That said, there was a little doubt about the future of Black Lightning, if only because it was originally scripted for FOX, and The CW picked it up at the last minute.
Of course, this is all just rumor at the moment, and nothing on either show has been officially confirmed by FOX or The CW.
News on both shows should be announced very soon, however, especially if they are picked up early.
With the existing shows (Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow) all already renewed, it’s a good bet that Black Lightning will join the family in the fall of 2017.
