Jessica Queller (Gossip Girl, The Carrie Diaries) and Robert Rovner (Dallas, Bl first joined Supergirl during its first season on CBS as a co-executive producer and consulting producer respectively. With Supergirl co-creator Ali Adler (Glee, The New Normal) signing a new development deal to return to CBS, The CW has promoted Queller and Rovner to the ranks of showrunner.
They'll join Andrew Kreisgberg (Arrow, The Flash) and WB TV mainstays Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter as lead decision-makers on the Melissa Benoist-led superhero show.
It's possible Supergirl season 3 will mark a shift in tone with the leadership change. Or Queller and Rovner could opt to maintain the status quo. We should have a clearer picture at this year's San Diego Comic-Con in July, where the DCTV universe typically rolls out the first trailers for the upcoming Fall season.
