New Seasons Confirmed For The CW’s Comic Book Shows

New Seasons Confirmed For The CW’s Comic Book Shows

, , , , , , , , , 0

A week ago we reported that the producers of Legends of Tomorrow wanted to put Constantine in every episode next season, but that depended on there being a next season. In fact, none of the network’s shows had gotten word of a fall renewal yet and it was already April. Typical for any other network, but unusual for The CW. Maybe the envelope got lost in the mail, but it’s been found now. The CW confirmed today its entire superhero lineup — Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, Supergirl and NEW Black Lightning — has been renewed for the 2018-2019 season. That’s at least 22 (in some cases 18) more episodes of Kara’s sunny personality, Cisco’s kitschy T-shirts, and the sheer concentrated candy rush that is Legends. Oh yeah, and dull mopey angst from Oliver Queen and company, but you can’t win ’em all. Other renewals announced today: the campy and trashy Riverdale will be back once again, as well as Jane the Virgin (the producers say its fifth season

Arrow Synopsis Teases Arsenal’s Return

Arrow’s Season 06 has been about dealing with a group of villains united against Oliver Queen, however, a key part of that storyline has now ended, and it’s leaving many to wonder what’s next. Well, one thing that will happen is the return of several key members of the team, including Roy Harper, aka Arsenal. Arsenal was a key part of Team Arrow for three seasons, but Roy took a bullet so to speak so that Ollie could continue his crusade, and he’s been on the run ever since. And now, we have the synopsis for the episode that marks his return. “ARROW “Doppelganger” — (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV) ROY HARPER RETURNS — Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Thea (Willa Holland) are shocked to hear that Roy Harper (guest star Colton Haynes) is back in Star City. However, when they discover the circumstances of Roy’s return, Oliver and Thea realize that Roy is in trouble and jump in to save him. Black Siren (Katie Cassidy) makes a shocking decision.

Legion Of Doom “Sitcom” Posed To CW Heads

Legion Of Doom “Sitcom” Posed To CW Heads

When Legends Of Tomorrow was brought into the Arrowverse on the CW, it was a very bold move. For unlike Arrow and Flash before it, this was not a team set in the lore of DC Comics. The team was all DC Comics characters to be sure, but no team called the “Legends Of Tomorrow” had ever existed in the universe. Thus, it was breaking ground. However, the first season was very inconsistent. Yet, it kept going, and with Season 02 they found their niche, and it helped that they had the Legion of Doom as the villains. This iteration of the Legion of Doom was Reverse Flash (the original Eobard Thawne), Malcolm Merlyn, Damien Darhk, and Captain Cold. Fans loved the characters separately, and bringing them together made them even more fun. And this apparently also spoke to the fun the actors were having as them. For Reverse Flash himself, Matt Letscher, revealed that each of them pitched to the CW an idea of a sitcom starring the legion.

Guy-Roger Duvert, Director of 2047 Virtual Revolution Interview

Guy-Roger Duvert has delivered an award-winning sci-fi experience with his film 2047 Virtual Revolution. In my recent review I found Duvert’s take on the morality of virtual gaming to be quite unique, while at the same time evoking the look and feel of the Blade Runner universe in an expertly executed homage. I decided to pick the brain of this talented French composer, writer and director for more on how his vision came to be. Hoju Koolander: Who are the most influential filmmakers in your life that inspired you to enter the world of cinema? Which of their films captured your imagination? Guy-Roger Duvert: Ridley Scott is probably the first director who had such an impact on me. Blade Runner is a cult film for me, and he is a genius in terms of directing and for his choices of music. I entered the world of cinema as a film music composer first, not as a director, and while I was listening to many soundtracks before that, Gladiator is the

While some might consider 2047 Virtual Revolution to be nothing more than a stylish homage to Blade Runner, it is Guy-Roger Duvert’s laser focused vision that manages to guide the film into a genuine futuristic adventure with its own voice. Let get right to it, I really enjoyed 2047 Virtual Revolution. I’ll also admit that Blade Runner 2049 was one of my favorite films of 2017, despite its lackluster box office performance and theatrical run time. While some might consider 2047 Virtual Revolution to be nothing more than a stylish homage to Ridley Scott’s original Blade Runner, it is Writer/Composer/Director Guy-Roger Duvert’s laser focused vision that manages to guide the film into a genuine futuristic adventure with its own voice. This award winning feature is coming to DVD in the US on January 16 and here’s why you should give this movie a shot. As the old saying goes: if you’re going to steal, steal from the best. Well the production design for 2047 Virtual Revolution is taken whole hog

