Superman’s Hawkgirl doesn’t get any backstory, so it’s unclear whether this version is reincarnated, an alien from the planet Thanagar or something else entirely.
Minor Superman spoilers
Promotional material names her as “Kendra Saunders” who is historically not an alien.
Additionally a handful of scenes in Superman point out that Superman is an alien. I think if Hawkgirl were an alien someone would have mentioned it.

So it’s probably a reincarnation storyline.
