Arrow Producers Preview Second Half of Flash Crossover
The Arrow portion of the show's crossover with The Flash airs Wednesday night at 8 p.m. Eastern on the CW, and fans are counting the minutes until the episode airs. Luckily, producers Marc Guggenheim and Andrew Kreisberg took the time to offer a preview of the second hour, entitled "The Brave and The Bold."
The two spoke to EW.com to preview the episode. Firstly, Guggenheim revealed that the crew from The Flash "are tasked with helping catch Canary's (Caity Lotz) killer at the end of the first part of the crossover. We're immersing them deeply into our season-long mythology."
Guggenheim also remarked how the shows maintain their respective tones throughout the crossover even though each team enters the other's home turf. Kreisberg mentions a scene in which someone on Team Arrow gets hurt and Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) has to step in as a doctor. But it's a much different experience for her, as it's life or death and blood is everywhere and it rattles her.
Guggenheim further commented on the difference in Barry's coming to Starling City. "It's so different from the first hour," he said. "The episode of Flash really feels like an episode of Flash, and the episode of Arrow really feels like an episode of Arrow. It's an opportunity for us to look at our characters through a completely different light. We're basically getting a chance to look at Oliver through Barry's eyes. It's a different perspective than the one we've typically seen with our Team Arrow. They've all figured out their opinions of Oliver for the most part, but things are going to be pretty testy between Oliver and Barry, because Barry is going to have some very strong opinions as to how Oliver does his business in Starling City.
