No Batman or Harley Quinn For Arrow

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19573:]]

Exectutive producer and showrunner of Arrow, Marc Guggenheim, recently attended the Long Beach Comics Expo in Long Beach, CA. 

Guggenheim was part of a panel where he discussed Arrow and working with DC.

Before we dive into Arrow, Guggenheim commented on the 2011 Green Lantern movie noting that he didn’t have control over the film (which explains a lot).

“With ‘Green Lantern,’ we [he and Co-Showrunner Greg Berlanti] really learned the lesson of control. We didn’t have it on ‘Green Lantern.’ It got taken out of our hands at a certain point, and stuff happened. The difference between features and TV is that on TV, as a writer, you’re writing for your life. Every eight business days, there’s a new script due, and as a showrunner, it all goes through your pen. Sometimes what’s getting shot is literally your first draft. At the same time, it’s getting shot.” 

Now on to Arrow, as the series has a darker tone many have compared it to Batman; however, it’s learned the Caped Crusader won’t be appearing any time soon.

We have a great relationship with DC. We sort of navigate with DC which characters in the toy box we have access to. Obviously, ‘Gotham’ has Batman covered… At the same time, DC [recognizes [Green] Arrow doesn’t have a fantastic rogues gallery — we’ve got Count Vertigo, and we’ve used him twice. They know that we need access to other characters, but it’s a give and take. The bottom line is, Batman won’t appear on “Arrow” before he appears on “Gotham,” and “they’ve got about twenty more years to go.”

Guggenheim also answered a fan question about seeing more from Harley Quinn, who was more of an Easter Egg in a Suicide Squad episode of Arrow.

Between “Gotham” and Margot Robbie playing her in the upcoming Suicide Squad film, he stated that the closest they could come is the “wink and a nod” from last season. 

A superhero team spinoff is in the works, which is presently untitled, but Guggenheim offers it isn’t called “The Brave and the Bold.”

It’s also learned that DC has plans for Ted Kord, the second blue beetle, as Arrow wanted to use the character prior to Brandon Routh’s Atom.

Aked if there’s a list of things that can and can’t be used (besides Batman), Guggenheim explained that twice a year they sit down with DC, and each has a list of characters they’d like to use or be used. Katana was a character DC suggested they use. Ray Palmer was originally supposed to be Ted Kord, but DC said, “No, we have plans for that character. How about Ray Palmer?”

Caity Lotz Talks Canary In Arrow/Flash Spinoff; Confirms Firestorm

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19557:]]

In a surprise move, Caity Lotz will be featured in the planned superhero team spinoff of The Flash and Arrow.

Lotz’s fan-favorite character, Sara Lance (aka Canary), was killed off during Season 3 of Arrow, which became a major plot point.

With the announcement that Lotz will now be featured on the new superhero team that is set in the same universe in which she was seemingly killed off, speculation is running wild.

The original report made mention that Lotz may either somehow return as Canary or even play a new superhero all-together.

As fans of Arrow (and Batman) know, the Lazarus Pit can heal the sick and ressurect the dead; so there would be an out for Canary.

While it’s also possible Canary may have faked her yet death again, Lotz recently attended Wizard World Chicago and was asked about the spinoff.

“That’s a good question,” Lotz responded when asked if her character would even be seen again. “So, yeah. Sara Lance definintely died in episode 1 of Season 3.

“Has anybody heard about the spinoff?” Lotz asked the audience. “So there is a new show in development, and I am so excited to finally be able to talk about this. The Atom, Firestorm, my character, and so I guess that is a big thing that is going on. Everyone keeps asking me on the internet; they’re like, ‘Well, you’re dead. How are you going to be on the new show? Is it just going to be flashbacks or are you playing a whole new character? Are you Sara Lance?’

“I would love to tell you” Lotz offered. “But I think they might kill me. How many times have I died already? Sara Lance has died, I think three times. So you never know.”

Lotz does note “my character” which may have been a slip, or she’s just possibly referring to herself.

Lotz also confirms Firestorm, which would mean Robbie Amell is a part of the spinoff (previous details just made mention of Victor Garber playing Dr. Stein).

Brandon Routh is confirmed as Atom, and Wentworth Miller will be playing Captain Cold, in addition to three new DC heroes being a part of the team.

