Now that Arrow officially managed to kick off its third season with a shocking introductory episode, and The Flash managed to crush in the ratings against many of its opponents on Tuesday night, the CW has begun to think about expanding its comic book world. No, we’re not kidding. Warner Bros. TV, DC Entertainment and The CW are in talks to bring a third DC Comics character to the network.Mark Pedowitz recently explained that discussions were ongoing, but that nothing has been solidified, yet. Or, at least, he’s staying mum about who the superhero character can be. Here’s the official quote. “There are discussions going on, but I can’t tell you what they are.”
The quote was buried into an Arrow article over at Buzzfeed, which notes that it is the success of The CW’s other two superhero dramas that is really propelling the new idea forward. So, Flash, you need to keep pulling in high numbers so the studio can officially move forward with this third project and we can learn which character may land another primetime slot.
