“#Eliza Helm on How She Sank Her Claws Into Cat Grant<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Supergirl<\/em> ties up its two-part trip<\/a> back in time on May 4, with Nia (Nicole Maines) and Brainy (Jesse Rath) trying to help teen Kara (Izabela Vidovic) battle a pair of aliens ahead of Midvale High\u2019s prom. To complicate matters\u2014given that the duo\u2019s original mission was solely to visit the past in search of something that could free adult Kara (Melissa Benoist) from the Phantom Zone\u2014is the increased meddling of Cat \u201cCJ\u201d Grant (Eliza Helm), the nosey journalist who will eventually become the media<\/a> mogul originally played by Calista Flockhart.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I watched everything that was out there,\u201d laughs Helm of channeling Flockhart\u2019s former series<\/a> regular. \u201cI mean, you\u2019re given this amazing performance, you have to study it, right?\u201d Admitting to taking deep dives into Flockhart\u2019s work during her two-week quarantine before filming\u2014including early Ally McBeal<\/em> episodes\u2014the L.A.-based graduate of Chicago\u2019s Second City then got to putting it all together for her take on the up-and-coming Cat.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Calista\u2019s] performance is so wonderful and iconic, so how lucky am I to have that to study and to work off of? I really did study her mannerisms and her cadence and then just sort of thought \u2018How do I adapt that for a younger CJ Grant?\u2019 Like, what would she be like then<\/em> if her circumstances were different, but she\u2019s still that same person?\u201d<\/p>\n

The end result is equal parts uncanny similarity, affectionate homage to the character that came before and absolute hoot. As we first learned in last week\u2019s \u201cProm Night!\u201d episode, gossip columnist CJ is bored with her Daily Planet<\/em> beat, but sure that she can land a killer story after spotting what she believes are the aliens targeting Midvale\u2019s Kryptonian. Along the way, she intersects with our heroes and learns a bit more about herself and what awaits her in the future. And while she is still a far cry from the boss Kara had to deal with in Season 1, tonight\u2019s hour (fittingly titled \u201cProm Again!\u201d) is at its hilarious best whenever Helm\u2019s Cat gets the chance to toss out shade like a seasoned pro and play around with the cast.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was so wonderful,\u201d notes the improv master. \u201cThey know each other so well and have been with each other for so long, that it\u2019s a really safe space to sort of experiment and push the boundaries.\u201d And even though this is probably the last time we\u2019ll get Helm on Supergirl<\/em>, showrunner Jessica Queller\u2019s recent comments to The Wrap<\/a> have her ready for more visits to Midvale. \u201cI know there\u2019s been whispers of a spin-off,\u201d she says. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to say no to that!\u201d<\/p>\n

As if Cat would even let her.<\/p>\n
