Rumours suggest that the move comes alongside a cut to the show's budget after a costly first season and it's being said that the production of the show will now also move entirely, from Los Angeles in California, to Vancouver in Canada.

The superhero series will now sit alongside hugely successful DC shows Arrow, The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow, all of which have been on The CW since their conception and all of which have been renewed by the network.

Producer Ali Adler told The Hollywood Reporter that a second season of the show had already been planned and that the first season would end as if it were to return.

She explained: "Season two is going to be more reflective of their past and how they're going to change their future as a result of it in a really emotional way. We definitely want to continue making more of this show."

Meanwhile, another DC show - Powerless - has been picked up by NBC.

As the first comedy series set in the universe of DC Comics, we'll meet Emily (Vanessa Hudgens), who's described as "a spunky young insurance adjuster specialising in regular-people coverage against damage caused by the crime-fighting superheroes."

Teased as becoming a "cult 'hero' in her own right... Even if it's just to her group of lovably quirky co-workers", she'll be forced to navigate "her normal, everyday life against an explosive backdrop", whilst she "might just discover that being a hero doesn't always require superpowers."

Danny Pudi, Alan Tudyk and Christina Kirk will all also star in the series.
