Exclusive: Jake Borelli will be departing ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy after seven years on the show, including being a series regular for the past five seasons, Deadline has learned. According to sources, Borelli is in negotiations to return next season for several episodes to wrap up the story of his character, Levi Schmitt.
Amid overall decline in linear ratings, it has become common practice for broadcast networks to ask for financial concessions on long-running series, which naturally become pricier as they age. As a high-end drama series headed into its 21st season with a large cast, most of whom have been on the show for years, Grey’s is expensive. I hear its renewal — like many other broadcast shows’ these days — came with a budget cut.
That is impacting the cast, with established stars faced with a reduction of their episodic guarantees, which means that they may be in fewer episodes next year,...

The alternate reality "Captain Luthor" really being John Henry Irons was a huge twist in Superman & Lois' first season. The character, played by Wolé Parks, has had a recurring presence in the series ever since and donned an impressive suit of armour on several occasions.
He's even earned himself the "Man of Steel" moniker, but a newly revealed photo from Superman & Lois' series finale seemingly confirms John will finally suit up as Steel.
As you'll see in the photo below, graffiti depicts Irons in his trademark armour, albeit with a red cape and Superman's iconic "S" shield on his chest. While this could be little more than an Easter Egg, season 4 may see him finally take on that iconic "Steel" moniker as another of Metropolis' protectors.

Yesterday was a big day for fans of the upcoming ‘Dcu,’ as we’ve gotten a first look at Corenswet’s Superman suit. In the photo, Superman can be seen putting on his bright red boots, with imagery in the background being a nod to an alien attack in the sky.
The costume was met with mixed reviews with several notable complaints, most of them being completely unfounded and had more to do with part of the fandom being unwilling to say goodbye to Snyderverse.
The suit was most often called out for being a downgrade when compared to the suit Cavill wore. Fans often point out that it doesn’t look like advanced civilization made it.

Yesterday marked a significant day for fans eagerly awaiting the upcoming ‘Dcu,’ as we were treated to the first glimpse of Corenswet’s Superman suit. The photo captures Superman donning his vibrant red boots, against a backdrop hinting at an impending alien attack in the sky.
The costume received mixed reviews, with some notable complaints arising. Many of these criticisms seemed unfounded, largely stemming from a reluctance among certain segments of the fandom to bid farewell to the Snyderverse.
The suit drew frequent criticism for being perceived as a step down from Cavill’s attire. Many fans noted that it lacked the appearance of being crafted by an advanced civilization.

Could The CW have one last Arrowverse crossover up its sleeve? Following remarks made by Tom Cavanagh at a convention over the weekend, TVLine has confirmed that the Flash vet will appear in the series finale of Superman & Lois, appropriately titled “It Went By So Fast.”
Cavanagh originally hoped to direct the pivotal episode, having previously helmed the Season 1 finale and Season 3 premiere, but the gig was already promised to frequent Superman & Lois director Gregory Smith. That’s when showrunner Todd Helbing got an idea, one that will leave fans theorizing for months to come.

Despite not being connected to the larger Arrowverse, ‘Superman & Lois’ is easily the best CW superhero show in terms of quality writing. The show did have its ups and downs, especially last year.
After Nexstar acquired CW and the network was bound to be restructured, ‘Superman & Lois’ survived the onslaught during which many shows were canceled. This led to some of the main cast being let go, fewer writers and the episode count was slashed compared to previous seasons. Now after several months of filming the last season of ‘Superman & Lois’ has wrapped filming, ready for the Fall 2024 release date.
Speaking at Fan Expo Philadelphia Tom Cavanagh revealed he is both directing and acting in the final season of ‘Superman & Lois.’

While ‘Superman & Lois’ remains distinct from the broader Arrowverse, it stands out as the CW’s top superhero series due to its strong writing. Despite facing challenges, including changes following Nexstar’s acquisition of CW, the show managed to survive restructuring while other series were canceled.
This resulted in some main cast members being released, fewer writers, and a reduced episode count compared to previous seasons. Now, after months of filming, the final season of ‘Superman & Lois’ has concluded production, gearing up for its Fall 2024 premiere.

