The post The CW Renews 10 Shows including “The Flash,” “Supernatural” and “Riverdale” appeared first on Entertainment For Us.
]]>In addition to the Arrowverse shows, Riverdale, Charmed, Dynasty, and Legacies will also get an additional season, while Supernatural will be returning for its 15th season.
The news about the renewals for these 10 shows was delivered by The CW’s President Mark Pedowitz during the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour.
“This season, we expanded our primetime schedule to six nights with the addition of Sunday — which has been an unqualified success for the network, our affiliates and our advertisers. In addition to growing our schedule across the week, we also continue to add more year-round programming. The early renewal of these signature CW series gives us a head start on laying out the 2019-2020 season, and this is just the beginning,” said Pedowitz.
“These shows provide a strong foundation for our multi-platform programming strategy, and we look forward to building on this with even more returning and new shows as we approach the May upfront.”
Further details regarding the renewals, including the episode count and possible series’ endings, will be revealed in May. This is when the network will also determine the fate of The 100, Roswell, New Mexico, All American and In the Dark. We previously learned that Jane the Virgin, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and iZombie are heading into their final season.

]]>Check them out below along with some tidbits of information about the new seasons for each show from the Comic Con panels!
With Oliver Queen now in prison with many of the bad guys he had a hand in putting away as the Arrow, actor Stephen Amell promises that at the beginning of the season “there’s nothing about him that’s heroic, at all.”
“There’s one scene in particular in the premiere [in which] what Oliver does is kind of reprehensible, and that’s interesting,” Amell teased.
Actor Colton Haynes, who plays Roy, praised new showrunner Beth Schwartz: “It’s the best spin that’s been put on the show since the show started. Having the female energy and female directors and female characters [feels] really special.”
“There’ll be a lot of deaths this season,” executive producer Todd Helbing told the fans at The Flash panel on Saturday.
He also discussed the big bad of the new season, Cicada, played by Chris Klein (American Pie). Helbing said unlike in the comics, Cicada is “not so much a cult leader,” but “his powers present a challenge for Team Flash that they’ve never had to deal with before.”
And fans of Tom Cavanaugh have a reason to rejoice, as we will once again get a new portrayal of Wells from him: Sherloque Wells, who is “a very intelligent human being who is maybe not to be trusted,” according to Cavanaugh.
While much of the last season of Supergirl was spent on the question of how to balance Kara Danvers and Supergirl and who Kara wanted to be more, featuring actress Melissa Benoist more in her blue spandex suit than out of it, it seems like the new season will bring back Kara the journalist.
“Kara Danvers the reporter is going to be as big of a hero this season as Supergirl,” according to executive producer Jessica Queller.
“Last year, we were in outer space a lot. This year, we wanted to make the show a little more grounded. We wanted to take this opportunity to reflect on some of the things that are happening in our world,” EP Robert Rovner explained.
The show will also feature a new character, Nia, the first-ever transgender superhero on TV. Actress Nicole Maines describes her as “so wide-eyed” and “so pure.”
“She’s worked for Cat Grant in Washington, D.C., and she’s been sent to National City,” where Kara takes her under her wing as both a reporter and superhero. “She has this ferocious drive to protect and to fight against discrimination. She’s the superhero we need right now.”
The Legends will see several big changes this year, as neither Firestorm nor Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) are coming back following the death of Professor Stein (Victor Garber), who is one half of Firestorm, and the decision of the other half, Jefferson (Franz Drameh) to go off on his own.
The good news is that Maisie Richardson-Sellers, who played Amaya, will be coming back, but as a new character named Charlie who slipped through the portal opened at the finale of last season.
And a bonus trailer which is not part of the Arrowverse, but part of the DC Universe superhero lineup on the CW, Black Lightning!

]]>Greg Berlanti, who has his fingerprints all over The CW’s Arrowverse, will be tasked with developing the series, while Caroline Dries (The Vampire Diaries) will pen the script.
The character of Batwoman will be introduced at The CW’s annual DC series crossover event scheduled for December.
This will be the first time the character is featured in the live-action form. The actress that will portray the role is still to be determined.
Alongside the announcement, The CW also revealed the official synopsis for the series:
“Batwoman revolves around Kate Kane, who, armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind, soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city’s criminal resurgence. But don’t call her a hero yet: in a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.“
Batwoman will join other DC Comics-based series at The CW, rounded up in the shared universe called Arrowverse, which include Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow and Black Lightning.
