The CW has announced their 2019-2020 schedule — you can find the whole thing on KSiteTV — and next year, Batwoman will be joining the network mix.
The new season also includes another move for Arrow for its final run of 10 episodes.
Look for Arrow to air Tuesdays at 9PM coming out of The Flash.
The CW also released an official description for Season 8. It’s not very spoilery and it includes all of the characters from the season finale as part of the team, but here you go. Also, The CW’s Mark Pedowitz has revealed that an Arrow retrospective covering the 8 seasons of the show will be seen next season in addition to the ten episodes of Season 8.
After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the North China Sea. He returned home to Star City, bent on righting the wrongs done by his family and fighting injustice. As the Green Arrow, Oliver successfully saved his city with the help of his team including former soldier John Diggle (David Ramsey), computer-science expert Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), former protégé Roy Harper (Colton Haynes), street-savvy Rene Ramirez (Rick Gonzalez), metahuman Dinah Drake (Juliana Harkavy), brilliant inventor Curtis Holt (Echo Kellum) and Earth-2 Laurel Lance (Katie Cassidy). In the wake of discovering what his future holds, Oliver will find himself pit against his most challenging battle yet, one that will leave the multiverse hanging in the balance. In Arrow’s final season, Oliver Queen is forced to confront the reality of what it means to be a hero. Based on the characters from DC, ARROW is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “Riverdale”), Beth Schwartz (“DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”) and Sarah Schechter (“The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “Riverdale”).
