It looks like, per the Deadline article above, that all the shows will have only one showrunner going forward, except for Supergirl. Arrow - Beth Schwartz Black Lightning - Salim Akil The Flash - Todd Helbing Legends of Tomorrow - Phil Klemmer Supergirl - Robert Rovner, Jessica Queller 1 Link to comment
Primal Slayer April 18, 2018 Share April 18, 2018 I think they just figured it was no use in having co-showrunners. Everyone left is doing a billion other projects that take them away from the show so there isn't a need to have a partner. Link to comment

tennisgurl April 18, 2018 Share April 18, 2018 Oh DC. What are you doing, ever? Its so clear that there is no plan whatsoever, and they're still just throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. Its just sad at this point. Like, they saw that their Harley Quinn got get reviews, so now its "quickly, shoehorn her into a franchise when she shouldn't even be the star of!" and off we go. Now greater plan or reasons, just desperate scrambling to keep up with their competition. 4 Link to comment

Primal Slayer April 18, 2018 Share April 18, 2018 Yeah it was a fairly good finale, it seemed weird that no one was trying to blow up Freeland or take the city down in the finale lol. It was all about the family and them being in dire danger. Though I did laugh that Thunder kept swatting that power disrupter thing as if it was going to go away. Did she not realize the source? 1 Link to comment

Starfish35 April 18, 2018 Share April 18, 2018 (edited) I saw something about this yesterday, but didn't realize that it was a DC film until today. Steven Spielberg Set To Produce His First DC Film ‘Blackhawk’ With Eye On Directing Quote Steven Spielberg will produce his first DC title for Warner Bros., Blackhawk, with an eye on the three-time Oscar winning filmmaker directing under his Amblin banner. ***** Blackhawk was first published by Quality Comics and later by DC and was created by Chuck Cuidera with input by Bob Powell and Will Eisner. In the series, the Blackhawks are a small team of War War II ace pilots who are led by an enigmatic leader, Blackhawk. In the comic book, they operate out of a hidden base known as Blackhawk Island and battle Axis forces, but also foes such as King Condor and Killer Shark, and a line of femme fatales. During the height of the comic’s popularity, it outsold every other comic book but Superman. The screenplay for Blackhawk is being penned by David Koepp, who has collaborated with Spielberg as a screenwriter on his titles Jurassic Park, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, War of the Worlds and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Spielberg will produce the film together with Kristie Macosko Krieger, under Amblin Entertainment, while Sue Kroll will executive produce, under her Kroll & Co. Entertainment shingle.

Carter, who portrayed the Amazonian princess in the 1970s television series, has previously expressed an interest in appearing in the sequel to Wonder Woman. Now, the iconic actress confirmed that she has had discussions with director Patty Jenkins about a having a role in the highly-anticipated film: “That is up to Patty Jenkins. I’ve been talking to her about it. She’s given me some hints about it and I guess it’s up to Warner Bros if they want to spend the money. […] It really is up to Patty, and if it works in an organic way it’ll be great fun and it’ll be wonderful to do.” Edited April 18, 2018 by tv echo 7 Link to comment
Starfish35 April 18, 2018 Share April 18, 2018 Regarding the Blackhawk movie, wasn't a time-displaced Lady Blackhawk a member of the Birds of Prey for a while? Is it possible there might be some slight evidence of a plan here? Or am I being overly optimistic? :) 3 Link to comment

way2interested April 19, 2018 Share April 19, 2018 (edited) I know they had a narrative around the internet about a bad test screening and new reshoots, but from spoiler breakdowns of the movie (that might be wrong, but they predicted a bunch of jokes that didn't get revealed until the last trailer or even this new trailer, so I'm just going with it for now), it seems like it'll be fine and still fun. 1 minute ago, Mellowyellow said: I always see it with the stragglers later to avoid crowds and potentially smelly/annoying people!
