Thank God for actor’s blogs, and non-studio-approved bragging.
Over at Bleeding News, they broke the scoop: Actress Stephanie Lemelin took to her blog with the following news:
WOW. Ok… I am beyond thrilled to announce that I was recently cast in the new animated series, YOUNG JUSTICE LEAGUE, based on the famous (and awesome!?) DC Comics. I seriously could not be more excited about being welcomed into this amazing family… what a fantastic way to start the new year! I will be voicing the character of Arrowette (see ridiculously hot avatar below!!! um, could I love her anymore?) as well as several supporting cast members… Due to the extreme popularity of this series, however, that’s about all I can say… for now.
Someone was smart enough to grab a screenshot of the Arrowette avatar she mentions, and you can see it posted above. Not quite sure what I think about all that.
Now of course the studio must have flipped, because all news has been deleted from her blog. And we don’t have any info beyond what she posted (we’ll probably have to wait for Comic-Con to get more). But for now, Bleeding News gets all the questions just right:
Is it more of a Teen Titans (collection of sidekicks and younger superheroes), a Young Avengers (new characters mimicking existing superheroes) of Her-Oes (de-aged characters in a new setting)? No idea.
Could suck, sure; but for now, we’re pretty psyched about the news.