The untitled superhero team series looks to debut next Fall or possibly next mid-season.

Check out more with Caity Lotz from Wizard World Chicago in the following video.

Arrow/Flash Spinoff Casting Call Reveals 3 New DC Heroes

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19556:]]

A spinoff from Arrow and The Flash is currently in development, which will see a team of superheroes formed from new and existing characters.

Brandon Routh is set to play Atom; Victor Garber will play Dr. Stein; Wentworth Miller will play Captain Cold, and Kaity Lotz will also have a role (whether it’s her Arrow Canary role is unknown).

It’s also been said the Arrow/Flash superhero team spinoff will feature three DC Comics heroes who have never been on TV before, and now TV Line may have a description of the characters.

“THE TRAVELER” | Described as a “Han Solo-esque rogue who gets by with his charm, this hero hails from the future, and has journeyed back in time on a secret mission. His razor-sharp wit hides the pain of a man who has lived through serious conflict. He also harbors many secrets, always leaving both his teammates and the audience unsure of his true allegiances.

“FEMALE WARRIOR” | This twentysomething Latina is pretty but unassuming, book smart and socially awkward by day. But by night, when she hears the cry of battle, her fury is ignited and she becomes a fierce warrior — so much so, that sometimes she can become a threat to others.

“MYSTERY HERO” | An African-American male in his twenties will fill the role of a regular, street smart guy who unexpectedly gains powers, and then, as part of the team, regularly quips about the insanity of the situations.

As noted, “The Traveler” could possibly be Booster Gold or Rip Hunter.

“Female Warrior” may be reference to the female Wildcat (or maybe even an Amazon).

The “Mystery Hero” could be Static or Black Lightning.

The Arrow/Flash spinoff has also been said to be adding other characters from the shows (probably Robbie Amell, the other half of Firestorm).

Arrow creators, Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and Marc Guggenheim, are putting the series together, which is expected to debut next season/mid-season.

Stephen Amell Congratulates Supergirl & Recollects First Arrow Image

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19544:]]

Today saw the big reveal for the new CBS Supergirl costume, played by Melissa Benoist.

Stephen Amell took to his Facebook page to congratulate the new look.

Amell also recollected his experience with the Arrow costume and first official image.

The producers of The Flash and Arrow are behind Supergirl, so it’s looking likely that a crossover will eventually happen.

Here’s what Amell had to say:

Just saw the photo of Melissa Benoist as Supergirl on Twitter. Wow. Most importantly – the costume looks awesome. Congratulations to everyone involved. Now… let me take you back and tell you a story.

When Arrow began filming – late winter, 2012 – the very first thing I did after being cast was head for a costume fitting. There was concept art, but the producers had – smartly – left the basics open to interpretation based on who they put in the role.

Several fittings and one defiant, “I’m not wearing army boots, it forces me to run like a business person trying to catch a bus” rant later, we were ready for the exact moment that the Supergirl peeps went through today: The unveiling. And why was this important? Because the year prior a superhero costume picture had leaked and there was a perception – you can debate how accurate it was – that this leak had gotten the production off on the wrong foot.

As a result, any time I was in the suit, I had to wear an overcoat and – I swear to god – a fedora, for fear that paparazzi were lurking about trying to steal our thunder.

Well… the photos were taken and the choice was made. Ironically, the photo we ended up using (me, with my head down in profile) was a shot our director David Nutter insisted on at the last minute just from watching me shift into that stance to stay comfortable.

The photo is examined, approved… given a little panache from the DC team and set for release. I remember everyone being really happy with it and wanting to show it off to people working on the pilot. Which led to one of our producers showing it to Katie Cassidy… She immediately pointed out a glaring problem. The angle of the photo and the placement of my bow made it appear as though I was maybe a little TOO excited about wearing the Arrow suit. She was right. It definitely looked like I had an erection.

Luckily for us… changes were made and the photo erupted online (sorry…) with a fantastic approval rating. We were well on our way.

And that’s the story of why first photos in the costume are important / how we ALMOST became the show about the hooded vigilante with a boner.

Damien Darhk Rumored For Arrow Season 4 Villain

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19487:]]

Arrow may have a new villain by the end of the Season 3 finale.

