‘Supergirl’ Pilot To Screen At Comic-Con, DC Entertainment To Host “Super Hero Saturday Night”

DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television are beefing up their presence at San Diego Comic Con this year with a special Supergirl pilot screening.

Comic Con officially takes place from Thursday, July 9, to Saturday, July 11, but will also feature a preview night on Wednesday, July 8. It is during preview night that DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television will premiere four brand new shows to air as part of the new 2015 Fall season.

Pilot episodes of Supergirl, Lucifer, Blindspot and Containment will premiere at Comic Con on Wednesday night, followed by a new episode of Teen Titans Go! Each new show will also get a panel of their own.

Comic-Con 2015: Lucifer (FOX)

Lucifer will have its very own panel on Friday, July 10, with stars Tom Ellis, Lauren German, Lesley-Ann Brandt and DB Woodside and executive producers, to be held in Room 6BCF.

Blindspot (NBC)

Blindspot star Jamie Alexander is also set to participate in a panel for the show alongside executive producers Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and Martin Gero on Saturday, July 11 in Room 6A.

Containment (The CW)

Containment’s panel will take place on Saturday at 6:15 p.m. in Room 6BCF, with cast members David Gyasi, Christina Moses, Claudia Black, Kristen Gutoskie and Chris Wood and executive producers Julie Plec, Matt Corman and Chris Ord. Fans of The Vampire Diaries might want to attend Containment’s Comic Con debut, if only to get a glimpse at TVD showrunner, Plec, and Wood, who played last season’s big bad on the vampire drama, Kai Parker.

Supergirl (CBS)

Finally, Supergirl will also be featured in Warner Bros. Television & DC Entertainment’s “Super Hero Saturday Night” at Comic Con. The likely three-hour event will include another screening of the Supergirl pilot followed by a cast and producers Q&A. Stars and producers of DC’s other successful shows, Arrow, The Flash and Gotham will also be in attendance to (hopefully) show some clips and tease the new seasons. There will also be a Q&A with the cast and creative minds behind the Arrow/The Flash (#Flarrow) spinoff, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and a look at Vixen, a digital series. Super Hero Saturday Night will take place Saturday, July 11, at 8 p.m. in Hall H, and is a must for any hardcore DC television fan.
