[awvdtpmv] Female Superman

In a live action adaptation, e.g., movie, let an actress play an alien character previously depicted as male (or vice versa) in other media.  The idea is there is no logical reason for aliens to resemble human gender presentation.

This is not, say, Supergirl as a completely separate character from Superman, but the consistent Superman character with the same back story and mythology who simply looks different in live action compared to in a comic book.

I suspect for some, perhaps many, alien superhero characters, the audience will not find this too jarring because the character is defined by their abilities and not their gender presentation.

Inspired by Peter Pan typically played by a woman, and similarly Link played by a woman in freddiew's Zelda Pot Smasher.
