In this edition of DC Round-Up, there’s intel on crossover elements and more.
Entertainment Weekly got scoop on the implications of the Lazarus Pit for Thea and Sara on Arrow…
Does what Malcolm said on Arrow mean Sara has to kill Thea? — Hillary
Scary, right? But, to be fair, Malcolm was the mastermind behind her death. “He’s not afraid of her because, in his mind, he killed her once, he can kill her again,” John Barrowman says. “But he doesn’t know what she’s come out of the pit with. Everybody comes out of the pit different. People come out with a bit of every soul that has been put in the pit before. Some parts of those souls take over. Thea’s got a bloodlust. Damien Darhk’s got something else. What will Sara come out with?” We all caught that Darhk mention, right? Okay, good.
Additionally, Stephen Amell spoke with GreenArrowTV about this year’s upcoming crossover with The Flash…
“Last year was designed so that if you were a fan of one show or a fan of the other show, you could enjoy 108 of Flash and 308 of Arrow independent of one another. It’s not the case this year. If you put them back to back on one night, they would run like one two-hour episode of television,” Stephen told a group of reporters tonight.
“In fact, most of the Flash episode takes place in Star City, and most of the Arrow episode takes place in Central City. We have a common villain, which was not the case last year, and just in general, we’ve done an excellent job of weaving not just two shows, but three shows together. As always, it was logistically challenging, but I think when they’re finished… whenever that is, because there’s little pieces here and there to grab… I think these crossover episodes standing together will probably be, in my mind, the pinnacle achievement for both shows,” he continued…
TVLine talked to the stars of The Flash about Wells 2.0…
WELL, WELL, WELLS…. | The episode’s other big reveal came in the very final moments, when Earth-Two’s Dr. Harrison Wells (played by Tom Cavanagh) arrived in our world, having traveled through the “stabilized” breach based out of S.T.A.R. Labs.
“Shock, confusion, fear” are just some of the emotions evoked by the arrival of this other Wells, says series lead Grant Gustin. Versus the S.T.A.R. Labs founder that Barry thought he knew, but as actually a time-traveler in disguise, “It’s not the same guy,” Gustin notes. “It’s the actual guy that Barry always idolized and looked up to, but from a different world.”
Because this Dr. Wells is the real McCoy, “Barry is wanting to trust him… and in a way is quicker to trust him than he was to trust Jay [Garrick],” Gustin says. Earth-Two’s resident genius is not without his flaws. “He’s less of a bad guy and more of a douche bag,” Gustin quips. Adds Cavanagh, “It wasn’t written that way, but that’s how I decided to do it — more brusque and arrogant…. [He] is a lot less about ‘togetherness.’” As such, Cavanagh expects “a lot of vitriol directed my way this season, and that’s fine.”
All told, “It’s a very interesting relationship,” Gustin previews. “We’re shooting [Episode] 9 now and the layers are still getting peeled back.”
Also, Entertainment Weekly got scoop on Grodd’s return…
Is there anything you can tease about Grodd’s return to The Flash? — Samuel
It’ll be an action-packed hour, “in which Caitlin plays Fay Wray to Grodd’s Kong,” teases EP Andrew Kreisberg…Danielle Panabaker expands: “In season 1, you got to see a tiny bit of her relationship of Grodd. You’ll get to see a little bit more of that and understand their connection from before. He’s got some unfinished business with her, I’d say.”
According to ComicBook.Com, Connor Hawke will appear in DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow…
Connor Hawke will be making his way to DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow. Following reports that the show is casting an African-American or biracial male who decides to put on the uniform of a missing hero who once stood for justice and hope, we decided to dig a big deeper on who the character might actually be. Our sources pointed to Connor Hawke and we have confirmed what we found with Warner Brothers.
Beyond confirmation, Warner Brothers offered no other details beyond his appearance on the show, but did say that this iteration of Hawke will not be the son of Oliver Queen and Sandra Hawke.
During an interview with Collider, David S. Goyer offered an update on his planned Superman prequel series Krypton…
