Is Hawkwoman Still A Possibility For Krypton?

At last summer’s Comic-Con International in San Diego, in addition to the announcement that Adam Strange was coming to the upcoming Syfy television series Krypton, there was news that DC Comics character Hawkwoman was also on the way…

…and then we heard nothing more.

Following the Krypton panel at the Television Critics Association press tour, we asked Krypton Executive Producer Cameron Welsh if Hawkwoman is still on the table for the show.

“Absolutely,” he told us in the scrum. “Like we say, the door is open. And that’s why we’re so fortunate on this show, working with DC and having Geoff Johns involved, because we have a lot to play with.”

During the panel itself, both Johns and Executive Producer David S. Goyer touted how Krypton is a “gateway” into the DC science fiction universe. But that’s not all.

“Because the Phantom Zone figures into this show, which means we can definitely go into other times and other planets eventually. Even the inclusion of Adam Strange ‑‑ that should to tip you off that it’s not just going to be set on Krypton,” Goyer said.

“If the fans have read it in Mystery in Space, it will probably end up in our show,” Johns added. “We were talking about the Omega Men earlier. Like, any of these characters will eventually show up in Krypton.”

Krypton premieres March 21 on Syfy. Find more of KryptonSite’s coverage of the show here!
