CBS confirmed the crossover in a press release with this information:
The Flash is speeding to National City! THE FLASH star Grant Gustin, in his role of Barry Allen/The Flash, will cross over to SUPERGIRL in an episode to be broadcast Monday, March 28 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Details of the episode will be announced at a later date.
CBS has found theirSupergirl. Reports incdicate that Glee star Melissa Benoist, will take the role of Kara-Zor-El, Superman's cousin who also escaped the death of Krypton and found her way to Earth.
Born on the planet Krypton, Kara Zor-El escaped amid its destruction years ago. Since arriving on Earth, she's been hiding the powers she shares with her famous cousin. But now at age 24, she decides to embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be.With their sister network, The CW's, success with Arrow and The Flash, it looks like CBS wants a piece of the DC pie. Let's just hope it pans out better than Constantine.
Greg Berlanti is on the cover of Variety with his cross channel superheroes, The Flash and Supergirl. We love having so many DC heroes on TV, but all I want to see is a team-up episode. Do you think CBS and The CW can pull it off?
We hope so, because this would be awesome:
The recently rumored Supergirl TV show has officially been picked up by CBS. Arrow and The Flash creator, Greg Berlanti will team up with Chuck producer Ali Adlerto to make the show about Superman's Kryptonian cousin, Kara Zor-El.
If you're keeping score that means DC has a show on every network channel, except ABC (owned by Disney). Marvel may have the silver screen, but DC is taking over our living rooms.
