>NICK FARROW (Regular) I A brash investigative journalist 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 constantly arises. Through his interactions with Kara, the hero in Nick might finally come out.
>SNAPPER CARR (Recurring) I A veteran journalist appointed by Cat Grant to remake CatCo's news division by going old school.
>MAGGIE SAWYER (Recurring) I A openly homosexual detective for the newly-formed Science Police, which deals specifically with meta-human and alien threats.

Gabriel Williams
Rev up those search engines.
Andrew Cox
Bald Lena pls
Aaron Gray
Oh shit, Snapper Carr.
Anthony Baker
Farrow is the only one I don't know
Jack Lee
Cool Maggie on deck. Maybe we can get a Metropolis PD show at some point with her and Turpin. Have her rich lady friend from across the river show up.
Think they'd go with an Albino color pallete for Kate?
Noah Miller
>two regulars
So who are Lena and Nick replacing?
Jackson Baker
>Kate God I want this so bad. I mean, if Superman can exist in Supergirl's earth why can't Batman? Or Batwoman for that matter.
SNAP SNAP!
William Walker
Hopefully not Cat, the sister, or J'onn. Everyone else can fuck off though.
Julian Butler
They've already confirmed Callista Flockhart is sticking around.
Tyler Phillips
>MAGGIE SAWYER KATE WHEN
Also, how come Kate hasn't shown up in Gotham yet? She's prime for exploring
Dominic Ross
Cat is on board for Vancouver. Way that lady talks up the show. Damn cool.
Nicholas Bailey
>Snapper Carr
Oh snap, son!
Owen Jackson
>Kate shows up in Gotham >Maggie shows up in Supergirl >their undying lesbian love for each other causes the earths to collide and become one
Joshua Perry
Good to hear.
Anthony Fisher
So the television universe will have Snapper Carr while the movies will have Snapper Kal?
Mason Parker
She need to come into Gotham as fresh out of military estranged cousin of Bruce. Helps give him some training while searching for her family's legacy and fortune. Will the help of a rookie Patrol Cop Maggie Sawyer. I've got a whole arc written up for those two.
Owen Turner
>Maggie Sawyer
Oh fuck, little bit hype.
Gavin Reyes
Why does this show keep throwing in relatives of superman related characters? What next Denise seid? Estranged niece of darkseid and newly hired receptionist of whatever magazine supervisor works for.
Ryder Parker
>Snapper Carr
BEST CHARACTER
HYPE
snap snap
Carter Anderson
>Chase
I just posted about this last night in the Prez thread. I wonder if they'll reprint that trade with this appearance.
Asher Davis
Ohhh, you act like that would be a bad thing. Hot Grey Lady
Joseph Smith
ARROW also announced its new characters.
>ANTON CHURCH (Regular) I A ruthless crime lord who sets out to fill the sizable void left by Damien Darhk and H.I.V.E. Church is an apex predator” who cuts his way through the shadows by taking down the biggest threat first, and quickly sets his sights on newly-appointed Mayor Oliver Queen.
>"JAMES" (Regular) I An irrepressibly charming contemporary of Oliver's who quickly proves himself to be a terrifying new adversary. Behind his charitable façade, "James" is a man on a mission, out to avenge a tragic, violent loss from his own years prior. He might just as easily shake your hand as your best friend or break your neck as your worst enemy — and you never know which one is coming. Either way, he’s more than capable of having a good time as he does it.
>"CHASE" (Recurring) I A cocksure and reckless ex-Marine turned vigilante who clashes with the Green Arrow over their different methods.
Alexander Russell
>ANTON CHURCH The founder of the Church of Satan is Anton LaVey
What are the chance they picked the name after a quick google search for "satanic stuff"
Juan Martinez
>his So it's not...?
Jose Long
They don't necessarily have to be replacing anyone. Casts do grow, and Kara's new position at CatCo will surely put her into contact with new people.
Ian Torres
Casual writers tool. I go for Google search and then I look for other languages and older references. Never go with first choice.
Luke Taylor
What are the chances Flash s3 has The Renegades and Hot Pursuit?
Robert Gomez
Be it so bad that "James" moves back to his home planet.
Samuel Taylor
>Mags
OH SHIT WE SCIENCE POLICE NOW
Ethan Lopez
Casts grow, but I find it hard to believe the CW would want to spend money on 8 regular cast members. At least one person is leaving.
Mason Jackson
Anton Chigurgh: A Two-Face type with his eyes on Felicity.
Michael Bell
LEGENDS OF TOMORROW too.
>REX TYLER / HOURMAN (Patrick J. Adams) I A hero with a mysterious past and an equally mysterious agenda, and a founding member of a legendary group of superheroes, the Justice Society fo America, who launches a new mission for the Legends. Series regular.
