Elizabeth Hurley rang in the new year as Supergirl. The British actress who played Morgan le Fay in cosplayed as DC Comics’ Girl of Steel for New Year’s. She completed the look with a blonde wig. Hurley shared some photos on her Instagram page. In the pictures, an unidentified person dressed as Superman accompanies her. “Supergirl vs Superman,” Hurley wrote in the post. “Happy New Year everyone.” Slightly out of place in the costume but still visible in one photo is Hurley’s ankle brace. Though it’s a device that Supergirl is unlikely ever to wear, Hurley must wear it as she recovers from an ankle injury she suffered while filming Christmas in the Caribbean.
