Batman, Constantine & More Rumored For DC CW TV Universe

A batch of rumors surrounding the DC TV universe surfaces which includes mention of Batman, Constantine, Batwoman, Oracle and more.

Now that both The Flash and Superman are appearing in both the movie and TV universes (played by different actors; movies and TV are separate universes), it’s possible WB may have relaxed their rules surrounding the sharing of characters. It’s actually a great route to go as WB can take advantage of their popular characters across all forms of media, than say Marvel, which has one big shared universe (but no mention of the TV characters is ever made in the movies).

Regarding Batman, Bleeding Cool is stating that Fox currently has the TV rights, which is tied up with Gotham, but Fox may share the rights for a fee. 

Constantine with Matt Ryan may get revived as part of the CW’s supernatural Friday as The Vampire Diaries is ending, and The CW may want to go with Constantine to fill the horror gap.

Batwoman is said to be appearing in Supergirl with Kathy/Kate Kane being Maggie Sawyer’s ex, whose adventures as Batwoman occasionally take her to National City.

Oracle Barbara Gordon is also said to be coming to Supergirl (though apparently not as Batgirl) where she befriends Kara, and the Oracle/Batwoman relationship/plot is said to resemble Birds of Prey

The Flash‘s John Wesley Shipp is said to be another cross-series regular, probably as Jay Garrick (similar deal to Wentworth Miller and John Barrowman).

It’s possible some of these announcements may be made this week at Comic-Con.

Kevin Smith Directing The Flash Season 3 Episode 7; Wants Arrow, Supergirl & Legends

Following Kevin Smith’s exellent episode of The Flash Season 2, it’s learned Smith will now be directing episode #7 of Season 3.

Den of Geek caught up with Kevin Smith who confirmed the news as well as stated he is still waiting on a call from Arrow.

“I know I’m going back to The Flash, first week of September, to direct episode 7 of season 3,” Smith said. “Still haven’t heard anything back from Arrow.”

Regarding Arrow, Kevin Smith says he wants to bring in his DC Comics character Onomatopoeia into the series.

“You know, I wish, it would be amazing because I would love to write and direct Onomatopoeia in the show,” Smith said. “Um, but I know they’re doing – what is it? – Wild Dog this year, as well as Vigilante, so maybe they’re just like ‘we don’t need you’, or whatever. But, at the moment, anyone over there raises a flag; I’m like ‘please, let me in!’ That’d be fun as fuck.” 

Smith created Onomatopoeia back in Green Arrow #12. The character targets and kills heroes and has set his sights on the Arrow family in the comics.

Smith notes if he can’t get Arrow, he would like to do DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow or Supergirl.

“…even if they don’t, maybe I could do it on Flash, or Legends Of Tomorrow, or now Supergirl as well. There’s a couple of shows there,” Smith said.

“SUPERGIRL” SEASON ONE TO TAKE OVER THE CW’S MONDAY NIGHTS STARTING AUGUST 1

Two Encore Episodes of “Supergirl” Will Air Each Monday Night

Until The New Season of “Supergirl” Premieres on October 10

 

July 6, 2016 (Burbank, CA) – The CW Network announced today it will broadcast the entire first season of SUPERGIRL on Monday nights starting August 1, with two episodes each week until the new season of SUPERGIRL premieres on October 10 (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT).

SUPERGIRL is an action-adventure drama based on the DC character Kara Zor-El, Superman’s (Kal-El) cousin who, after 12 years of keeping her powers a secret on Earth, decides to finally embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be. Twelve-year-old Kara escaped the doomed planet Krypton with her parents’ help at the same time as the infant Kal-El. Protected and raised on Earth by her foster family, the Danvers, Kara grew up in the shadow of her foster sister, Alex, and learned to conceal the phenomenal powers she shares with her famous cousin in order to keep her identity a secret. Years later at 24, Kara lives in National City assisting media mogul and fierce taskmaster Cat Grant. She works alongside her friend and IT technician Winn Schott and famous photographer James Olsen, who Grant just hired away from the Daily Planet to serve as her new art director. However, Kara’s days of keeping her talents a secret are over when Hank Henshaw, head of a super-secret agency where her sister also works, enlists her to help them protect the citizens of National City from sinister threats. Though Kara will need to find a way to manage her newfound empowerment with her very human relationships, her heart soars as she takes to the skies as Supergirl to fight crime.

