SUPERGIRL is adding five new characters for its sophomore season on The CW.
>LENA LUTHOR (Regular) I Lex Luthor's estranged sister, who relocates to National City to get out from under the shadow of her infamous brother. Lena is sexy, smart and determined to get what she wants. But what does she want?
>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.
>THE DOCTOR (Recurring) I The diabolical director of Project Cadmus, who uses her surgical skills to implant prisoners with alien technology in order to create weapons needed to build a new world order.
Plus Superman will appear in a two-episode arc.

>>83606209
Bald Lena pls
>>83606209
Oh shit, Snapper Carr.
>>83606298
Farrow is the only one I don't know
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?
>two regulars
So who are Lena and Nick replacing?
>>83606391
>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.
>>83606334
SNAP SNAP!
>>83606408
Hopefully not Cat, the sister, or J'onn. Everyone else can fuck off though.
>>83606436
They've already confirmed Callista Flockhart is sticking around.
>>83606104
>MAGGIE SAWYER
KATE WHEN
Also, how come Kate hasn't shown up in Gotham yet? She's prime for exploring
>>83606436
Cat is on board for Vancouver. Way that lady talks up the show. Damn cool.
>>83606209
>Snapper Carr
Oh snap, son!
>>83606490
>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
>>83606477
>>83606519
Good to hear.
So the television universe will have Snapper Carr while the movies will have Snapper Kal?
>>83606490
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.
>>83606209
>Maggie Sawyer
Oh fuck, little bit hype.
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.
>Snapper Carr
BEST CHARACTER
HYPEsnap snap
>>83606610
>Chase
I just posted about this last night in the Prez thread. I wonder if they'll reprint that trade with this appearance.
>>83606618
Ohhh, you act like that would be a bad thing. Hot Grey Lady
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.
>>83606610
>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"
>>83606674
>his
So it's not...?
>>83606408
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.
>>83606714
Casual writers tool. I go for Google search and then I look for other languages and older references. Never go with first choice.
What are the chances Flash s3 has The Renegades and Hot Pursuit?
>>83606737
Be it so bad that "James" moves back to his home planet.
>>83606235
>Mags
OH SHIT WE SCIENCE POLICE NOW
>>83606737
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.
>>83606714
Anton Chigurgh: A Two-Face type with his eyes on Felicity.
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.
>>83606924
>LEGENDS OF TOMORROW
>>83606345
He's an OC.
Even "The Doctor" is apparently Sterling Roquette.
>>83606714
Well, "Anton" is a generic bad guy name. Though "Church" is suspicious...
Church of Crime, maybe? Can they go there? Dahrk had Motherbox blueprints.
>>83606839
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.
>>83606209
Project cadmus FUCK YEAH. And a gay lady detective ALSO FUCK YEAH
>>83606924
Keep in mind Guggenheim has indicated that the "male hero" and "female hero" descriptions were fake. The female hero might actually be Vixen.
>>83606209
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.
>>83606959
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.
>>83607104
Lena's been around since the 60s I think
>>83607104
Lena has been Lex's sister for decades. Don't be a fucking casual man.
>>83607114
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.
>>83607102
Guggenheim also said season 5 would be great and that Olicity made sense.
His words are as empty as as the Arrow Cave now.
>>83607198
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.
>>83607198
same
>>83607104
/tv/ casual pls go
>>83606209
>SNAPPER CARR
You've gone too far Berlanti.
TOO FAR!
>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
>>83607259
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
>>83606209
>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?
>>83606209
>SNAPPER CARR
>Sassy gay man
screencap this
>>83606436
She is currently in an ongoing discussion to reprise her role
>>83607212
you mean the Quiver?
>>83606598
>I've got a whole arc written up for those two
stole it from brazzers?
>>83606924
>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?
>>83606209
>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 withSuperdad becoming CyborSupes.
I've seen this girl taking a penis inside her cunt.
I cannot take her seriously as Supergirl
>>83607758
I thought the same after i fucked youre mum.
>>83606702
>felicity's mom is now regular
CAN'T WAKE UP
>>83607212
>Olicity made sense.
it does make sense, they want fangirls to keep watching, they're the ones that keep supernatural alive too
>>83606702
Who cares anymore?
>>83606209
>Lena is sexy, smart and determined to get what she wants. But what does she want?
James obviously
>>83606391
I'm fucking dying. Maggie is good enough as it is, but Kate? That fits with their emphasis on women too.
I'mSUPERexcited.
>>83607388
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.
Why are they always sexy and smart? Whats wrong with an ugly smart women?
>>83607259
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.
>>83610769
Ugly people can't be shown on TV
>>83606209
>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
>>83610769
Nobody wants to see that shit
>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.
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.
>>83612564
Mr. Bones as in him?
>>83606924
>Showrunners also confirmed Captain Cold, Hawkman and Hawkgirl will make appearances further down the line.
>>83612639
Yes, as in him.
>>83606967
So, B5 in disguise?
I guess they're hiding information about who's in the pod.
>>83610977
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.
>>83612881
none of it sounds like Brainiac 5
>>83612987
That's why it's a disguise.
But no, it's probably a less interesting fake-out or the first signs of male felicity.
>>83606924
>A Blackhawk is black
Given CW I'd have expected them to just screw it and make her past Kendra
>>83607952
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.
>>83606924
Give Constantine a home
>>83606209
>THE DOCTOR
>>83610769
Ugly Betty.
Fuck yes Maggie, so ready for this. It's too bad Gotham already fucked up Renee.
>>83612881
>>83612987
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?
>>83606209
Sounds fucking lame.
>>83610769
Because their ugly duh.
>>83606209
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.
