Warner Bros. Television has fired Andrew Kreisberg, showrunner and executive producer of Arrow, Supergirl and other popular CW network superhero dramas, after an investigation into multiple allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct against him. "After a thorough investigation, Warner Bros. Television Group has terminated Andrew Kreisberg's employment, effective immediately," the studio said in a statement Wednesday. The DC Comics-inspired dramas Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow make up a large chunk of the youth-oriented CW network's programming. In the article, more than a dozen individuals who had worked with Kreisberg on the Warner Bros. shows described being subjected to and witnessing incidents of inappropriate touching and endemic sexual harassment on-set. He also executive produced the program Vixen and had an overall development deal with Warner Bros. (now terminated).