TV Line is reporting the Arrow Season 3 finale will introduce a “major, formidable, fierce new foe” for Oliver Queen.

It’s said the new villain’s “reign of terror” will continue into Season 4.

According to the report, the mystery character is being referred to as “Damian Dark.”

Note: Some outlets have mistakenly speculated it to be the son of Bruce Wayne, Damien Wayne, but I doubt a ten year old is going to be an opponent on the show for Arrow.

There is a character in the DC Comics with the name Damian Darkh, who is a 20-ish underworld figure who has access to advanced technology and often scraps with the Teen Titans.

Here is the description of the character from wiki:

Baby-faced Damien Darhk was a mysterious, elusive, and dangerous figure. He claimed to be a major player in America’s underworld and certainly had some connection to the criminal organization H.I.V.E. He also seemed to have had access to unique high-tech equipment that has never been used by any known organization. Darhk was considered to be a major criminal by the C.I.A. and F.B.I.; however, their investigations revealed no hard evidence against him. He was a wi-fi fiend, staying in touch with associates by the very latest forms of mass communication. What particularly baffled investigators was his apparent youth; Damien seemed to be in his early twenties yet was already well-established and well-connected.

Marc Guggenheim Talks Vixen Animated Series

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18704:]]

A couple of months ago saw WB announce the new Vixen animated series, which is set in the same universe as Arrow and The Flash.

Now EP Marc Guggenheim sheds some light on the project.

“We’re going to do basically an animated spinoff,” Guggenheim told SciFiNow. “It’s a six-part origin story, but characters from The Flash and Arrow are prominently involved. It’s in the continuity and the world.”

Guggenheim also says Grant Gustin of The Flash and Stephen Amell of Arrow may appear.

“The response has been very favorable,” Guggenheim offered. “I can’t speak for them, but all signs are good.”

It’s also possible that some time down the line Vixen could turn in to a live-action show, which Guggenheim says he is open to.

“If the character resonates with people, that would be wonderful,” said Guggenheim. “I would love to be in a position where CW said to us, ‘Hey, we want a Vixen live-action show.’ We’ll have to see how things play out.”

Vixen is set to debut on the CW’s digital offshoot propery, Seed, in the Fall.

Stephen Amell & Colton Haynes Tease Major Death In Arrow

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19472:]]

Things don’t look good for one presently unknown cast member on Arrow as Stephen Amell and Colton Haynes have teased what looks to be the death of possibly a major character.

“Sometimes real feelings creep into a scene,” Amell tweeted earlier. “Goodbyes are tough. Even when they’re scripted.”

Amell continued on Facebook: “Putting the finishing touches on our 65th episode tonight. It features one of the most emotional, touching and heartfelt scenes we’ve ever produced. Everyone was equal to the task. Long day, but a good one.”

Colton Haynes, who plays Roy Harper, also tweeted similar sentiments: “What a rough night. Probably the most difficult day I’ve had at work in my life. So many emotions all around that couldn’t be controlled.”

Episode 19 is presently being filmed for this season, which aptly enough is titled “Broken Arrow.”

Previous seasons saw characters killed off including Tommy Merlyn, Moira Queen, Canary (though it appears Caity Lotz is coming back somehow), Isabel Rochev and Sebastian Blood.

Any ideas who could be on the chopping block for Season 3?

Arrow / The Flash Superhero Team-Up Spinoff Being Developed

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19394:]]

It’s learned the CW is currently developing a superhero team spinoff series featuring fan-favorite characters from both Arrow and The Flash.

In addition, Deadline states the new spinoff will feature three major DC Comics characters who have never appeared in a TV series.

Set to star in the superhero team spinoff are: Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer (Atom); Victor Garber (Dr. Stein); Wentworth Miller (Captain Cold).

It’s also said that Caity Lotz will star in the series, though it’s unclear how she will fit in as her character died in Arrow. It’s suggested they could somehow bring back Canary or that Lotz could play a new superhero.

The report makes no mention of Robbie Amell, who is the other half to Stein’s Firestorm, but it is stated the project is in early development and additional cast members most likely will be added.

