Come to think of it, there is a Green Lantern Corps movie in the works, with Geoff Johns writing and producing. It's currently scheduled for July 2020. So I doubt we'll get more than winking references to the Corps in the Arrowverse.
News Next Arrowverse Crossover to Include Batwoman
- Thread starter Enterprise is Great
- Start date
The comics Green Lanterns run that started with Rebirth and ended recently (the Cruz/Baz one) was mostly set on Earth too, and it was really good, so frankly I wouldn't mind if that were the case here as well, with an occasional visit to outer space when the budget allows. As an added bonus that way the show could differentiate itself from the planned movies which are likely going to be space based.
That's not happening on that date definitely, Wonder Woman 2 is out in June.
Yeah, but how does an Earth-based GL show differentiate itself from other TV superhero shows? The focus on cosmic-scale space opera is what's come to make the series distinctive. Maybe it could work on Earth-38, where there's already a strong alien presence on Earth. (Although as I mentioned before, I kind of wonder if Earth-1's universe has a more robust Green Lantern Corps that's been preventing all the planetary wars and disasters that created all the alien refugees who've come to Earth-38.)
No, because you're talking about a "blanket decision" that is made once and then rigidly enforced, which is not what is happening.
What is happening is that rights access to any given character is determined only if/when someone asks to use said character in a specific instance.
So, for example, let's say that Caroline Dries asks to use Batman in her Batwoman series; the answer she receives, in either the affirmative or the negative, will apply only to that series, and can be changed at any point.
People are stuck on this idea of character access being restricted across-the-board for every project that isn't a film, but that notion has been repeatedly disproven.
The same way the other shows do, different lead characters.
Both Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz have interesting and these days relevant stories in overcoming great anxiety and great cultural fear, respectively, which would probably work better in an Earth setting anyway, and the "space cops on Earth" angle itself is rather interesting, I'm sure a unique looking show can come out of that easily.
A lot of people think the one of the supporting characters in the character breakdowns for Batwoman sounds like she might be Renee Montoya. If she is Renee Montoya, then I'd say there's a pretty good chance she'll end up The Question eventually.
Oh, OK.
I think that gets overstated. Titans seems to be using mostly the Dick Grayson and Titans related stuff. Mostly Titans ( and by extension the Doom Patrol) The crossover included quite a bit of Batstuff. And I wouldn't be surprised if Mrs. Freeze shows up on Batwoman.OK, I understand.My fear now is that since Robin is a big focus on Titans, it will become "the Batman show" and Batwoman will end limited in how much stuff from his comics they'll be able to use.
There are THREE.
I can't wait for this! Three Jokers and Elseworlds really re-energised my excitement for DC. They promoted this at SDCC with several pieces of imagery, however all has gone quiet and there's not a release date yet.
But FOX probably owns the TV rights to the character under an agreement so either WB/CW would need their permission and usually that mmeans more money changing hands, so it's a we can mention, but not directly show...situation.
^^^
And taht would make more sense as WB has allowed BOTH a feature film and TV version of both Superman and Flash - so 'Batman' wouldn't be an issue IF they had TV rights to the character and hadn't sold such to FOX for Gotham.
^ Gotham does have access to the full Batman property license, but there is no exclusivity tied to it on their part.
