DC Universe’s ‘Stargirl’: First Look At S.T.R.I.P.E. Revealed

In addition to the teaser released earlier this week, you can finally get a decent look at S.T.R.I.P.E. in DC Universe’s Stargirl.

The following image comes courtesy of the Stargirl Facebook Group, the same source that revealed a number of the character debuting on the upcoming series. If you’re not familiar, S.T.R.I.P.E. is the robotic armor that Courtney Whitmore’s stepfather Pat Dugan wears as a superhero.

It was heavily rumored that the production built a real-life version of the suit upwards of 20-feet tall. The picture reveals the leg portion of the armor next to a ladder in order to compare height. CGI will be used to produce a moving version when Dugan is commanding the suit alongside Stargirl.

Luke Wilson plays Dugan, the former longtime sidekick Stripesy to Joel McHale’s Sylvester Pemberton, the adult Star-Spangled Kid (Starman). Dugan will ditch the striped threads in his adult life for some robot armor under the name S.T.R.I.P.E., which will indeed be practical in the upcoming series.
