Melissa Benoist

The CW has found it’s Supergirl and she’s… a brunette? The Hollywood Reporter is reporting Glee‘s Melissa Benoist has been cast in the role of Superman’s younger cousin Kara Zor-El for the network’s proposed Supergirl TV-series.

And Supergirl may not be the only DC hero to get her own show as Deadline reports The CW is in talks to spin-off the Atom (Arrow‘s Brandon Routh) into his own show as well.

Ant-Man teasers (original and re-edited)

  • Title: Ant-Man
  • IMDb: link

Long in development hell, Ant-Man starring Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas is finally making his way to the big screen this summer. Hayley Atwell, Evangeline Lilly, Judy Greer, and Corey Stoll also star. The first trailer hit the Internet with mixed reaction from fans but this fan re-edited trailer (which you can find inside) offers a bit more excitement for a project that many are suggesting may be the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first major misstep but we’ll have to wait until July 17th when the film hits theaters to decide for ourselves.

R.I.P. Annie Walker

Covert Affairs

Entertainment Weekly has confirmed that USA Network has cancelled Covert Affairs. Premiering in the summer of 2010 the show starred Piper Perabo as talented but green new agent Annie Walker who grew and blossomed into the Agency’s best field agent over the show’s five year run. Sadly, this ends the show on a cliffhanger with the futures of several characters still in doubt. It also leaves me with only a single USA show that I’m still watching (Graceland) for a network that has been a staple of my regular viewing for years. You will be missed Miss Walker but you gave us a great ride.
