Oliver Queen's son is coming to the CW -- but he won't be his son, according to ComicBook. Reports indicate that Connor Hawke will be appearing in an upcoming episode of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, but with major changes to the character.
ComicBook's report, which they say was confirmed by CW's parent company Warner Bros., is that the network is currently casting for an "African-American or biracial male" to play the Hawke character. The character is described as someone who puts "on the uniform of a missing hero who once stood for justice and hope". The report indicates that unlike comic books, Connor Hawke will not be the son of Oliver Queen and Sandra Hawke.
DC's Legends of Tomorrow is scheduled to debut in early 2016.
Supergirl & Other DC Shows May Not Arrive on Netflix & Hulu For Years
Time Warner, the company that owns DC Entertainment and is a partial owner of The CW, is considering changing its current streaming distribution strategy. According to the New York Times, Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes told analysts the company is considering extending the time period between when new seasons of DC shows air and when they are available for streaming, potentially not making them available until several years after they first air instead of the usual 12 month delay.
This move would potentially help cable providers retain customers as more viewers become cord cutters, cancelling cable subscriptions and watching TV solely through streaming services. They would continue to encourage cable and satellite packages to DC fans by making full seasons available through on-demand video options, as opposed to just the five most recent episodes.
There is still no information about how this move would impact the season pass streaming options that sites like Amazon, Vudu and iTunes offer. This change could affect the existing DC shows currently airing: Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Gotham and, iZombie as well as the numerous other properties in development including 2016s highly anticipated shows Legends of Tomorrow, Lucifer and Preacher. This decision will have a larger impact on the DC shows still in development, since the shows currently airing have existing streaming deals. Its possible those terms will be renegotiated, or they may simply leave the existing shows on Netflix as is and decline to add any subsequent seasons.
The streaming rights to these series are a smaller battle in the greater war between media models, and a clear attempt to curb the growing power of Netflix. It is interesting to compare Time Warner and Marvel, with the latter fully embracing the streaming service, creating exclusive content and consistently adding new seasons of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to Netflix almost immediately after the seasons end.
The cable provider industry is often viewed as both outdated, and holding these ultra-popular shows hostage will not endear the cable companies to viewers. However for many DC fans eager to watch their favorite shows, this may be enough motivation to continue their subscriptions.
Supergirl not being on Hulu seems to be a CBS thing though, since no other currently airing show of theirs is on there.Not surprised about Super Girl, not even on Hulu.. Idiots

Could be a fun show, so I'm not against it yet. And we can't trust NBC with a real DC show.
Yeah, NBC had Constantine and the David E Kelly Wonder Woman show, so they're 0 for 2.