>VIXEN (Regular) I A dutiful member of the long line of warriors who wield the mystical Tantu Totem that affords its keeper the abilities of the animals, and an ancestor of its current guardian, Mari McCabe. Vixen is removed from the timestream by Rip to join the Legends as they embark on a dangerous mission across time to save the world.
>MALE HERO (Regular) I A man who grew up in the shadow of his grandfather, a hero from World War II, and has used a Han Solo-like facade to conceal his insecurity — until, that is, the development of superpowers enables him to love up to his family legacy.
Rumored to be Nathan Heywood / Citizen Steel.
>FEMALE HERO (Regular) I A member of an elite paramilitary team living in the 1940's. An African-American, she is scrutinized in her time for both her gender and race and thus has worked twice as hard to be a perfect soldier. That said, she blames herself for — and aims to avenge — the death of a team member for whom she had repressed feelings.
Rumored to be Zinda Blake / Lady Blackhawk.
Showrunners also confirmed Captain Cold, Hawkman and Hawkgirl will make appearances further down the line.
Dominic Brooks
>LEGENDS OF TOMORROW
Jaxson Sullivan
He's an OC.
Even "The Doctor" is apparently Sterling Roquette.
David White
Well, "Anton" is a generic bad guy name. Though "Church" is suspicious...
Church of Crime, maybe? Can they go there? Dahrk had Motherbox blueprints.
Isaiah Walker
Kara and Alex are confirmed.
Cat too, but might be bumped down to regular.
No word on James, Winn or J'onn yet, though James at least will probably be back.
Adam Ross
Project cadmus FUCK YEAH. And a gay lady detective ALSO FUCK YEAH
Noah Baker
Keep in mind Guggenheim has indicated that the "male hero" and "female hero" descriptions were fake. The female hero might actually be Vixen.
Chase Ramirez
Supergirl herself is lovely - the show is severely underwhelming. Lex now has a sister? Ah, of course, Superman has Lex, Supergirl must have a girl enemy. the cliché's are flooding this show to death. I so want to like it, but I must give up.
Nolan Martin
I'd be on board if they completely abandoned the time travel shit. It's like they did as much coke as possible when writing those parts.
Ian Anderson
Lena's been around since the 60s I think
Christian Richardson
Lena has been Lex's sister for decades. Don't be a fucking casual man.
Xavier Cox
The problem was the main plot. If they had just focused on minor troubles in the time stream and fixing them it would have been fine.
William Martinez
Guggenheim also said season 5 would be great and that Olicity made sense.
His words are as empty as as the Arrow Cave now.
Nicholas Phillips
I think they can't handle time travel at all. All the weird ass backwards excuses for why they couldn't fix things like "the timeline hasn't hardened yet" was too much for me.
Blake Perez
same
Luke Martinez
Sup Forums casual pls go
Ethan Powell
>SNAPPER CARR You've gone too far Berlanti. TOO FAR!
Bentley Robinson
>No Mon El in description for new regulars/recurring >None of these fit for a person in rocket
2-Parter premiere ending with phantom zone confirmed
Joseph Rogers
solidified time is straight out of the comics, they are just really bad at explaining it and clearly making up shit as they go along instead of actually plotting anything out ahead of time
Jackson Evans
>I Lex Luthor's estranged sister, who relocates to National City
Wait, so they're going to either keep filming in LA or try to make Vancouver look like old National city?
Nicholas Hill
>SNAPPER CARR >Sassy gay man screencap this
Joshua Parker
She is currently in an ongoing discussion to reprise her role
Brody Scott
you mean the Quiver?
Austin Brown
>I've got a whole arc written up for those two stole it from brazzers?
Blake Jackson
>I A man who grew up in the shadow of his grandfather, a hero from World War II, and has used a Han Solo-like facade to conceal his insecurity — until, that is, the development of superpowers enables him to love up to his family legacy
Citizen Steel?
Jason Edwards
>Lena Ok, i remember originally they wanted her as Kara's Lex. >Farrow meh, this is just what this show needs another shit tier love interest. >Snapper Fucking Carr This can only be glorious, also terrible. >Maggie Sawyer Fuck yeah, i hope we get Turpin and Kate down the line too...but: Lesbian character in the CW... top kek incomming The new evil woman from Cadmus. I give her six episodes tops miniboss status, that its only going to be worth because it will end with Superdad becoming CyborSupes.
Zachary Collins
I've seen this girl taking a penis inside her cunt.
I cannot take her seriously as Supergirl
Mason Hughes
I thought the same after i fucked youre mum.
Connor Bailey
>felicity's mom is now regular CAN'T WAKE UP
Christopher Morris
>Olicity made sense. it does make sense, they want fangirls to keep watching, they're the ones that keep supernatural alive too
Cooper Sanchez
Who cares anymore?