Based on characters created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, SUPERGIRL is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“The Flash,” “Arrow”), Ali Adler (“The New Normal,” “Glee”), Andrew Kreisberg (“The Flash,” “Arrow”) and Sarah Schechter (“Arrow,” “The Flash”).

NETFLIX AND THE CW NETWORK ANNOUNCE NEW AGREEMENT

Complete Seasons of All Previous CW Scripted Series, Including ‘Supergirl,’

‘Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,’ ‘Jane the Virgin,’ ‘Arrow’ and ‘The Flash,’

to be Available Exclusively on Netflix

 

BEVERLY HILLS, CALIF. – July 5, 2016 – Netflix, the world’s leading Internet television network, and The CW Network, a joint venture between CBS Corporation and Warner Bros. Entertainment, announced today a new multi-year content licensing relationship that allows Netflix [Nasdaq: NFLX] to remain the exclusive U.S. subscription television service for previous seasons of scripted series broadcast on The CW.

The new relationship spans all current CW series, as well as all future programs produced for the network during the term of the new agreement, which begins with the just-completed 2015-2016 broadcast season. Starting with the 2016-2017 season, Netflix members will be able to stream full seasons for each of these programs beginning eight days after each show’s season finale.

Programming available to Netflix members will include the three new series on The CW’s 2016-2017 primetime schedule: FREQUENCY, NO TOMORROW and RIVERDALE; the hit DC series LEGENDS OF TOMORROW and SUPERGIRL, which will join ARROW and FLASH; and the network’s critically acclaimed JANE THE VIRGIN and CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND, featuring the Golden Globe-winning performances of Gina Rodriguez and Rachel Bloom, respectively. The roster will also continue to include fan favorites such as THE VAMPIRE DIARIES and series THE 100, IZOMBIE, THE ORIGINALS and REIGN.

“Netflix members in the US love the great lineup of series from The CW, and we are thrilled to extend the relationship and bring those shows to our members exclusively now, just eight days after their season finales,” said Ted Sarandos, Chief Content Officer at Netflix. “This is a great step forward with a valued network partner to give fans exactly what they want, when and how they want it.”

“Since the initial landmark deal in 2011, The CW’s programming has enjoyed tremendous success and increased exposure through Netflix, and our new agreement not only continues but enhances this valuable relationship,” said Mark Pedowitz, President, The CW. “The CW has positioned itself for the future by transforming into a true hybrid network, rooted in broadcast while fully embracing the digital and streaming habits of the viewers.”

“We are pleased to extend our valued partnership with Netflix for CW programming with more CBS-produced series, led by award-winning and critically acclaimed ‘Jane the Virgin’ and ‘Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,’”said Scott Koondel, Executive Vice President and Chief Corporate Content Licensing Officer, CBS Corporation. “This multi-year agreement recognizes the value of our content and it validates the marketplace’s confidence in our studio’s long-term ability to produce high-quality content. This unique windowing will further extend the CW brand and fan base throughout the television season while providing better in-season exclusivity for our broadcast affiliates, MVPD partners and potential OTT opportunities. We look forward to continued success with Netflix on this partnership well into the future.”

“For the past several years, the distinctive, high-quality shows we have been producing for The CW have proven their popularity across linear, on demand and digital properties here and around the world,” said Jeffrey Schlesinger, President, Warner Bros. Worldwide Television Distribution. “This new deal will provide consumers enhanced access to compatible programs like ‘Supergirl’ and DC’s ‘Legends of Tomorrow,’ while increasing the value of both in-season rights on The CW and prior seasons on Netflix.”

