It's official: The CW's Arrowverse will return over the first two months of 2021. As production resumes in Vancouver, the network has announced premiere dates for Batwoman Season 2, The Flash Season 7, Black Lightning Season 4 and Superman and Lois Season 1.
Batwoman will arrive first on Sunday, Jan. 17 at 8 pm ET/PT, while The Flash, Black Lightning and Superman and Lois drop in February. Black Lightning will premiere on Feb. 8 at 9 pm ET/PT, following new episodes of All-American. The Flash and Superman and Lois will air back-to-back on Tuesdays starting Feb. 23 at 8 pm ET/PT. Supergirl and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will not return until midseason.
January will also see the premiere of Walker, The CW's reboot of the original Walker, Texas Ranger series, on Thursday, the 21st at 8 pm ET/PT. The new show will star Jared Padalecki in his first post-Supernatural appearance on the network. He will be joined by his wife Genevieve Padalecki, who plays the late wife of Sergeant Cordell Walker.
In addition to these major Arrowverse returns, Two Sentence Horror Movies will be back on Tuesday, Jan. 12 alongside Tricksters, a Canadian supernatural drama that will be rebroadcast on The CW. Tricksters follows "Jared, an Indigenous teen struggling to keep his dysfunctional family above water, but when he starts seeing strange things -- talking ravens, doppelgängers, skin monsters -- his already chaotic life is turned upside down." Likewise, Charmed will return on Sunday, Jan. 24 at 9 pm ET/PT.
