SUPERGIRL Season 4 Will Have More Brainiac-5, Less Winn
We have a couple casting shifts for Supergirl‘s fourth season, ahead of Monday’s finale. One fan-favorite character has been promoted, while we’ll be seeing less of an original character.

Wally West Won’t Be a Series Regular on LEGENDS OF TOMORROW Next Season
Keiynan Lonsdale’s Wally West was a key supporting character on The Flash for a couple years, before leaving during its fourth season. He went on to join Legends of Tomorrow in the second half of this past season, and he was arguably a better fit there than he ever was on Flash. Unfortunately, even that has to come to an end. According to TV Line, Lonsdale will not be returning to Legends of Tomorrow season four – at least as a series regular. No reason was given for the exit, but the door is open for him to return in the future in any capacity. However, Wally will pop up…

ARROW SEASON 6 Review
In the second half of Arrow season 6 (check out our mid-season review here), Team Arrow has an all-out Civil War. Cayden James is not the main villain as we previously thought. In a surprise twist, Ricardo Diaz rises to the forefront. Oliver loses his team’s trust (again), all while dealing with his impending impeachment. Arrow season 6 was a rollercoaster ride, but was it enjoyable? With Diaz taking over as head of the league of villains, we once again have an enemy that can go toe-to-toe with the Green Arrow. Oliver has decided to do this job solo after a huge (and a little contrived) falling-out with the team, including…

Arrow and The Flash have finished their seasons, with Supergirl still going for a few more weeks. All three shows are returning for new seasons in the fall, and inevitably, that means new characters. Today, we have some new details on what to expect from those new characters. Per TV Line, Arrow is currently looking to cast two new recurring characters for its seventh season. One is an anti-vigilante recruit at the SCPD, while the other is a gay tech whiz who has a “heartbreaking” past. It’s unclear if these characters are original creations for the show or characters from the comics. However, Stephen Amell recently teased that the show is…

ARROW Star Stephen Amell Teases the Goatee and a New Character in Season 7
[Warning: The Following Contains MAJOR SPOILERS From the Arrow Season 6 Finale.] So, the season six finale for Arrow really shook things up, in preparation for the show’s seventh season. In exchange for the FBI’s help in defeating Ricardo Diaz, Oliver Queen agreed not only to turn himself in, but to publicly announce that he is the Green Arrow. Whatever secret identity Oliver had is now gone forever. Oliver is now in prison, Quentin Lance is dead, and Diaz is still out there somewhere…albeit with his empire destroyed. Clearly, Arrow will look very different next season, and now, we have some hints to how. At Motor City Comic-Con (via ComicBook), series…