“Riverdale”: Things aren’t always what you expect in “Riverdale.” Based on the iconic characters from Archie Comics and produced by Berlanti Productions (“The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “Blindspot,” “Everwood”), this one-hour drama is a bold, subversive take on the surreality of small-town life. As a new school year begins, the town of Riverdale is reeling from the recent, tragic death of high school golden boy Jason Blossom — and nothing feels the same. Archie Andrews (KJ Apa) is still the all-American teen, but the summer’s events made him realize that he wants to pursue a career in music — and not follow in his dad’s footsteps — despite the sudden end of his forbidden relationship with Riverdale’s young music teacher, Ms. Grundy (Sarah Habel). Which means Archie doesn’t have anyone who will mentor him — certainly not singer Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray), who is only focused on her band, the soon-to-be-world-famous Pussycats. It’s all weighing heavily on Archie’s mind — as is his fractured friendship with budding writer and fellow classmate Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse). Meanwhile, girl-next-door Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) is anxious to see her crush, Archie, after being away all summer, but she’s not quite ready to reveal her true feelings to him. And Betty’s nerves — which are hardly soothed by her overbearing mother, Alice (Mädchen Amick) — aren’t the only thing holding her back. When a new student, Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes), arrives in town from New York with her mother Hermione (Marisol Nichols), there’s an undeniable spark between she and Archie, even though Veronica doesn’t want to risk her new friendship with Betty by making a play for Archie. And then there’s Cheryl Blossom (Madelaine Petsch) — Riverdale’s Queen Bee is happy to stir up trouble amongst Archie, Betty, and Veronica, but Cheryl is keeping secrets of her own. What, exactly, is she hiding about the mysterious death of her twin brother, Jason? Riverdale may look like a quiet, sleepy town, but there are dangers in the shadows. “Riverdale” is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“Arrow,” “The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” “Blindspot”), Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (“Supergirl,” “Glee”), Sarah Schechter (“Arrow,” “The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” “Blindspot”) and Jon Goldwater (Archie Comics). “Riverdale” premieres midseason on The CW. Become a fan of “Riverdale” on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/CWRiverdale, and follow the show on Twitter at @CW_Riverdale.

“Powerless”: It’s a Super Hero’s world. We just live in it. As the first comedy series set in the DC Universe, “Powerless” is the story of Emily (Vanessa Hudgens – “High School Musical”), a young insurance adjuster specializing in regular-people coverage against damage caused when Super Heroes and Super Villains treat the city like their own personal battleground. Taking care of insurance needs one by one, Emily and her team of co-workers might not have any superpowers, but they are out to make a difference in people’s lives and prove that you don’t need to have powers to be powerful! From Warner Bros. Television and executive producer Ben Queen (“Cars 2”) and based on characters from DC, “Powerless” premieres midseason on NBC. Become a fan of “Powerless” on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/NBCPowerless, and follow the show on Twitter at @NBCPowerless.

“People of Earth”: From Emmy winners Conan O’Brien (“Conan”) and Greg Daniels (“The Office,” “Parks and Recreation”) and creator David Jenkins comes “People of Earth,” a half-hour single-camera comedy series about a support group for alien abductees. “People of Earth” centers on skeptical journalist Ozzie Graham (Wyatt Cenac – “The Daily Show”) who investigates the group to write about its members’ supposed alien encounters. The more he digs into their oddball claims, however, the more he realizes a semblance of truth to their stories and possibly even signs that point to his own alien abduction. The onetime outsider now finds himself a part of this eclectic group of misfits, all the while struggling with the idea of knowing that life could exist beyond our world. The series is executive produced by O’Brien, Daniels, Norm Hiscock (“King of the Hill”), Jeff Ross (“Conan”), David Kissinger (“Eagleheart”) and Larry Sullivan; Jenkins is co-executive producer. Produced by Conaco LLC in association with Warner Horizon Television, “People of Earth” is coming this fall to TBS.

