Arrowverse’s Batwoman Crossover Casts Cassandra Jean Amell as Nora Fries
This year’s Arrowverse crossover event is a big one, despite not involving Legends of Tomorrow. The event introduces Batwoman and Lois Lane to the universe, while Superman is returning. Now, The CW has announced another key addition. Cassandra Jean Amell – aka the real-life wife of Arrow star Stephen Amell – is set to play Nora Fries in the crossover. Fries is the wife of Batman villain Victor Fries, aka Mr. Freeze. However, don’t expect the cool villain to show up and break the ice in the event. Amell’s past credits include America’s Next Top Model, Mad Men, and more. Nora’s exact role in the crossover is being kept under…

Shane West Joins GOTHAM Season 5 in Villainous Role
Gotham seems to be a show that you either love or hate. Everywhere, from YouTube to social media, the only reactions to the show I see is either “this is the best show ever” or “I hate this ….. show.” I’ve yet to find anyone that seems to be in the middle with its taste. Anyway, with it gearing up to its final season, Gotham seems to have added yet another villain to its roster. Enter Shane West, who, according to Deadline, is playing Eduardo Dorrance which is an old war buddy of Jim Gordon (played by Ben McKenzie.). Any big fan of Batman lore more than likely recognizes that…

SWAMP THING Writer Teases Costume and Hard R-Rated Approach
For you that are unaware, DC Comics’ upcoming Swamp Thing show and recent Conjuring spinoff The Nun share screenwriters. But I guess that’s Nun of my business. During an interview with /Film, Gary Dauberman talks about Swamp Thing among some other stuff. He confirms that, just like Titans, the show will be rated R (and a hard one at that). They want to try and push it as hard as they can. He also confirmed that Alan Moore’s run of the creature is their main inspiration, and he mentioned that the creature will not be CGI but an actual suit. What do you think about this? Comment below and let…

The Flash has a new villain coming to Central City and he’s bound to have the team in knots. According to TV Insider, America’s Got Talent alum Troy James has been cast to play Rag Doll.

Moving on to Arrow, you’ll never guess what’s up with Roy Harper this season. That’s what Stephen Amell thinks at least. At Comic-Con International, Amell spoke about having Colton Haynes back. It’s fantastic, man! I love Colton! So having him back is terrific,…

New Details on Alfred Prequel Series – PENNYWORTH
If you didn’t know, everyone is getting a television series. The latest DC character to grace the silver screen is everyone’s favorite butler, Alfred Pennyworth. Now, Pennyworth is not a Gotham spin-off, so don’t expect Sean Pertwee to play the titular character. But thanks to the good people at That Hashtag Show, we have some new information on the series. I always imagined Pennyworth being DC’s Downton Abbey, but alas, it won’t be. The series will take place in London starring an Alfred in his mid 20s. Hashtag Show says: (Pennyworth) is a former SAS member who ran highly classified missions for the British government, Alfred is trying to reconcile the…

Kyle Secor (Veronica Mars, Purge: Election Year) will recur this season on The Flash as Caitlin Snow’s father. Dr. Thomas Snow is an eccentric geneticist who has been missing for quite awhile, and tries to make up for lost time. But he’s hiding a secret, duh duh duh…… We’ll learn the role he played in Killer Frost’s creation, and see how much Dr. Carla Tannhauser (Caitlin’s mother) had a part in the powers as well. It seems both parents will have a part to play this season, so we’ll have to see if Caitlin gets her other half back. The Flash returns on The CW October 9 at 8 pm Eastern. And for…
