"racist and misogynistic". right. see the three lines above. they weren't either of those things. but, whatever. he won't be back on CW, ever.DH wrote:“The Flash” Showrunner Talks Sawyer’s Exit
Not long ago actor Hartley Sawyer was fired from the DC Comics TV series “The Flash” following some racist and misogynistic tweets from his past resurfacing.
It was a pretty clean exit too, both showrunner Eric Wallace and star Grant Gustin issued damning statements about those comments which indicates Sawyer, a regular for the fourth through sixth seasons of The CW series, won’t be coming back even in a guest starring capacity.
Speaking with EW, Wallace has now explained the character’s absence from the show, with comments seeming to suggest that while Sawyer may be gone, his Ralph Dibney/Elongated Man character could well return:
“[We’re] going to treat it like we would if we were writing a comic book graphic novel. We’re giving the Elongated Man a bit of a rest for while. But we will leave the door open. I’m not saying by any means that it’s the end of the character. In fact, quite the opposite. We just don’t know when he will return, or in what form he will return.”
So he’s being shelved for the near future. The character’s meta-human powers means he can change his appearance and so switching out another actor will be done in order to quickly wrap up his storyline for now:
“Ralph is a guy who can change faces and his appearance in many ways. Without giving any spoilers away, there are a couple of ways that we can have Elongated Man still appear in at least one episode this season to wrap that storyline up, that gets us what we need and still allows fans to say goodbye to the character, at least for the indefinite future.”
Natalie Dreyfuss’ Sue Dearborn character isn’t being cut as a result of the exit, the character will return “more than once this year, even without the Elongated Man”.
The CW released the first trailer for the upcoming seventh season at DC Fandome over the weekend. Sadly its not very revealing as it likely consists entirely of scenes from the 20th episode of the sixth season. That episode was 90% complete with one day of filming left when production shut down.
The last two episodes for the season were abandoned and story elements have been retooled to serve as the start of the show’s seventh season which begins filming imminently in Vancouver ahead of a January 2021 launch.
The first season was on DC Universe, with a cut down version edited to allow commercials airing on the CW a day later. Starting next season it will only be on the CW, as DC Universe is pretty much dead.TC wrote:what do you mean "exclusively"? where is it now?
Technically if you watched the Crisis crossover in the Arrowverse you have seen it briefly, as a clip was used when Oliver was re-establishing the multiverse in the final episode. Stargirl was on Earth 2.TC wrote:that explains why i have never heard of it or seen it.