Gotham Star Teases Arrowverse Crossover Suggestion

Gotham Star Teases Arrowverse Crossover Suggestion

The CW seems to have the DC Comics universe on lock. It has Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, The Legends of Tomorrow, Vixen and Constantine (via CWSeed animated series), and in less than a month, Black Lightning will arrive. The only current DC Comics show that isn’t tied to the CW or the Arrowverse is Gotham, which is the “prequel” series for Batman and his allies/Rogues gallery. Yet, that isn’t stopping star David Mazouz from pitching an idea for a crossover: “The Flash kind of had their run-in with Flashpoint a couple of seasons ago. Maybe there could be another kind of Flashpoint where Flash runs back in time and goes to Gotham and maybe tries to stop Bruce Wayne’s parents’ murder from happening,” Mazouz posited to ComicBook.com. “Maybe not the traditional ‘Bruce Wayne gets murdered instead and Thomas becomes Batman thing,’ but something along those lines where the whole world gets whack and it’s up to Flash to fix things in Gotham.” Now, while this would be odd, as Barry doesn’t know

In just a few days, we’ll get the next major DCTV crossover via “Crisis On Earth-X”, which will see the stars of Arrow, Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Supergirl teaming up to fight their evil doppelgangers from the titular Earth-X. Who…all happen to be Nazis. Spoilers! Anywho, the crossovers have been known to be deep, and somewhat dark, but as Flash star Grant Gustin notes to the press at a set visit, the crossover will have comedy. “It was bigger than ever. We knew it was going to be bigger than ever too. But every year, you can’t really prepare yourself,” he shared. “You think you’re preparing yourself, knowing that the crossover is coming but it’s a big thing. It’s a really challenging feat. But I think this year, every year we top it. Again, we top it. There’s more people than ever included, some of the biggest sequences you’ll see with the most superheroes we’ve ever seen together at any given time. But we stick also, at least The Flash side

Over the past few weeks, many high-profile people have been outed for harassment of female co-workers, among others. This has rocked Hollywood to its core, and it’s gone through movies and TV shows alike. Sadly, the Arrowverse was not exempt from this, and showrunner of Flash and Supergirl Andrew Kreisberg has been accused of such allegations, and as such has been suspended from the shows while an investigation is going on. For those wondering how the stars of the various shows are reacting to this, some have made statements. Including Stephen Amell of Arrow. In a Facebook video, he put his full support behind his female co-workers, as well as anyone who works on the various CW/DCTV shows. As it’s them who are the victims here. “If anyone ever feels anything less than 100 percent safe, or anyone feels as though they aren’t allowed to express themselves and be the person that they are, that they should come to whomever they’re supposed to go to, and I’ll stand right beside them,

Stephen Amell Proposed Bruce Wayne Name Drop On Arrow

Stephen Amell Proposed Bruce Wayne Name Drop On Arrow

So, in a recent episode, the DC Comics/CW show Arrow did a major name drop of a character: Bruce Wayne. The Arrowverse as its called has stated that more or less the Arrow was the first “superhero” in the modern world (the JSA was revealed to be a real thing in the 40’s, but that was the past, not the present), and thus, heroes like Batman didn’t exist. Yet, Bruce Wayne is now confirmed to be in the world. Ironically though, the writers didn’t put in Bruce Wayne for the name drop. Star Stephen Amell did. “The original version of that script, which came out right before Comic-Con, it was just Oliver referencing a famous name,” he revealed to Comic Book Resources. “I can’t remember what the placeholder was. I think it might have been Justin Bieber. I looked at it, and I thought to myself, ‘This is a cool opportunity.’ I talked with Greg Berlanti about it, and Greg said, ‘You know, I think that it would behoove you to

At the end of last nights episode of Arrow, John Diggle, who has been going by the name Spartan in the shows team, was asked by Oliver Queen to become the new, permanent Green Arrow. While this would make sense any other season, it’s not so simple with Season 06. For the fallout of Prometheus’ destruction of Lian Yu left Diggle injured, like SERIOUSLY injured. And he was about to tell Oliver of this injury when he was asked to do it. Yet he accepted anyway. This is also a problem because Dinah Drake, who is Black Canary on Team Arrow, knows about the injury, and has been pushing him to reveal it to Oliver. So, how will she react when she finds out about the deal? Well, actress Juliana Harkavy talked about it with Comic Book Resources, and said: “Well, I think she’s going to do her best to honor Diggle’s privacy, but also, it’s very concerning to her, because it could put the team at risk if he’s compromised.

Kevin Smith To “Never” Direct Arrow?

Kevin Smith To “Never” Direct Arrow?

, , 0

So, one of the beauties of the Arrowverse is that it not only gets some high-profile actors and actresses to join in the fun sometimes, but also, they get some big name directors to come in and do some episodes as well. One of the biggest ones so far is Kevin Smith, who has done multiple episodes of both Supergirl and The Flash. Now, that would mean that he hasn’t done Legends of Tomorrow or Arrow, yet. Apparently, he is interested, but also apparently, a certain showrunner doesn’t feel Smith’s talents adhere to Arrow’s tone. For according to Smith himself in an interview with Screenrant, Arrow showrunner Marc Guggenheim basically said that he thinks Legends of Tomorrow would be a better fit for him: “I talked to him once after a panel at the Paley Center, I was the moderator for the Paley Center CW panel at the Hollywood and Highland complex. And so afterwards, I was talking to Marc, and I was like, ‘Hey man, fans keep saying they want
