Arrowverse Crossover Reveals Elseworlds and Monitor

New details are learned about the upcoming Arrowverse crossover that introduces Batwoman, as the official title is revealed to be Elseworlds.

In addition, The CW has announced the casting of the Monitor, a.k.a. Mar Novu, with LaMonica Garret (Designated Survivor) playing the character.

The Monitor was a big part of the Marv Wolfman and George Pérez DC Comics Crisis On Infinite Earths storyline, so it may be safe to assume the Arrowverse Elseworlds crossover may involve some sort of threat to the multiverse as well. Maybe the Anti-Monitor will be the villain?

The description for the Monitor on the crossover offers: an extraterrestrial being of infinite power.

The CW also announced that George Perez will illustrate a sketch of the Monitor who plays a prominent role in the crossover’s story.

The three-night Arrowverse crossover kicks off Sunday, Dec. 9 with The Flash followed by Monday, Dec. 10 with Arrow, and concludes Tuesday, Dec. 11 with Supergirl.

Stephen Amell returns as Green Arrow, Grant Gustin is back as The Flash, Melissa Benoist plays Supergirl, Tyler Hoechlin will be featured as Superman, with Ruby Rose as Batwoman, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, Cassandra Jean Amell as Nora Fries, and Jeremy Davies cast in the role of Dr. John Deegan, a doctor at Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane who might be crazier than the inmates he treats.
