However, that&#8217;s not all, as while speaking at the TCAs, CW president Mark Pedowitz confirmed that the character would be returning for a second season of her own series.<\/p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, this has led to an influx of rumours that she will ultimately end up helming her own live-action series, and while Pedowitz would neither confirm or deny this, he did raise hopes that she could become a more regular feature, saying, \u201cHopefully, that character could actually spin itself out, if not, maybe join as one of the Legends [Of Tomorrow].\u201d For those thinking that the idea might seem rather far-fetched, he went on to point out,\u00a0\u201cat this moment last year,\u00a0<strong><em>Legends<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0didn\u2019t really exist. So time will take its toll.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, with the developments taking place in the CW-verse, a <em><strong>Vixen<\/strong><\/em> series &#8211; or indeed, a more regular slot on <em><strong>Legends Of Tomorrow<\/strong><\/em>, which judging by these comments seems to have been earmarked for an extended life beyond its initial first season &#8211; wouldn&#8217;t be the most likely thing. The premise of a character being able to take on the abilities of any animal through a magical totem is worlds apart from anything we&#8217;ve seen on the network so far (even if it does sound worryingly like <em><strong>Manimal<\/strong><\/em>), and special effects budget permitting, this is something we could see succeeding.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The air date for <em>Vixen<\/em>: Season Two is yet to be announced.
