Crisis On Infinite Earths was the biggest crossover event in Arrowverse history!
The Flash showrunner Eric Wallace dished recently that he hoped that it would be even bigger.
Eric shared some other DC Comic characters that he would’ve liked to see in the crossover.
“We all got to that moment very early in the process where Marc [Guggenheim] encouraged stuff to say, ‘Hey, if you could see anybody you want to see in these crossovers as a cameo or maybe as a supporting role, or even as a larger role, who would it be?’” he told DiscussingFilm.
“And everybody, it was like kids in a candy store. We all started throwing out crazy ideas. I wanted to see Kevin Conroy because he was my voice of Batman and I love him so much,” Eric continued. “I threw that out and Keto from Legends went, ‘I second that!’ She was very excited because she’s a huge Batman fan.”
“So all these names are being thrown out from other people from the Batman universe to people from the Shazam TV show from the 70’s, which some of us had been familiar with as kids,” he said. “You know, the Shazam and Isis Power Hour? We’re that nerdy. We talked about how we could get actual Super Friends, the voices from the Super Friends cartoon. Everything was on the table. How could we get people from the Zack Snyder movies to kind of crossover and that was just a mad dream.”
Are you ready for the Crisis on Infinite Earths finale event?!
Arrow star Stephen Amell shared the teaser trailer on Twitter on Friday (January 10).
“Everything has to have an ending,” he captioned it.
In the promo, Oliver gets ready for “the ultimate fight†against the Anti-Monitor. “It’s time to get your friends,†he’s told, as the Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman, and more appear.
In Part 4 of the crossover – aka the Arrow episode – Supergirl, Batwoman, and the other Paragons will try to evade the Vanishing Point, although “the futility of the situation is compounded by The Flash’s disappearance,†according to The CW’s official synopsis. “However, hope appears in the form of Oliver, who reveals that he has become something else.†Part 4 also contains the origin stories for The Monitor and Anti-Monitor. It premieres on January 14 at 8/7c.
Part 5 is a special Legends of Tomorrow episode that serves as the Arrowverse crossover event finale. The synopsis reads: “Worlds lived, worlds died. Nothing will ever be the same.†It premieres the same night at 9 p.m.