The Arrow/The Flash team spinoff is being put together by Arrow creators Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and Marc Guggenheim, with the series eyed to debut next season/mid-season.

There is no title for the new series as of yet.

No Green Lantern For John Diggle In Arrow

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19202:]]

Bad news for fans of Arrow and David Ramsey that thought John Diggle might be a Green Lantern or even John Stewart.

Showrunner Marc Guggenheim responded to the notion that Diggle might become a Green Lantern following an interview where David Ramsey confirmed talks about it.

Guggenheim rains on everybody’s parade by saying it isn’t happening.

“It’s funny, I’ve spoken to David quite a bit about this issue, I know it keeps coming up,” Guggenheim told MTV. “I spoke to [writer] Geoff Johns at DC after that interview went viral. Basically, John Diggle is now a character in the comics… John Diggle is John Diggle. We’re not being coy and saying John Diggle is someone else, i.e. John Stewart. DC has other plans for that character. We love David, and we love the character of John Diggle that he’s created. We have really cool plans for him… they involve a wedding ring, but they don’t involve a power ring.”

While Diggle may not be a Green Lantern, Guggenheim does tease that current characters may become DC heroes.

“There are two characters who would probably fall into that category,” he said. “Were we to do it, they would be characters from the comics that you already know.”

Arrow’s John Diggle Might Be Green Lantern John Stewart Says David Ramsey

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19073:]]

Fans of Green Lantern, Arrow, and David Ramsey have long speculated that John Diggle may actually be John Stewart.

The fan theory is that when Diggle was in the military, he changed his name (for whatever reason).

Now it’s learned that the theory might not be too far off as David Ramsey has confirmed there are talks that Diggle might become Green Lantern.

Ramsey confirms the Green Lantern possibility in a recent interview (via Screen Rant):

“Is John Diggle John Stewart? I cannot say ‘yes,’ and I cannot say, ‘no.’ I’m serious! I do know that there is serious discussion about whether or not this guy becomes John Stewart. But, I mean, I’ll say this: it is top secret. I’ve asked them and they’re like, ‘we’re working on some stuff.’ If that’s the case, it’s gonna be huge. This is the stuff they want to avoid. I think they don’t want anybody to know yet and they haven’t even told me. But they have told me that they are thinking about it and that they are considering it. But they’re not going to release anything yet. That’s exactly what they told me. Greg Berlanti told me that. Andrew [Kreisberg] and Marc [Guggenheim] have told me that. I haven’t spoken to Geoff Johns about it. But that’s the word from people directly involved in Arrow- that they’re working on something.

“Here’s the truth of it: if I knew, I would tell you I know the answer to that, but I’m not at liberty to tell you that. I would answer like that. I probably wouldn’t tell you anyway, but I would at least tell you that I know. I honestly do not know.”

Cosmic Book News was previously told that plans for Green Lantern in the Arrow universe are underway and that Green Lantern would crossover with The Flash. Just three weeks ago also saw mention there are plans for more spinoffs as well. 

“Now, boy we’ve referenced Ferris Air a lot. It would be really cool to have Green Lantern,” Ramsey added. “Hopefully, that happens. I have no inside information, unless I do.”

Arrow airs Wednesdays at 8pm ET on the CW.

Episode synopsis:

VERTIGO (GUEST STAR PETER STORMARE) RETURNS AND PITS CANARY AGAINST BLACK CANARY – Oliver (Stephen Amell) is thrown by the changes within Team Arrow. He’s used to calling the shots but sees that the team has evolved in his absence and tensions quickly escalate in the lair. Oliver is furious that Laurel (Katie Cassidy) has been going out as the Black Canary and tells her to stop risking her life, but when Vertigo (guest star Peter Stormare) hits the streets again, Laurel goes against Oliver’s wishes and tracks down Vertigo who hits her with a full dose of the drug. Laurel’s biggest fears revolve around her sister Sara (guest star Caity Lotz) so the Vertigo causes her to hallucinate an epic fight between Canary and Black Canary. Meanwhile, Chase (guest star Austin Butler) surprises Thea (Willa Holland), and Roy (Colton Haynes) warns Thea to stay away from Malcolm (John Barrowman). Michael Schultz directed the episode written by Jake Coburn & Emilia Ortega Aldrich (#313).
