Green Lantern Character Joins Arrow Season 5

There has been hints and teases of Green Lantern in the CW DC TV universe for a while now.

We’ve seen various Coast City Easter Eggs in Arrow and The Flash, and even Stephen Amell has teased Green Lantern.

Now a Green Lantern-related character has been cast for Arrow Season 5.

TV Line reports Carly Pope (The Tomorrow People) will play the recurring role of Susan Williams, a journalist from nearby Coast City who comes to Star City “looking to make a name for herself” by targeting Oliver Queen for a big story.

In the DC comics, Susan Williams is married to Jim Jordan, the younger brother of Green Lantern Hal Jordan.

Hopefully this means more Green Lantern to come.

Now whether that actually happens seems to be currently up in the air as it’s been said Green Lantern has been ruled out of TV because of the upcoming Green Lantern Corps movie; however, that isn’t for a few years off, and now Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) will be in the CW DC universe, which may be a sign that WB’s policies are changing (Suicide Squad characters axed in Arrow because of movie, etc).

“Arrow” Season 5 premiers Wednesday, October 5th.

It’s when she stands up to one of these larger-than-life figures (after an epic battle messes with her commute) that she accidentally becomes a cult “hero” in her own right … even if it’s just to her group of lovably quirky co-workers. Now, while she navigates her normal, everyday life against an explosive backdrop, Emily might just discover that being a hero doesn’t always require superpowers.

Special Sneak Peek Pilot Screenings

Wednesday, July 20

6:00–10:00 p.m. Comic-Con and Warner Bros. Television proudly continue our annual Preview Night tradition, with exclusive world premiere screenings of the pilot episodes of five of the most highly anticipated series of the 2016–17 television season — “Riverdale,” “Powerless,” “People of Earth,” “Frequency” and “Time After Time” — as well as a brand new episode of “Teen Titans Go!” and the debut of “Justice League Action.” Ballroom 20

“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.

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”). From Lin Pictures in association with Warner Bros. Television, “Frequency” premieres Wednesday, October 5, at 9/8c on The CW. Become a fan on Facebook at www.facebook.com/CWFrequency and follow the show on Twitter at @CWFrequency. Room 6BCF

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”). 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.

Young Justice Season 3 Possibility Is Very Real Says Greg Weisman

The past year or so has seen a lot of renewed interest in a Young Justice Season 3.

Last August saw “#renewyoungjustice” trend worldwide on Twitter.

Some of the actors involved even hinted the series could come back especially through Netflix, which carries the first two Young Justice seasons.

Now series creator Greg Weisman says the “possibility is very real” for Young Justice Season 3.

The Christopher Niosi YouTube channel caught up with Weisman who offered in order to get a Young Justice Season 3, fans can:

1. Watch Young Justice Season 1 and 2 on Netflix (as many times as possible).

2. Buy NEW copies of the DVDs and/or digital copies through Amazon and iTunes (WB doesn’t get any revenue from old/used copies).

3. Purchase the Young Justice digital comics through Comixology to show WB there is interest.

“This is not me blowing smoke,” Weisman offered. “I truly believe it is possible. I want to be clear, I got no guarantee. I don’t even work at Warner Bros. anymore. I work at Nickelodeon. But I’ve had a couple conversations with the folks at Warner Bros., and even a conversation with some folks at Netflix, and I have a basic understanding of how this works. So what I’m offering isn’t a guarantee, it’s a viable strategy. It’s something that is real, that can help us get a third season of the show.”

Weisman then went on to explain why Young Justice was cancelled.

“The thing to keep in mind was why the show was cancelled in the first place,” Weisman said. “And it’s a very simple equation. I’ve seen all sorts of rumors and stuff on the internet. I debunk the same damn rumors over and over, but the actual truth is very straightforward. I’m sure there are other little complications involved, but they’re minor compared to the big thing, which was the budget for the show was paid for by money we received by Mattel in exchange for the toy license. When the toy line for Young Justice failed, and you could have a whole eight hour discussion on why it failed, that’s so beside the point that it doesn’t matter. The toy line failed. The money from Mattel stopped coming in. There was no money to make the show. It’s that simple.”