“Frequency”: Based on the New Line feature film, “Frequency” is the story of a father and daughter who are supernaturally reunited two decades after his suspicious and untimely death. New York detective Raimy Sullivan was only seven when her father, undercover cop Frank Sullivan, abandoned his family in pursuit of a case that led not only to his family’s breakup, but also his eventual death undercover. Always believing her dad died in disgrace as a corrupt cop, Raimy set forth to surpass him in law enforcement, rising through the ranks to detective. But everything she knows changes when somehow Raimy and Frank connect — across two decades — over Frank’s vintage ham radio in the garage. Where once Frank was lost in the shadows of his undercover work in 1996, he has now miraculously been found by his now-grown daughter in 2016. As they forge a new relationship while working together in two time periods to close an unsolved serial murder investigation, their emotional connection transcends time to not only repair the broken bonds of their family, but also defy fate and change the course of destiny. From Lin Pictures in association with Warner Bros. Television, “Frequency” premieres Wednesday, October 5 at 9/8c on The CW. Jeremy Carver (“Supernatural”), Toby Emmerich (“Frequency” film), John Rickard (“Horrible Bosses”), Dan Lin (“Sherlock Holmes” films), Jennifer Gwartz (“Veronica Mars”) and Brad Anderson (“Fringe”) are executive producers. Become a fan on Facebook at www.facebook.com/CWFrequency and follow the show on Twitter at @CWFrequency.

“Time After Time”: Using the 1979 novel and movie as a launching point, “Time After Time” chronicles the epic adventures of a young H.G. Wells. At the age of 28, the 19th century scholar has yet to publish any of his landmark science fiction novels, but his idealistic thinking and radical ideas have led him to actually create a time machine. When his longtime friend — the charismatic (and secretly psychopathic) Dr. John Stevenson, aka Jack the Ripper — finds himself cornered by the authorities at Wells’ London home, he escapes to present-day New York City using the time machine. Naturally, Wells follows, but instead of the Utopian society he imagined would be in the future, he finds a world more aligned to Stevenson’s temperament. Fortunately, Wells meets up with Jane Walker, an assistant curator at a museum staging an exhibition on Wells. As Wells and Jane come together, they will not only play a dangerous endgame with Stevenson, but also find themselves involved with the incredible characters and scenarios that inspired Wells’ “War of the Worlds,” “The Invisible Man,” “The Island of Dr. Moreau” and more. An epic love story charged with danger and adventure, “Time After Time” gives an unpredictable spin on the mythology of H.G. Wells by looking at the world of today through the eyes of yesterday. Based on the novel written by Karl Alexander and produced by Outerbanks Entertainment in association with Warner Bros. Television, “Time After Time” premieres midseason on ABC. Kevin Williamson (“The Vampire Diaries”) and Marcos Siega (“The Following”) are executive producers. Become a fan of “Time After Time” on Facebook at facebook.com/TimeAfterTimeABC and follow the show on Twitter at @TimeAfterABC.

“Teen Titans Go!”: The Teen Titans are back at it again, in “Teen Titans Go!,” with all new comedic adventures both in and out of Titans Tower, and we’ll have you covered by screening a brand new episode. Based on characters from DC and produced by Warner Bros. Animation, “Teen Titans Go!” airs Thursdays at 6/5c on Cartoon Network.

“Justice League Action”: The world’s greatest Super Heroes return to television in “Justice League Action,” an all-new quarter-hour animated series. Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman lead the DC Super Heroes against their most infamous foes in adventures packed with relentless thrills, fun and action. Whether defending the Earth, facing invaders from space, or battling the bizarre forces of magic, the always-rotating team of Justice League heroes, are up to any challenge. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and based on characters from DC, “Justice League Action” is coming soon to Cartoon Network.

