January 12, 2015: Berlanti Says "Supergirl" Casting Announcements Coming Soon

Supergirl During a round table Q&A session at yesterday's Television Critics Association press tour, "Supergirl" executive producer Greg Berlanti answered a few questions about the upcoming TV series...

    Question: Anything you can say about Supergirl and what the tone of that show is and also if we're going to hear about casting soon?

    Greg Berlanti: I hope you're going to hear about casting soon or we're not going to be able to make the pilot! I would say, tonally closer to Flash than Arrow. That's probably the best way to say it.

    Question: Do you mean it'll be more romantic?

    Berlanti: Well the nature of the character is a bit, and who we have in her life and who we're surrounding her with. Also, tonally, I thought of those kind of characters as [strongly] DC Universe and I'm sure Geoff [Johns] would agree. And they both died in Crisis of Infinite Earths! So they're similar.

    Question: Is there crossover potential for Supergirl with Arrow or The Flash?

    Berlanti: So much has to go right for us to be able to make a great show. Again, I think of myself as like if I were watching them, I would want to see that. But we have to get so many things right to make a good show and so much of it is luck, unfortunately.
