‘Batwoman’ And ‘Superman and Lois’ Crossover Not Moving Forward Due to COVID-19

The Batwoman & Superman & Lois crossover cancelled at The CW.

According to an interview with TV Line, Batwoman showrunner Caroline Dries has revealed that the previously announced Batwoman and Superman and Lois crossover will no longer be happening. In the article it explained:

 According to Batwoman showrunner Caroline Dries, that also means Kara Danvers likely won’t be dropping by Gotham before Supergirl wraps this season. “We’re not really able to cross over because physically, we can’t cross crews due to the fear of exposure to COVID,” Dries explains. “So if Supergirl weren’t ending this year, I would say there would be more of a possibility. But I’m afraid that at least this year, we’re not going to be able to tap into that dynamic.”

Javicia Leslie in this article also talked about a crossover she would have liked to do with the cast of Black Lightning.

“I’m so heartbroken about the COVID situation because I know that it’s Black Lightning‘s last season, and I would have loved to do a crossover with them. Nafessa [Williams] and Jordan [Calloway] are really good friends of mine, and it would have been great to play with them and be superheroes all on the same show. That would have been epic,” Leslie tells TVLine, noting that she’d still like to stage a crossover when it’s safe to do so.

While we will not be getting your typical crossover this year we can still expect a mini crossover across Batwoman, Superman and Lois, and The Flash with the previously announced return of David Ramsey as John Diggle/Green Lantern appearing in 1 episode in each individual show. No details have been announced on what episodes those will be for either of the series.

Batwoman will return this Sunday January 17th at 8PM EST and Superman and Lois will debut on February 23rd at 9PM EST.
