Last month the stars of the “Arrowverse” visited California for San Diego International Comic Con, and this year’s convention was full of fun surprises. The cast members of “Arrow” are SDCC veterans, as they’ve been attending the convention for a few years now, and some wacky things have happened along the way.
During this year’s event the cast sat down for a confessional video and they each shared stories about Comic Con, that ranged from funny to embarrassing. Willa Holland’s story was without a doubt the best, and she revealed that “The Flash” star Grant Gustin saved her from a major wardrobe malfunction after she bent down to scratch an itch.
“I have actually had my ass literally saved by The Flash. A couple years ago at this very Comic Con, I had an itch on my ankle and decided to bend down and scratch said itch. While doing that the entire back end of my dress just completely popped, and thankfully Grant Gustin ran right behind me, took off his blazer and wrapped my ass, and then saved it. I was then saved by The Flash.”
It turns out that Grant Gustin has a lot more in common with his television counterpart than we thought.
You can check out the full confession video below.
“Arrow” will return on Thursday, October 12.
After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the North China Sea. He returned home to Star City, bent on righting the wrongs done by his family and fighting injustice.
As the Green Arrow, he protects his city with the help of former soldier John Diggle (David Ramsey), computer-science expert Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), his vigilante-trained sister Thea Queen (Willa Holland), Deputy Mayor Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), brilliant inventor Curtis Holt (Echo Kellum), and his new recruits, street-savvy Rene Ramirez (Rick Gonzalez) and meta-human Dinah Drake (Juliana Harkavy).
Oliver has finally solidified and strengthened his crime-fighting team only to have it threatened when unexpected enemies from his past return to Star City, forcing Oliver to rethink his relationship with each member of his “family”.
