The CW Spring and Summer 2020 Schedule; Kim Fields Joins Netflix Sitcom
The CW Network announced premiere dates for the broadcast debut of the brand new DC Universe series Stargirl, the second season of summer drama In the Dark and the seventh and final season of The 100. New series Stargirl, starring Brec Bassinger, Luke Wilson and Amy Smart, will make its CW debut on Tuesday, May 12 at 9:00pm ET/PT, one day after it makes its digital debut on the DC Universe subscription service (Monday, May 11). On Tuesday, May 26, Stargirl will move one hour earlier to the 8:00pm time period for the remainder of its season. The 100 will begin its seventh and final season on Wednesday, May 20 at 8:00pm ET/PT. The second season of In the Dark, starring Perry Mattfeld, will premiere on Thursday, May 28 at 9:00pm ET/PT.
The new DC Universe drama series Stargirl follows high school sophomore Courtney Whitmore (series star Brec Bassinger, Bella and the Bulldogs, School of Rock, The Goldbergs) as she inspires an unlikely group of young heroes to stop the villains of the past. This new drama reimagines Stargirl and the very first superhero team, the Justice Society of America, in an unpredictable series. The series focuses on the character that started creator Geoff Johns' career as a comic book writer when he created her in 1999, lovingly inspired by his late sister who was killed in a 1996 plane explosion. The series stars Brec Bassinger, Luke Wilson, Amy Smart, Trae Romano, Cameron Gellman, Yvette Monreal, Anjelika Washington, Meg DeLacy, Neil Jackson, Jake Austin Walker, Christopher James Baker and Hunter Sansone.
The one and only Kim Fields (The Facts of Life, Living Single) is joining the cast of the upcoming Netflix sitcom The Upshaws, which also stars the executive producers Mike Epps and Wanda Sykes. Fields will (hilariously) play Regina, Epps' high school sweetheart. Mike and Wanda bring their distinct voices to this multi-camera comedy that centers on a working-class African American family in Indiana struggling to make it work and make it right without the blueprints to do it. More details are still to come, including the premiere date, so stay tuned.