Despite being set up in another universe, Superman & Lois is a thrilling tale of Earth’s mightiest DC hero and a world-renowned journalist who is also his love interest. After three successful seasons, the series will be coming to an end with its fourth and final season. Poised to have Lex Luthor as the chief villain, fans can hardly wait.

Originally slated to be part of the Arrowverse, the series will bring back one iconic The Flash actor in its series finale episode. While no other details have been revealed, the addition of the fan-favorite star can help bridge the gap between the Arrowverse and Superman & Lois.

Love or hate the Arrowverse, there's no denying that Tom Cavanagh's performance as the Reverse-Flash was hard to find fault with. As the years passed, The Flash diluted the character by having the actor play multiple versions of "Harrison Wells." However, in the suit, Cavanagh proved himself a truly formidable villain.
His story ended in the Scarlet Speedster's series, but we can look forward to at least one final appearance from the actor in the DC Universe.
Superman & Lois will conclude with its fourth and final season later this year, and unlike Legends of Tomorrow and Batwoman, the show's creative team have received enough notice to craft what we hope will be a satisfying ending.
The question now is, will that ending include an appearance from Eobard Thawne?

The project has a script-to-series commitment at Netflix, meaning if the script is well received, it would trigger a straight-to-series order for what is considered a live-action update of the classic cartoon.
Reps for Netflix, producers Warner Bros. Television and Berlanti Productions declined to comment, as a deal has not yet formally closed.
Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg — who previously adapted Cowboy Bebop for Netflix and High Fidelity for Hulu — are attached to pen the script and exec produce via their Midnight Radio banner’s André Nemec and Jeff Pinkner.

Superman & Lois just wrapped filming it’s upcoming fourth season!
Cast members of the CW series shared on Tuesday (April 23) that it was their final day on set.
The DC Comics series will return to The CW later this year for what will be the DC Comics adaptation’s final season, with 10 episodes.
While the show is returning, it was revealed that budget cuts were being made, causing changes to the cast, including several stars being demoted from series regular.
In February 2024, president of entertainment at The CW, Brad Schwartz, teased that the upcoming season is “going to blow your minds.”
“I am not kidding, this season is going to be one of the best shows on TV,” he said at the CW’s TCA session. “I watched the first episode last night, and it’s gonna make you cry. It’s amazing.”

Fifth in a series on broadcast network series renewals. As the CW transformation’s under new owners Nexstar continues with the addition of sports as well as acquired scripted series and international co-productions, questions are persisting about the fate of the last remaining dramas from the “old” CW.
With Superman & Lois set to end with its upcoming fourth season in the fall, that leaves flagship All American, spinoff All American: Homecoming and Walker. They all film in the U.S., making them more expensive to produce than Canadian-made dramas and come from former CW co-owners (now minority owners) Warner Bros. (All American franchise) and CBS (Walker).
From what I hear, it would be a very challenging business proposition to have all three series continue on the CW. The sobering realization defers from the brighter outlook shared by the CW President of Entertainment Brad Schwartz at TCA in February.

Superman & Lois is returning for a fourth season on The CW in 2024!
The drama series, based on the DC Comics, will be back for one more go around, which The CW’s president says is “going to blow your minds.”
Network president of entertainment Brad Schwartz teased in February 2024 that the final season “is going to be one of the best shows on TV” and the first episode will “make you cry. It’s amazing.”
The superhero show is the final DC Comics series remaining on The CW after the network’s rebrand, and it will be ending after it’s upcoming fourth season, which will premiere in the fall.

The CW’s current slate looks drastically different than it did even just a couple of years ago. Formerly known for its quirky teen drama and superhero staples, the network, under its new owner Nexstar, is now largely focused on unscripted shows, lower-cost “content,” and sports. There are still some scripted projects left at The CW — All American, Walker, Canadian-American co-productions Sullivan’s Crossing and Son of a Critch, the final season of Superman & Lois, and upcoming shows Sherlock & Daughter and Good Cop/Bad Cop. But it definitely doesn’t feel like the same channel that was once home to Riverdale, The 100, Supernatural, and the Arrowverse.