Angel Campbell
>Lena is sexy, smart and determined to get what she wants. But what does she want? James obviously
Jonathan Watson
I'm fucking dying. Maggie is good enough as it is, but Kate? That fits with their emphasis on women too.
I'm SUPER excited.
Luke Baker
All they have to do is use the establishing shots they have and fly down for the occasional desert shot. The only real change will be the loss of the studio lot, which I thought looked kinda corny as it was.
Daniel Phillips
Why are they always sexy and smart? Whats wrong with an ugly smart women?
Sebastian Morris
That is how time travel things work in a lot of stories though. Even Back to the Future had that. it's why Marty had a week before he would have been erased. It's why Old Biff was able to go to the future timeline where Doc and Marty were before he was rewritten. The future wasn't fully written yet.
Ryder Williams
Ugly people can't be shown on TV
Lucas Thomas
>Lena is sexy, smart and determined to get what she wants. But what does she want? Considering the tone of the show, most probably the big black cock
Oliver Clark
Nobody wants to see that shit
Blake Bennett
>Superman public image is so tarnished he can now be shown in CW shows
I feel bad for him. Thankfully GL, Aquaman, Batman and WW are still safe.
Andrew Johnson
I kinda want for them to introduce the shadowy regional head of the DEO in the area...
Have them be like Doctor Claw for a while, we never actually see them.
Just that they wear gaudy ties and smoke a cigar.
And then finally... FINALLY...
Maybe a half season finale or whatever, we're finally introduced to Regional Director Bones.
Asher Allen
Mr. Bones as in him?
William Carter
>Showrunners also confirmed Captain Cold, Hawkman and Hawkgirl will make appearances further down the line.
Anthony Ward
Yes, as in him.
Xavier Ramirez
So, B5 in disguise?
I guess they're hiding information about who's in the pod.
Wyatt Bell
That's not how solidified time in the comics actually works. It's not a "time hasn't changed yet" thing, it's "there are certain events in history that we can't change no matter how hard we try because destiny will somehow intervene to screw up our attempts to change it"
For example, Booster Gold tried to go back in time REPEATEDLY to prevent Barbara getting shot in the Killing Joke and SOMEHOW failed every single time, for the smallest and dumbest reasons, like he was literally blocked from getting to Barbara's apartment by slapsticky pratfalls and situation comedy. And Rip told him that was just an event in history that can't be altered and is meant to happen, it's "solidified" in time.
Nathaniel Evans
none of it sounds like Brainiac 5
Thomas Hill
That's why it's a disguise. But no, it's probably a less interesting fake-out or the first signs of male felicity.
Julian Gonzalez
>A Blackhawk is black
Given CW I'd have expected them to just screw it and make her past Kendra
Daniel Cox
Flash gets better ratings without pandering to them.
Or do they actually like Iris? I've never seen it be a thing on social media like Felicity is.
Cameron Bennett
Give Constantine a home
Grayson Fisher
>THE DOCTOR
Daniel Ward
Ugly Betty.
Hunter Cooper
Fuck yes Maggie, so ready for this. It's too bad Gotham already fucked up Renee.
Jordan Johnson
I thought the nerdy guy was B5, but it turns out to be Toyman's Son.
And then I told my friend: Why can't it be both?
Logan Martinez
Sounds fucking lame.
Nolan Adams
Because their ugly duh.
Dominic Morgan
But what I really want to know, who isn't coming back. Cat Grant probably conveniently takes a vacation and puts someone else to run the business, and we get a couple of cameos from her every once in while, probably some cheap face time phone calls or something so she doesn't have to come to Canada or where ever they film this thing.
Also very interested to see how drastic the jump will be, in terms of sets and all. But who knows, maybe they'l build an exact replica of CatCo and DEO, and all that.
Also, I said this in some earlier thread, but I'll say it again, I want Director Bones to be in charge of the DEO like in the comics.
Kayden Ortiz
Smallville ran for a whole decade you know.
Parker Stewart
And Aquaman was on it anyway
Zachary Walker
>You mean the Quiver But user, Felicity doesn't have a secret identity
Josiah James
Cat was already confirmed. Remember the biggest chunk of the budget was licensing they no longer need to pay.
Hunter Butler
>Science Police
Legion of Superheroes fuck yeah!
Charles Ward
who cares about this show I need pictures, pictures of supergirl
Christian Garcia
what licensing?
Xavier Reyes
The biggest part of the budget was shooting in California. They already stated the reason they moved production was because California denied them a tax credit for working in the state. The issue was a minor deal, since Supergirl was supposed to reverse the trend of television studios setting up in other parts of the continent.
Levi Edwards
Sooner or later they will have to start actually having good plots instead of just cramming cameos and comicbook references
