    The Superman / Lois spin off show has been greenlit, so looks like the CW stable ain't getting any slimmer.

    Have to say THAT cameo blew my mind.
    Berlanti said Ezra Miller reached out to them and it was actually filmed after everything was wrapped and in the can.

    I don't think this crossover was the best but that made me giddy. You could feel the joy both of actors.

    That was a curious series finale for Arrow.

    After Diggle's final scene, it's going to be hard to ignore that elephant in the room across the Arrowverse.

    It has been hinted so they had to pay of the fans as much as they can with Diggle.
    He did say they are moving to Metropolis so could be Superman show

    English is such a funny language.

    Did he throw them into the sea as bait for fish or something?

    Or is Lois the director?

    :D

    Apparently Stateside, the CW will be repeating the Crisis event because they don't have enough new shows in their April schedule. Mad stuff.

    Had a feeling this would happen, can see NBC and CBS announce the same thing soon.

    I've seen things about the battle scenes will have to change no more close proximity fighting for instance also no more group fighting

    Where you getting that? Last I read there was no clarity yet for unions or groupings about how production shooting would function post CoVid. There's going to be a lot of things to work out, logistically. Unless a specific US state decides to abandon procedures ... then suddenly we can expect everything to be shot somewhere like Arkansas lol.

    That sounds utterly ludicrous, and comes off as spitballing through caution. Limit love scenes? Let's just rub two cutouts of the actors together lol. Or a series of very racy, suggestive dinners, When Harry Met Sally style. That whole article was surreal to read, but also sprinkled with caveats and abstracts.

    The synopsis for Flash's 7th season has also been released, I imagine it had something to do with the original Reverse Flash cliff hanger that was planned...

    The CW shows already felt pretty low budget with an execution you had to look past, I shudder to think how rough they might be if everything's shot with an attempt to avoid contact. Obviously safety first but I'd rather no shows at all than weird episodes where no two people are ever in the same shot, or fight scenes becoming even more limp. Cinematography and choreography ain't that channels strengths.

    Well they could probably get around it by using alot of green screen as in if you were 2 having two people close together in a scene you would film them separately with green screen in back and then add them together in post production. Action scenes would be alot more difficult

    I don't think CW have the chops or budget though to pull off digital trickery like that, and when I've seen other shows do it (such as Season 4 Arrested Development, when they couldn't get all the cast together in one shoot) it nearly always looks awful anyway. I dunno, we'll see and maybe it'll be fine - just wondering if the smart move wasn't to defer the whole lot until things return to normal.

    Yeah filming any type of show or film while social distancing is going to be very difficult. Thing is they can't just defer til everything gets to normal as imagine all the crew members (not the actors) who would be out of jobs for months.

    Preview of fight scenes in the new seasons

    As for the sex scenes, can we see a return to train entering tunnel/fireworks or

    The only thing I can think of that links Batwoman to Superman is Batman. What if the crossover is about finding him since he has disappeared. Also makes sense to only do a crossover with the 2 newest shows as gives the other shows a break from the logistical nightmare that is the yearly crossover. Hopefully going forward, they just do 2 show crossovers.

    Rudy Rose quits Batwoman I see on Twitter.

    Couldn't watch it with her in it she just can't act and was a charisma vacuum, I might give it a chance next season if they hire someone with a bit of charisma at least even if they can't act.

    It actually was not bad. I wonder will they go with it as the same Batwoman or will there be some reset due to something. I am guessing it is due to surgeries on the herinated discs
