The comic book based television shows are set to return in 2021. The CW has finally announced the premiere dates for 11 of its returning series and three new ones: Walker, Superman & Lois and Canadian pickup Trickster.
COVID-related production delays forced The CW to push its traditional fall launch to 2021. Not all superhero shows will be aired simultaneously. They will be launched as and when they are ready based on staggered production start dates and length of post-production as they require elaborate special effects.
Shows like The Flash, Black Lightning, Riverdale, Batwoman, Nancy Drew will be getting the winter release. Whereas, returning dramas like DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Stargirl and Supergirl, are being held for spring/summer 2021 release.