6:30 p.m.–7:20 p.m. “Riverdale” Pilot Screening and Q&A — Things aren’t always what you expect in “Riverdale.” Based on the iconic characters from Archie Comics and produced by Berlanti Productions (“The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “Blindspot,” “Everwood”), this one-hour drama is a bold, subversive take on the surreality of small-town life. As a new school year begins, the town of Riverdale is reeling from the recent, tragic death of high school golden boy Jason Blossom — and nothing feels the same. Archie Andrews (KJ Apa) is still the all-American teen, but the summer’s events made him realize that he wants to pursue a career in music — and not follow in his dad’s footsteps — despite the sudden end of his forbidden relationship with Riverdale’s young music teacher, Ms. Grundy (Sarah Habel). Which means Archie doesn’t have anyone who will mentor him — certainly not singer Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray), who is only focused on her band, the soon-to-be-world-famous Pussycats. It’s all weighing heavily on Archie’s mind — as is his fractured friendship with budding writer and fellow classmate Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse). Meanwhile, girl-next-door Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) is anxious to see her crush Archie after being away all summer, but she’s not quite ready to reveal her true feelings to him. And Betty’s nerves — which are hardly soothed by her overbearing mother, Alice (Mädchen Amick) — aren’t the only thing holding her back. When a new student, Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes), arrives in town from New York with her mother Hermione (Marisol Nichols), there’s an undeniable spark between she and Archie, even though Veronica doesn’t want to risk her new friendship with Betty by making a play for Archie. And then there’s Cheryl Blossom (Madelaine Petsch)… Riverdale’s Queen Bee is happy to stir up trouble amongst Archie, Betty, and Veronica, but Cheryl is keeping secrets of her own. What, exactly, is she hiding about the mysterious death of her twin brother, Jason? Riverdale may look like a quiet, sleepy town, but there are dangers in the shadows. “Riverdale” makes its Comic-Con debut with a screening of the complete pilot episode, followed by a Q&A with series stars and executive producers. “Riverdale” is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“Arrow,” “The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” “Blindspot”), Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (“Supergirl,” “Glee”), Sarah Schechter (“Arrow,” “The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” “Blindspot”) and Jon Goldwater (Archie Comics). “Riverdale” premieres midseason on The CW.

7:25–8:15 p.m. “Frequency” Pilot Screening and Q&A — Based on the New Line feature film, “Frequency” is the story of a father and daughter who are supernaturally reunited two decades after his suspicious and untimely death. New York detective Raimy Sullivan was only 7 when her father, Frank Sullivan, an undercover cop, abandoned his family in pursuit of a case that led not only to his family’s breakup, but also his eventual death undercover. Always believing her dad died in disgrace as a corrupt cop, Raimy set forth to surpass him in law enforcement, rising through the ranks to detective. But everything she knows changes when somehow Raimy and Frank connect — across two decades — over Frank’s vintage ham radio in the garage. Where once Frank was lost in the shadows of his undercover work in 1996, he has now miraculously been found by his now-grown daughter in 2016. As they forge a new relationship while working together in two time periods to close an unsolved serial murder investigation, their emotional connection transcends time to not only repair the broken bonds of their family, but also defy fate and change the course of destiny. “Frequency” makes its Comic-Con debut with a screening of the complete pilot episode, followed by a Q&A with series stars Peyton List (“The Tomorrow People,” “The Flash”), Riley Smith (“Nashville,” “The Messengers”) and Mekhi Phifer (“Torchwood,” “ER”), along with executive producers Jeremy Carver (“Supernatural,” U.S. version of “Being Human”) and Jennifer Gwartz (“Lethal Weapon,” “Veronica Mars”).

8:20–9:15 p.m. “Time After Time” Pilot Screening and Q&A — Using the 1979 novel and movie as a launching point, “Time After Time” chronicles the epic adventures of a young H.G. Wells. At the age of 28, the 19th century scholar has yet to publish any of his landmark science fiction novels, but his idealistic thinking and radical ideas have led him to actually create a time machine. When his longtime friend — the charismatic (and secretly psychopathic) Dr. John Stevenson, aka Jack the Ripper — finds himself cornered by the authorities at Wells’ London home, he escapes to present-day New York City using the time machine. Naturally, Wells follows, but instead of the Utopian society he imagined would be in the future, he finds a world more aligned to Stevenson’s temperament. Fortunately, Wells meets up with Jane Walker, an assistant curator at a museum staging an exhibition on H.G. Wells, the Father of Science Fiction. As Wells and Jane come together, they will not only play a dangerous endgame with Stevenson, but also find themselves involved with the incredible characters and scenarios that inspired Wells’ “War of the Worlds,” “The Invisible Man,” “The Island of Dr. Moreau” and more. An epic love story charged with danger and adventure, “Time After Time” gives an unpredictable spin on the mythology of H.G. Wells by looking at the world of today through the eyes of yesterday. “Time After Time” makes its Comic-Con debut with a screening of the complete pilot episode, followed by a Q&A with executive producers Kevin Williamson (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Dawson’s Creek,” “The Following,” “Scream” movies) and Marcos Siega (“Blindspot,” “The Following,” “The Vampire Diaries,” “Dexter,” “Cold Case,” “Veronica Mars”) and series stars Freddie Stroma (“Harry Potter” films, “Pitch Perfect,” “Game of Thrones,” “13 Hours,” “UnREAL”) and Genesis Rodriguez (“Identity Thief,” “Man on a Ledge,” “Entourage,” “Big Hero 6”).

Producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg said back in March that they had a role for Lynda Carter on Supergirl, but that her schedule couldn’t sync up, so they had to push it to Season 2.

Lynda Carter will appear as the President in episode three and joins the recent casting news of Tyler Hoechlin as Superman.

Supergirl Season 2 premiers Monday, October 10th at 8pm ET starring Melissa Benoist on The CW.

Tyler Hoechlin Cast As Superman For Supergirl

And we have our new Superman.

THR reports that Teen Wolf‘s Tyler Hoechlin will play Superman and Clark Kent in the second season of Supergirl.

Details include Superman will appear in the first two episodes next season visiting his cousin in National City.

“Greg [Berlanti] and I have wanted to work with Tyler for ages, so this worked out perfectly because Tyler is Superman,” executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said. “We are so thrilled and humbled to add another amazing actor to the legacy of this iconic character.”

A couple of years ago, we were exclusively told Tyler Hoechlin was up to play Batman prior to Ben Affleck landing the role, and now we see he’s landed the Man of Steel gig.

Supergirl returns with Season 2 in the Fall airing Mondays at 8pm ET on The CW.

Supergirl Gets Lex Luthor’s Sisiter & More

In addition to Superman, the second season of Supergirl will also feature Lex Luthor’s sister and more characters.

TV Line reveals Supergirl Season 2 will feature:

• Lena Luthor, who will be in the 25-35 year old range, arrives in town to get out from under the shadow of her infamous brother. She’s described as sexy and smart and determined to get what she wants. 

• Nick Farrow. He’s a “brash leading man” who butts heads with Kara at CatCo. The son of a famous reporter, Nick is “looking to make a name for himself in the news world but the question of whether he can leave behind his former selfish and hedonistic ways will constantly arise. In hanging out with Kara, the hero in Nick might finally come out.” 

• The Doctor, the diabolical female leader of Project Cadmus who uses her surgical skills to implant prisoners with alien technology.

• Snapper Carr, a veteran journalist appointed by Cat to remake the news division by going old school (not to be confused with the Justice League sidekick).

• The comics-inspired Maggie, an out and proud detective for the newly formed Science Police, which deals specifically with metahuman and alien threats.

“Supergirl” Season 2 will air on The CW Mondays at 8pm ET.

Superman To Be Featured In Supergirl Season 2

I guess it works both ways…

With Superman dead in the DCEU, the Man of Steel will be introduced in Supergirl Season 2.

We’ve already seen glimpses of Superman in Supergirl, but it’s always been a blurred and real short appearance. Now THR reports The CW is currently casting a Superman different than Henry Cavill who will first appear in the first two episodes of Supergirl.

It’s further said Superman will first be seen visiting his cousin Kara (Melissa Benoist) in National City at the beginning of the series’ second season. 

“Greg [Berlanti], Ali [Adler] and I are beyond thrilled to welcome Clark Kent and his slightly-more-famous alter ego to the world of Supergirl,” executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said. “Superman will be appearing in the first two episodes of the new season and we cannot wait to see who next dons the red cape!”

I’m actually surprised WB is going ahead with this decision following the controversial casting of Ezra Miller as the DCEU Flash, as there has been lots of not only negative fan sentiments, but negative reaction from The CW actors as well. Don’t get me wrong, not that I think this is a bad thing at all. If anything, I am guessing Berlanti and Kreisberg’s version of Superman will come off a lot better than what Zack Snyder did with Superman in Man of Steel and Batman Vs. Superman. I’m also guessing The CW version of Superman will be a lot closer to the Christopher Reeve version, which all the fans know and love. Should be good. Glad they can at least get Superman right on TV.

