Screenshots and videos of the feature quickly began circulating on social media, with fans sharing their reactions to the surprise addition. The Easter egg appears to be available on both desktop and mobile versions of Google Search, although availability may vary depending on region and rollout timing.

The special feature continues Google's long-running tradition of celebrating major pop-culture moments through interactive search experiences. Over the years, the tech giant has released similar Easter eggs for blockbuster films, comic-book characters and major entertainment events, giving fans a unique way to engage with their favourite franchises.

The launch coincides with the release of Supergirl, which stars Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El. Directed by Craig Gillespie, the film is inspired by the acclaimed Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic series and introduces a darker, more emotionally complex version of the beloved DC hero.

Fans eager to try the feature for themselves can simply search “Supergirl” on Google and look for the interactive icon that activates the animation, offering a fun way to celebrate the heroine’s return to the big screen.
