Calista Flockhart Will Return As Cat Grant For SUPERGIRL Season 2 In A Reduced Capacity
With Supergirl's moving from Los Angeles to Vancouver, fans have been wondering what that would mean for Calista Flockhart's involvement. Well, Cat Grant will return, but don't expect to see much of her...
One of the biggest unknowns about season two of Supergirl on The CW has been whether or not Calista Flockhart will return as Cat Grant. After all, production has moved from LA to Vancouver and the budget has been slashed, so her future with the series has very much been left up in the air, especially as we recently learned that Kara Danvers will have a new boss when the show returns.
Deadline however has now confirmed that Flockhart will be back, albeit in what they call a "reduced capacity." Instead of a being a series regular, the actress will be a recurring guest star in season two.
That obviously means we'll see a lot less of Cat, a shame considering how great many of her scenes with Kara and Supergirl were. Flockhart lives in LA and didn't want to have to uproot her family by moving to Vancouver, but the trade reveals that a compromise has now been reached and that, "Flockhart would do as many scenes as she could possibly do, likely banking material for multiple episodes in one trip north. I hear she would be paid per her original series regular contract."
It will be good to see Cat still around every now and again anyway, something emphasised by Supergirl executive producer Andrew Kreisberg. "Supergirl wouldn’t be Supergirl without the amazing Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant. We are so excited Calista has agreed to continue on the show when she can. We and the audience love to see her on screen." Are you guys glad that Flockhart is returning?
