The CW’s Amazon Casting Now, No Plans for Batman Show

With Warner Bros.’ plan to have a Justice League film in theaters by 2015, The CW made sure the new series wouldn’t interfere. “We worked carefully with Warner Bros. to make sure Warner Bros. theatrical was onboard so we were able to get it done. You want to work carefully with your studio to make sure that it works and that it doesn’t interfere with their projects.”

Pedowitz also says it’s possible that Arrow and Amazon might be in the same ‘universe.’ “I think they all could exist in the same world, but whether they do or they don’t is depending on what the showrunner wants to do.”

Even though it would appear the stars are aligning for the potential new series, a pilot still won’t be comissioned for a while. “If we get the right script and the right casting, we’ll go right forward to pilot.”

With Wonder Woman potentially getting her own series and the Superman series Smallville having wrapped up, that leaves just one of the DC Universe’s Trinity without a CW TV show – Batman. Pedowitz shot down all of our hopes by saying there are currently no plans for a Batman TV show.
