Now a normal person would wait until at least Arrow ended to start making main cast predictions, but not me, I want to be as wrong as possible, though last time I tried to predict the main cast of Arrow S8 I did correctly predict everyone, just added one or two or five characters. But ranked in Descending order of how bad an idea it is for me to start this right now, here are my main cast predictions for The Flash Season 7, Supergirl Season 6, Legends Season 6, Black Lightning Season 4, Batwoman Season 2, Superman & Lois Season 1 and Green Arrow and the Canaries Season 1 (it will be in the same format as my previous predictions btw)

People Confirmed

 * 1) Clark and Lois
 * 2) Matthew and Ethan: Clark and Lois’s sons (one of Gothel is almost certainly named Jonathan), I don’t actually have any theories yet but I thought I might as well explain them.

Wild Prediction

 * 1) Perry White: He’s one of the few Superman mythos characters who hasn’t shown up yet, but he’s still Clark and Lois’s boss, he’ll probably be in it.
 * 2) Lex Luthor: A bit more of a stretch but it seems Jon Cryer is back as a recurring character on Supergirl and he’s the most popular Superman villain, I think he’ll join.
 * 3) James Olsen: No, I don’t actually think he has a chance, just throwing out some characters who could technically join.
 * 4) J’onn: See above.

People Confirmed

 * 1) Laurel+Dinah+Mia

Wild Guesses

 * 1) Bianca Bertinelli: She’s the only other character we actually know will show up in the backdoor pilot, a pretty safe bet.
 * 2) William: Mia’s brother, one of the most important characters to the flash forwards, safe bet.
 * 3) Connor: Major flash forward character.
 * JJ: His story wasn’t really finished this season, pretty good chance to see him in this (and death strokes seem to be roaming around in the promos).
 * Zoe: I know, I know, I guessed her last time, but she’s still a future Canary and the one emotional moment Rene had all season is completely ruined if she doesn’t come back to life.
 * 1) Rene: I don’t actually think he’ll show up outside of a couple of recurring appearances, but y’know, there’s a chance.
 * 2) Diggle: Same for Rene, but probably less likely.
 * 3) Lyla: See above.

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow

 * 1) Sara: I highly doubt she’ll leave anytime soon.
 * 2) Gideon: As long as the Waverider stays she’ll still be here.
 * 3) Mick: Everyone loves him, he’s fun, not leaving.
 * 4) Nate/Charlie/Ava: All of them are similarly likely to stay on, none have any perceivable reasons to leave.
 * 5) Constantine: Basically in the same boat as Nate, Charlie and Ava but it's possible he might leave once Astra is dealt with.
 * 6) Tala’s Character: No clue why she would want to leave but also no clue who she is.
 * 7) Mona: I say there’s a 50/50 chance she leaves, she wasn’t credited in Crisis and Ramona isn’t in the PR but she is definitely in the season.
 * 8) Gary: No, he isn’t getting promoted if he isn’t a main this season, but I need at least 10 characters here okay?
 * 9) Behrad: Basically the same as Gary, gives me some wiggle room too.
 * 10) Astra: No chance of coming back, but might as well put her here.

The Flash

 * 1) Barry: Cause duh.
 * 2) Iris: Almost as certain as Barry.
 * 3) Ralph: No reason to leave yada yada yada, up this high cause some other people have tiny reasons to leave.
 * 4) Cisco: I mean it's possible his arc could end by the end of the season?
 * 5) Cecille: As long as Joe is here so will she, but has a tiny chance of sticking around longer.
 * Joe: Old mentor dudes eventually have to leave, but he probably won’t.
 * 1) Caitlin/Frost: A slightly bigger chance her arc might end here, but probably not.
 * 2) Wells: Cavanaugh has to leave eventually… right?
 * 3) Allegra: Seems to have a big role this season, getting the same treatment Ralph and Cecille got in S4.
 * 4) Kamilla: Same as Allegra but a slightly smaller chance because she is tied to a slightly less likely to return character.
 * 5) Eva McCullough: I don’t think she’ll return, but I haven’t met her yet.
 * 6) Sue Dearbon: I think she’ll probably recur next year but if the main cast is a bit smaller than predicted she might get promoted.

Supergirl

 * 1) Kara: Well duh.
 * 2) Alex: Deuteragonist, not leaving.
 * Nia: Okay this list is seeming weirdly similar to the Flash one now.
 * 1) Kelly: Tied to Alex, not leaving.
 * 2) Brainy: Doesn’t seem to be leaving for the future but he probably will eventually.
 * 3) Lena: I don’t think she’s leaving, but she’s probably the main antagonist of the season so she might.
 * 4) J’onn: I just, have a weird feeling about him, I think he’s staying still but I dunno.
 * 5) Andrea: I actually don’t think she’s coming back but of everyone else I think she has the best chance.
 * Eve: I think her story will be over after this season, but I like her so I’m giving her a boost.
 * Dey: Strikes me as a one season character but Supergirl hates having a shrinking main cast for some reason.
 * Lex: Cause the show always has one more regular than the last I’ll put him here since he’s the only possible promotion, but I doubt it’s him.

Batwoman
I don’t think the main cast will change that much, I feel like the rankings for how likely every character is to return is self-evident so no comments yet.
 * 1) Kate
 * 2) Luke
 * 3) Mary
 * 4) Jacob
 * 5) Sophie
 * 6) Alice
 * 7) Mouse: Probably not, but the only recurring character with a chance

Black Lightning
The main cast ain’t changing, not a chance, but here’s the ranking anyway with a handful of guests thrown in for fun.
 * 1) Jefferson
 * 2) Anissa
 * 3) Jennifer
 * 4) Lynn
 * 5) Gambi
 * 6) Henderson
 * 7) Tobias
 * 8) Khalil
 * 9) Odell: the only non-main with a chance, but probably not.
 * 10) Lala: I like Lala, no other reason.
 * 11) Jace: Eh, maybe I guess?
 * 12) Brandon: Will recur next year, but probably not a main.
