It’s been no big secret that Coast City is going to play a big role in “Arrow” season 4. Many fans have wondered if we’ll be getting any Green Lantern teases and executive producer Marc Guggenheim recently told Entertainment Weekly that we might be seeing something special in the season premiere when it comes to Green Lantern easter eggs.
“There is a nod or two. There is a billboard that people will get a kick out of, and there may or may not be a ring in the season premiere.” Guggenheim said.
Whoa, that sounds like it could be pretty awesome. Don’t get too excited though. It’s not likely that we will see the Green Lantern in the Arrowverse due to DC’s plans to launch another film franchise in a few years.
He also talked a little bit about the show taking on a lighter tone.
“Ever since Slade Wilson [Manu Bennett] came to town around [season 2, episode 15], the show has been on this very, very dark path, leading to Sara’s [Caity Lotz] death and the culmination of season 3. Our goal was to return the show more in the tone of the first season-and-a-half.”
“Arrow” returns on October 7th.