Weisman continues with mention how they can bring Young Justice back (see three ways above).

“Why that is important, it’s not some conspiracy or that it has the wrong audience, it’s not any of those things. The reason why it’s important to know why it was cancelled is because that’s the key to figure out how to bring it back. What can we do to pay for the show in a different way? The answer to that is you want to demonstrate, specifically to Warner Bros., also to a number of companies that sort of hover around, or divisions that hover around Warner Bros. animation, that there are alternative ways to pay for the show. So first and foremost, what I’m asking people to do is [use the hashtag] #KeepBingingYJ. That first hashtag is mostly about Netflix.

Weisman then goes on to note that hype for Young Justice needs to stay big and be consistent, not just trend one day on Valentine’s Day, and notes it is working.

“Those are the three real ways that we can affect things, and what I will say is that it seems to have had an affect, I don’t have any inside information, but it’s clear that Warner Bros. and Netflix are at least having a conversation. I don’t know if we’re close. I don’t know if we are far away, but the fact they are talking at all, that’s promising. So it’s working, but again, it’s a long haul. It’s a marathon, not a sprint.”

Agents Of SHIELD Teases Hellfire For Comic-Con; Maybe Ghost Rider

More than likely the teaser is for Hellfire, and honestly I would much rather have Ghost Rider in the MCU than on TV, but Agents of SHIELD has teased a flaming chain for Comic-Con.

The SHIELD Twitter account released a pic of a San Diego train adorned with SHIELD art with a flaming chain.

Hellfire has already appeared in the series using said chain and was involved in the Marvel Comics Secret Warriors comic book storyline.

It’s possible Hellfire could have a larger role for Agents Of SHIELD season 4.

There has been lots of talk surrounding Ghost Rider as of late because the rights to the character are back with Marvel. Norman Reedus said a big “f’ yeah” to playing the character, and even X-Men’s Shawn Ashmore said he would like to play the Spirit of Vengeance.

We’ll find out more next month when Comic-Con takes place July 20-24.

The Flash Season 3 Flashpoint Could Affect Arrow; Also Cool Fan Art

The Flash Season 3 kicks off with a bang this October with “Flashpoint,” which is the title of the first episode.

The Season 2 finale saw Barry travel back in to to save his mother from being killed by the Reverse Flash.

Fans of the Flasphpoint DC Comics storyline know when Barry saved his mom in the comics, it caused all sorts of changes to the timeline.

We don’t know how much of the CW DC TV universe will be affected, but recently Stephen Amell said it could affect Arrow.

“That’s sick, that’s really cool,” Amell said about the Flashpoint title for the first episode of The Flash while on Facebook live.

Amell then offered the timeline changes could affect Arrow Season 5 down the line.

“Don’t know. Certainly could,” Amell hinted.

Tom Cavanagh also may have teased that his character becomes Zoom.

Grant Gustin also previously stated their Flashpoint story will be different than the comics: “We’re definitely doing this [Flashpoint] thing our own way. I’ve read Flashpoint, I’ve seen the amazing animated film. This will be its own thing.” 

Check out a cool piece of Flashpoint fan art above as well, from Boss Logic.

“The Flash” Season 3 premiers Tuesday, October 4th at 8pm ET on the CW.

Katie Cassidy Teases Video Game; Black Canary Teased For Arrow Season 5

Though Black Canary was killed off last season, we may see the character in Arrow Season 5 in some form.

Marc Guggenheim took to Twitter to post an image of a Black Canary statue noting that it’s production art for the season.

It’s possible the statue could simply be a tribute, but maybe it’s teasing the return of Katie Cassidy.

It’s speculated the reason Black Canary was killed off in Arrow is because the character will appear in the movies. So how about changing the character’s name?

Well, that’s what happened during Season 2 of The Flash. The Earth-2 version of Black Canary appeared played by Katie Cassidy with Black Siren.

Maybe we’ll see Black Siren for Arrow Season 5?

Katie Cassidy also took to her Instagram account again to tease involvement with a video game.

