“We’re on the second draft of a script, and we just closed the deal on a writer,” Ramsey said. “I’m not sure I can say her name, so I won’t, but we’re very close to submitting our second draft.”
This is a surprise given the Arrowverse’s seemingly impending conclusion with the upcoming final season of The Flash, which is currently the only original Arrowverse show that’s left on the network.
Justice U will reportedly center around Diggle (Ramsey) as he looks to recruit five young metahumans to go undercover as freshmen at a prestigious university. There, he will oversee their education while also training them to become the next set of major superheroes.
