I like the new costume. I'm sure it will look fine on the show.

Some interesting gossip has come out in the past month or so about the Flash cast. This being the fifth season when many cast members' contracts are up and some probably won't get brought back next year, jockeying behind the scenes has been occurring. Apparently not everyone in the cast gets along that well.

They get signed for 7 year deals, not 5.

The lead sometimes has a seven-year deal (usually five years with a two-year option that often gets renegotiated) - supporting players do not sign up that long. See all the actors that Supergirl has already dumped.

Latest rumor is that the forthcoming Batwoman show will replace Arrow when that show ends.

The Flash and Supergirl will temporarily trade places to accommodate this fall’s Arrowverse crossover.

The CW has officially announced that this year’s three-show, Legends-less, three-night crossover event — which will introduce Kate Kane aka the Gotham vigilante known as Batwoman (played by Orange Is the New Black‘s Ruby Rose) — will air Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, December 9 through 11.

Specifically, the event will kick off that Sunday at 8/7c with a special airing of The Flash. The crossover continues Monday at 8 pm, in Arrow‘s new time slot, and then concludes on Tuesday at 8, where Supergirl (now a Sunday night series) will occupy The Flash‘s usual home.

Or, said differently and with far fewer cumbersome words:

ARROWVERSE CROSSOVER 2018!
* Sunday, Dec. 9 at 8 pm: The Flash
* Monday, Dec. 10 at 8 pm: Arrow
* Tuesday, Dec. 11 at 8 pm: Supergirl

As previously reported (and recently triple-confirmed), The Flash‘s milestone 100th episode (aka Season 4, Episode 8) will precede its crossover installment; in fact, all three series’ ninth episodes of the season will comprise the event. Additionally, Batwoman’s introduction will pave the way for the DC Comics superhero to possibly headline her own standalone series, in development for the 2019-20 TV season.

The Batwoman solo series is already a lock. Expect it to replace Arrow in the schedule if Amell walks. Supposedly it will be very similar to Arrow in feel - an action series based around a team of vigilante superheroes.

Promotional poster for the 3-night crossover in December. Basically it's just photoshopped images from past seasons.

TVLine's casting suggestions to play Lois Lane

Adelaide Kane
Lucy Hale
Kylie Bunbury
Phoebe Tonkin
Bethany Joy Lenz
Alexandra Daddario
Rachel Boston
Genesis Rodriguez
Kat Graham
Holland Roden
Victoria Justice
Autumn Reeser
Lea Michele
Lyndsy Fonseca
Kristin Kreuk (not happening since she already has a show)

A few of these are unrealistic. Some are way out there. I personally wouldn't mind Kane, Tonkin or Rachel Boston. I've liked Joy Lenz since OTH and looks like on her Twitter she's open to it after reading the story.

Fonseca!

Hail would probably be ok. But she just looks too young.

She's way too old. 12 years older than Tyler Hoechlin.

I think they want to cast someone in late 20's to early 30's tops.

Won't this be pretty much a one-time thing? At the most maybe 1-2 episodes a year?

Not familiar with a lot of those names but yeah, filming a couple of episodes wouldn't seem that daunting for Kreuk.

I'm up for some stunt casting but I'm not sure I'd want her though.

Adelaide Kane wouldn't be a terrible choice for Lois Lane.

Which is odd given that Jenna Dewan is 37 and she played Lois' younger sister.

She was cast under a different regime when the show was produced at CBS.

And she hasn't been on the show since the CW move.

As far as we know she's still in charge of the D.E.O. at the mountain facility.