“Burning eyes,” Cassidy added to the post. 

It’s unknown if the game is Injustice 2 or something entirely different. Cassidy posted about it a few weeks ago as well.

SyFy Krypton Casting Call Made Known

SyFy has green lit David Goyer’s Man of Steel prequel Krypton TV series, and now a casting call with character descriptions is made known.

TV Line has details for the following:

SEG-EL | Envisioned here as athletic, quietly confident and in his 20s, comic fans are familiar with an older (and a bit grumpier) Seg from his appearance in the classic Starman No. 51, written by James Robinson with story by Robinson and David S. Goyer, who is executive producer/writer of Krypton. But Seg’s a good guy at any age; in the comics, he and son Jor-El (Kal-El/Superman’s father) helped Starman get away while other Kryptonians wanted to detain – and dissect – the Earthling.

LYTA ZOD | This twentysomething beauty will likely have some familial tie to Superman’s future foe, General Zod, while she herself is a (reluctant) warrior.

VAL-EL | Seg’s genius grandpa defied death by going into the Phantom Zone, and is a staunch believer in space exploration. (We know that’s a lesson he’ll pass along to his great-grandson.)

Other characters include:

ALURA ZOD | Lyta’s mom happens to bear the same name as Kara Zor-El’s mother on Supergirl, while “Zod” always raises an eyebrow because of that whole “kneel before” thing.

DEV-EM | If anyone is going to survive Krypton’s inevitable fate, it’ll be this chiseled, twentysomething bad boy. In the comics, Dev escapes the doomed planet, abuses Superboy on Earth and eventually becomes an ally of the Legion of Super-Heroes… in the 30th century.

TER-EL | AKA Seg’s father. We didn’t get him to play Supergirl’s Man of Steel, but maybe Tom Welling (Smallville) could play Clark’s great-grandfather on Krypton?

About:

Krypton, the much-anticipated Superman prequel set two generations before the destruction of the legendary Man of Steel’s home planet. Krypton will follow Superman’s grandfather — whose House of El was ostracized and shamed — as he fights to redeem his family’s honor and save his beloved world from chaos.

Grant Gustin Confirms Flashpoint For The Flash Season 3

The Season 2 finale for The Flash saw a page come to life straight out of the comic books, and now Grant Gustin teases Flashpoint.

Gustin took to Twitter to reveal the title of the first episode of Season 3, which is “Flashpoint.”

“Just finished reading episode 3-01 titled JK NOT GONNA TELL YOU YET! I’m SO excited to get back to work in 2 weeks,” Gustin tweeted.

Showrunner Greg Berlanti then responded with: “I’m cool with you telling them the title.”

Gustin followed that up by tweeting: “FLASHPOINT. This is not a drill.”

Update: Gustin also tweeted out Flashpoint for their series will be its own thing:

“We’re definitely doing this FP thing our own way.. I’ve read Flashpoint, I’ve seen the amazing animated film. This will be its own thing.”

Walking Dead Season 7 Rumored To Have Filmed 11 Death Scenes

Following the disaster that was The Walking Dead Season 6 finale cliff hanger, now it’s being said that the show’s creators have filmed eleven character death scenes so as to avoid any leaks.

THR reports on this rumor, which honestly sounds like a bunch of spin (BS), but it’s said: “11 cast members involved in the scene have already filmed a death scene. The Walking Dead producers and the episode director will then work with the show’s editors and pick the character who does indeed die.”

This follows the news that both Steven Yeun and Norman Reedus have already been spotted on The Walking Dead Season 7 set when they assisted with a nearby accident — which means they obviously don’t die.

A major issue everybody had with the way the Season 6 finale went down – in addition to getting shortchanged with who Negan killed – is that news of who would be killed would become known prior to Season 7 when filming commenced.

Now it seems as if TWD producers are trying to cover as fans are super ticked off.

The Walking Dead Season 7 will pick up immediately where Season 6 left off. Want to place your bets the spoilers are kept secret? I wouldn’t take that bet, either. 

Can you tell that Season 6 finale still makes our blood boil?