Even though it’s not part of the bigger Arrowverse, ‘Superman & Lois’ stands out as the CW’s top superhero show thanks to its well-written storylines. The series faced its share of challenges, especially last year when Nexstar took over CW and changes were on the horizon. While many shows were canceled during the restructuring, ‘Superman & Lois’ managed to survive. However, just before the season 3 finale, news broke that the show would continue under new leadership, albeit with some budget cuts.
These cuts led to some main cast members being let go, fewer writers, and a reduction in the number of episodes compared to previous seasons. Fans breathed a sigh of relief knowing their favorite superhero show was still alive, but their happiness was short-lived.

Superman has been featured in numerous adaptations across different media, from animated series to live-action productions, providing plenty of entertainment options. One standout project is ‘Smallville,’ a live-action TV series that aired from 2002 to 2011, spanning 10 seasons. Many fans consider ‘Smallville’ to have showcased the best portrayal of a young Superman, portrayed by Tom Welling, and his archenemy, Lex Luthor, played by Michael Rosenbaum.
This year marks 13 years since the show concluded, and during this time, Rosenbaum and the original creators have been busy. They’ve been collaborating on an animated revival of the series, serving as a sequel to the original ‘Smallville.’ Rosenbaum provided an update on the project in a recent interview with Screenrant.

“Because of all the special effects, it could be ready for summer…we feel like it would be wasted in the summer.

In a new interview, Rosenbaum revealed he and Tom Welling were developing an animated series with the original cast and creators of the show that originated in 2001 on the now-defunct WB network.
“All I could share is that it’s a great idea. We have Al [Gough] and Miles [Millar], the creators of Smallville, backing us up,” Rosenbaum said in an interview with Screen Rant. “When it’s the right time, we’d like to go and do this: pitch to Warner Bros. It has to be the right time, and right now is not the right time.”
He continued, “We had the strike, we had a change of executives at DC — one being one of my best friends in the world, James Gunn. When the time’s right,...

Walker is one of the few shows on The CW from an earlier regime, back when the network catered to younger audiences.
Of course, the series skews older than The CW’s typical series, which probably explains why it survived when the network’s younger-skewing fare like Charmed, Dynasty, Legacies, and Nancy Drew all got the pink slip.
Walker, a reboot of the successful Walker, Texas Ranger, has managed to break through as a reboot because it has brought plenty of contemporary storylines to a format that worked well not so long ago.
As we delve into Walker Season 4, the series is at a tipping point because it will be judged more harshly than some other offerings, such as Wild Cards, which has performed admirably as a co-production.
Plenty of details have emerged about Walker Season 4, but we don’t want you to do all the digging for intel.

Just when he thought he was out, they pulled him back in.
Emmy-winning writer Terence Winter is returning to Tulsa King.
The Sopranos veteran is back on board the Paramount+ drama after being the showrunner of its 2022 debut season. The series follows a former mobster, played by Sylvester Stallone, who forms a new crime empire in Oklahoma.
Winter and Tulsa King‘s creator and executive producer Taylor Sheridan famously conflicted about the creative direction of the series. After Winter stepped away, the big question became who was going to take over his gig, given Sheridan’s self-professed preference for remaining hands-on with his shows. Stallone, likewise, has firm opinions about the writing in his projects — having written and co-written the screenplays for many of his hit films over the years — and claims some of the show’s dialogue was his own creation.

There have been countless iterations of Superman in the world of multimedia, all trying to showcase a different perspective and take on the superhero. One of the biggest and most unique among the several properties in which this character is an integral part has to be CW’s Superman and Lois TV series.

Instead of focusing on the extraordinary exploits of the Symbol of Hope, this series focuses more on the personal life of the individual as Clark Kent rather than Superman, which was the reason why many liked the show so much. Although the ratings weren’t something to brag about, they were still respectable enough to not let the show be canceled like it has. And with that, it’s revealed that WB had made this decision because of the upcoming Superman in the Dcu.