>>83612495
Smallville ran for a whole decade you know.
>>83615624
And Aquaman was on it anyway
>>83607593
>You mean the Quiver
But Anon, Felicity doesn't have a secret identity
>>83615283
Cat was already confirmed. Remember the biggest chunk of the budget was licensing they no longer need to pay.
>Science Police
Legion of Superheroes fuck yeah!
>>83606209
who cares about this show I need pictures, pictures of supergirl
>>83616264
what licensing?
>>83616264
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.
Sooner or later they will have to start actually having good plots instead of just cramming cameos and comicbook references
>>83617429
Every episode cost something like $3 million in licensing fees to air on CBS.
>>83617396
>>83617585
>>83606490
Kate is supposed to be younger than Bruce.
>>83612292
Explain Lena Dunham then.
>>83606702
>"CHASE" (Recurring) I A cocksure and reckless ex-Marine turned vigilante who clashes with the Green Arrow over their different methods.
So CW wants to have their own "Punisher vs Daredevil" story, I see.
Also "cocksure"? Really?
>>83617802
Problem, Butt-Head?
>>83617585
>>83617641
why is she so adorable
>>83617802
Rainbow Archer. Calling it now.
>>83617802
What different methods?
Ollie killed in season 1.
>>83615283
You and me both!
>>83612564
>>83617802
>Punisher invented vigilantes and the Army
>>83618307
Superior Kryptonian genes
Batwoman when?
but will it have new writers
hell, will it have new people on costumes and shit? because both of those were horrible outside of Supergirl herself
>>83619052
>>83606209
>THE DOCTOR (Recurring) I The diabolical director of Project Cadmus, who uses her surgical skills to implant prisoners with alien technology in order to create weapons needed to build a new world order.
literally who
>>83616375
So, in a perfect universe, the Supergirl series gets a full run and an actual conclusion where she stays in the future with Brainiac 5?
>>83606209
>Lena is sexy, smart and determined to get what she wants
How come every time I see a roll call for a show like this, this sentence is always in there?
>>83620772
Because TV is filled with sexy, smart people with agendas.
>>83620597
She'll never leave her sister. She'll want to, but her bond with Alex is intense.
She immediately and unconditionally forgave her for killing her aunt, when she was utterly pissed at J'onn moments ago. On a Berlanti show no less.
>>83620772
When was the last time you watched a drama about a stupid NEET?
>>83620920
Umaru?
>>83617641
>>83621504
>>83621514
>>83621542
>>83621570
>>83618307
>>83621570
>>83621504
Benoist is so cute it's painful. My God that outfit drives me wild
>>83621585
>Supergirl will never sing to you in French
>why live

>>83606209
>FELICITY SMOAK (Regular) | A quirky computer genius and billionaire whose expansion into journalism and National City quickly begins to push CatCo out of the city. At this point veteran superheroine, Felicity's mastery of technology also starts to assist Supergirl at keeping the city safe. With Felicity being a threat in Kara's civilian life and an asset in her heroine life, their relationship is sure to be one of the more interesting factors in the show.
>>83621848
NO U
>>83621735
my goodness... didn't think I needed this before tonight.
>>83618307
>>83621504
>>83621514
>>83621542
>>83621570
>>83621585
>>83621644
Marry mee
I know she'd never do it, but Alice Eve would be perfect for Peej.
>>83607758
Honestly the dude banging her is hotter than she is... And he wasn't anything to write home about. Those pictures were so tame and vanilla its hardly any worse than what you see in supergirl. The lack of pussy eating in the photo set is the real crime.
>>83615283
On an ideal world, Nigga Olsen would be fired but we live on a world where people are judged according to the color of their skin
>>83606209
>MAGGIE SAWYER
>A openly homosexual detective
did they really have to open with that?
>>83618322
He killed Darhk. Maybe this guy is mad about the killing, not the other way around.
>>83622825
>liberal hollywood
Of course, shitlord.
>>83622825
Okay, you capture the essence of the character in four words or less keeping in mind that she's a minor character on a format (television) that probably won't lend itself to deep character development.
>>83618307
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDjS-FeY6wc
>>83622184
She's married to Cat Grant's son.
The non-shota.
>>83622825
the only reason anyone cares about her is gay shipping, it's the most important thing to mention
>>83623122
God I want Krypto. I don't care if he's a regular dog, she just needs a puppy.
>>83623135
Supergirl has already too much gay shipping. It's a direct result of having a nigger and a betamax as the only official romantic options.
>>83623439
A horse.
A horse who fantasizes of a relationship with her.
>>83620320
>because both of those were horrible outside of Supergirl herself
>>83625824
>I've designed a robot that looks almost exactly like a dude wearing protective sports gear
Max Lord has really lame design instincts.
>>83626344
What would you expect from this creepy weirdo?
>>83621848
>Kara: Barry was right about you Felicity. You are Amazing!
>Felicity: I know.
>Kara: Felicity Smoak, it turns out... you're the REAL Super Girl.
>>83606209
>A openly homosexual
So being gay is literally a marketing ploy nowadays?
>>83607104
He had a sister in Smallville as well
>>83620352
>>83621848
>>83626927
STOP PLEASE!
>>83627656
Yes, but she wasn't introduced as his sister, and neither of them new until later on anyway (on Lex's side that was mostly on account of the whole... being dead thing).
But on that subject, maybe they could get Cassidy Freeman to play Lena, just to really mess with people.
>MAGGIE SAWYER (Recurring) I A openly homosexual detective for the newly-formed Science Police, which deals specifically with meta-human and alien threats.
Is this gonna be like the police chief on Flash where his husband is brought up in every bit of dialogue he has?