Born on the doomed planet Krypton, Kara Zor-El escaped at the same time as her cousin, Superman, but didn’t arrive on Earth until years later after being lost in the Phantom Zone. Raised by her adopted family, the Danvers, Kara grew up in the shadow of her foster sister, Alex, and learned to hide the phenomenal powers she shares with her famous cousin. Years later, at age 24, and now living in National City while working as an assistant for Catco Worldwide Media mogul Cat Grant, Kara has spent so many years trying to fit in that she forgot to ever stand out. All that changes when she decides to embrace her superhuman abilities and become the hero she was always destined to be. With the help of Daily Planet photographer James Olsen, her bioengineer sister Alex, and the research of the super-secret, off-the-grid Department of Extra-Normal Operations (DEO), who are tasked with keeping the Earth safe from aliens, Kara takes to the skies to protect her world. (TBC)

No Alan Scott Green Lantern For DC TV Universe

It’s learned – again – that Green Lantern won’t be appearing any time in the DC TV Universe.

Prior to Thursday’s episode of DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow, it was thought that possibly the surprise character reveal at the end was Alan Scott Green Lantern; however, EP Marc Guggenheim shot that down and notes the character is attached to the films.

“I’ll tell you right now, because I never want anyone to be disappointed, he’s not Alan Scott,” Guggenheim told CBR. “I love Alan Scott. I’ve written Alan Scott in the comics. Alan Scott is also attached to the Green Lantern franchise, which DC obviously has feature plans for. In the poll of ‘who it’s going to be,’ you can cross off Alan Scott.”

It’s been speculated Green Lantern has been wanted for DC TV due to the many Easter Eggs found in the various series, with one even going so far to describe a certain pilot. I do think this season has seen the Green Lantern Easter Eggs subside, obviously due to the Green Lantern Corps and Justice League movies. We already know WB put the kibosh on using Suicide Squad for Arrow, Blue Beetle, and it’s probably a safe bet that Black Canary was killed off to make way for the character to appear in the DCEU. More than likely, WB doesn’t want another controversy similar to Grant Gustin and Ezra Miller as The Flash, so no characters will be shared.

Supergirl Moves To CW For Season 2

Good news for fans of Supergirl as Season 2 is green lit and will now air on The CW.

Supergirl will also see its production moved fom Los Angeles to Vancouver, which is also the home of Greg Berlanti’s other DC series, Arrow, The Flash and DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow.

The news comes after much speculation that Supergirl would move to The CW as CBS wasn’t sure if they were going to renew the series citing high licensing and production costs.

The talks with CBS actually helped out The CW as reportedly WB was already making changes to make Supergirl less costly, with the aforementioned move to Vancouver amongst them.

The Flash Grant Gustin recently crossed over to Supergirl, which saw a big spike in ratings. Supergirl and Melissa Benoist should be right at home on The CW, and with the move to Vancouver, more than likely we’ll see additional crossovers in the future as well.

Supergirl Season 2 Up In The Air

The future of Supergirl is currently up in the air, with the decision regarding a Season 2 coming within the next couple of weeks.

CBS seems to be hesitant to go with another season of Supergirl due to ratings as well as the high cost of developing the series.

It’s not all bad news as Deadline reports other networks are interested in Supergirl, with The CW named as a possibility. 

Hulu is also suggested as Supergirl may make a nice addition to combat Netflix’s Marvel series.

Regarding the high cost of Supergirl, said to be $3 million an episode, Season 1 was filmed in Los Angeles, and CBS also has to pay Warner Bros. a high licensing fee. It’s possible Supergirl may move to Vancouver to film, and that CBS and WB may be able to renegotiate a lower licensing fee, which will reduce costs for CBS.

Supergirl executive producer Greg Berlanti’s CW shows film in Vancouver with Arrow, Flash, and DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow.

The ratings for Supergirl are not that bad, but have dropped from a high of 10 million viewers for its premiere to about half of that over the season.

Supergirl‘s ratings did jump 31% with The Flash crossover, so the potential is still there for high ratings, which CBS certainly has taken notice of.