Ever since James Gunn was crowned one of the two CEOs and handed over the reins of the DC Universe, everything seems to be changing and going in a completely unexpected direction than what fans were expecting.
While the Guardians of the Galaxy saga helmer is working on his next DC film that would kickstart his DC Universe reboot, Superman: Legacy, other masterpieces are reportedly getting axed as a consequence of the same.
James Gunn’s Superman: Legacy will kick off the new Dcu
These “other masterpieces” notably include one of the most-watched TV series by DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television, Superman & Lois, which concluded the airing of its season 3 on The CW last year in July 2023.

It seems that the decision to cancel Superman & Lois after its fourth season was influenced by James Gunn’s DC Universe, particularly Superman: Legacy.

Considering DC Studios’ efforts to establish a unified DC Universe, the cancellation may not come as a complete surprise. With DC Studios aiming for a unified DC cinematic universe, it’s understandable that having different Superman portrayals across TV and film could get confusing. Superman & Lois was developed by Todd Helbing and Greg Berlanti for The CW network. The show stars Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent/Superman and Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane.

A new Superman-centric television series is reportedly in the works with actor Brandon Routh set to reprise his role from 2006’s Superman Returns.

Brad Schwartz, President of Entertainment at The CW, has “ambitious” goals.
As The CW moves away from only serving young adult audiences towards rivaling the Big Four broadcast networks – ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC – Schwartz knows he needs to find a hit to do that.
This, after all, is the man credited with helping Schitt’s Creek become an Emmy-winning smash.
“We recognize where we’re coming from. We’re the underdogs competing against Titans. But ultimately what we’re striving for is to have everyone stop writing big four networks and start writing big five network. We know it’s going to take some time, but that’s the goal,” he said at the top of his TCA press tour presentation.

The CW met the Television Critics Assn. for the first time since its ownership and brand makeover — and both president Dennis Miller and entertainment president Brad Schwartz came armed with a message: The CW wants to be considered a “Big 5” network, right alongside ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox.
“We have ambitious goals, but we recognize where we’re coming from,” Schwartz said. “We’re the underdog competing against titans. But ultimately what we are striving for is to have everyone stop writing ‘Big 4 networks’ and start writing ‘Big 5.’ We know it’s gonna take some time, but that’s the goal.”

Not only was its traditional episode order reduced, but only five actors would be returning as series regulars, leaving fans to wonder how much of the show’s ensemble cast — including Valdez as Kyle Cushing — would still have a presence on the show.

The past three years have severely impacted the broadcast television landscape.
Following a decade of growth — remember the days of 100 pilots? — the TV landscape on broadcast is experiencing further contraction because of production delays caused by both the pandemic and Hollywood’s historic dual strikes in 2023. The result is fewer pilots, a shift to year-round development and now fewer scripted originals as networks bulk up on unscripted fare, cut costs and continue to see development money shifted toward streaming.
On the leadership front, Frances Berwick now has lone oversight of NBC after Susan Rovner was let go from NBCUniversal as part of a larger restructuring, with ABC (Craig Erwich), CBS (Amy Reisenbach), The CW (Brad Schwartz) and Fox (Rob Wade) continuing with their current executives.
The biggest shift in broadcast is the shortened 2023-24 seasons of scripted fare, production on which was delayed from the traditional summer start to the...

Channing Dungey first joined Warner Bros. TV Group as chairman in late 2020 — right in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic, which made for an interesting first year on the job. Then came the Warner Media-Discovery merger in 2022, and the restructuring that came with it. In 2023, the Hollywood strikes disrupted the business again.
“It’s been a lot of tumult since I’ve been in the role,” Dungey recently reflected to Variety. “I’m hoping — and I’m knocking wood as I say this — that as we round the corner into 2024, we’re behind some of those bigger challenges. I’m sure there will be something new on the horizon, but I’m hopeful that 2024 marks a return to business as usual.”
The entertainment industry remains in flux, of course, with more disruption anticipated this year. But in her own corner of the biz, Dungey said she feels some truly positive momentum.
