devil Wears Prada, part two.

I know what you’re thinking: I’m totally delusional and need to take a good long look at my choices in life. Honestly, you’re probably right, but, I am serious when I make this seemingly insane comparison between Supergirl the show and The Devil Wears Pradathe movie. I can see you now, rolling your eyes at your laptop and/or tablet screen and going, “In what way could a superhero show and a movie about a fashion magazine possibly resemble one another?”

My answer to you, dear friend — perfectly crafted after watching the Supergirl trailer in its entirety and digesting The Devil Wears Prada a few dozen times, it should be noted — is this: IN. EVERY. WAY.

If you still won’t take my word for it, good news: I have some undeniable proof/truth bombs for you.

But first, Supergirl's trailer:

This SWEATER

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

I bet she, too, got it "from some tragic Casual Corner, and fished it out of a clearance bin."

The Coffee Tray Juggle

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

Amidst a slew of other clumsily-executed errands.

The Swanky Office Atmosphere

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

~Big city, big dreams~

The Insufferable, Yet Undeniably Chic, Villain

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

(Of course, they're all just overzealous Anna Wintour wannabes.)

No, Really

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

They also all really love having their own elevators, and making the main character's life miserable!

The Quirky, Uncomfortable Awkwardness

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

Clumsiness, shoulder-shrugging, tripping... they've got it all!

The transformation

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

It's like they just blossomed right out of their sad little sweater cocoons, and turned into beautiful designer and/or spandex clad butterflies... with a little coaxing. Tale as old as time.

The Disapproving Member Of The Inner Circle

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

Whether it's Andi's boyfriend or Kara's sister, these peeps are intent on foiling our main characters' epic destiny (but out of a place of love, of course). And honestly, they're probably justified in doing so — especially Kara's sister, because I think saving the world may be a tad more dangerous than working in publishing.

The Impossible Achievements

Supergirl:

The Devil Wears Prada:

Stopping an imminent plane crash, getting the newest Harry Potter manuscript before it's published... both superpowers.
