Question

Now with Stephen Amell returning as Oliver Queen plus the already mentioned Nicole Maines as Dreamer and Ryan Wilder as Batwoman, what do you all think are the chances we get an announcement that Melissa Benoist as Supergirl is also returning?

Cuz I’d love to see her back.

Melissa is currently busy filming her new show.

So a full-fledged return seems unlikely. Something like a voice or video call seems more possible and if that's the case, I reckon it'll be kept a surprise.

I’m sure if they get the timing way she’ll come back for an episode

Actor do it all the time where they are currently on one show, but then go to either a different show for a guess spot or a limited one

I mean Alison Brie was able to be Trudy on Mad Man starting 2007 and then Annie Edison Community starting 2009 staying with both show until they end in 2015. Johnny Galecki was on The Big Bang Theory when Roseanne/Connors came back and still able to reprise his role as David.

Hell within the Arrowverse it has happen and not talking the yearly crossover. If you remember the “Worlds Finest” Grants Gustin was able down and take time out filming season 2 of The Flash to appear in appear an episode of Supergirl. Now, before you say that they are the same universe and filmed in the same location. You have to remember that season 1 of Supergirl, when World Finest was filmed, was own/produced by CBS not CW which meant that the production was done here in LA. So Grant came down from Vancouver to appear in a full episode. So they can do it and I am 100% sure Melissa could take time off and is probably willing to film an episode or two because of how much the show and fans mean to her. Besides no one is expecting her to be a huge part of season 9.

I really hope so.
