Last year’s crossover episode for “The Flash” and “Arrow” were a real dream come true for the fans. But this year everyone involved is looking to up the ante in every single way. According to Stephen Amell the next set of crossover episodes will be “the pinnacle achievement for both shows.” Whoa, that’s a bold claim.
Amell recently spoke to Zap2It and revealed some of the juicy details about the crossover episodes.
“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.
I think these crossover episodes standing together will probably be, in my mind, the pinnacle achievement for both shows. We shot a scene that had, like, nine superheroes in it. Nine people with either powers or super suits. It was an amazing thing to look at, to look out over the scene and see the world that has been built over the course of three-plus years.” Stephen Amell said.
Nine superheroes? If that doesn’t get you excited for the crossover episodes than nothing will. Sounds like the episodes are going to do a lot of the leg work when it comes to kicking off “Legends of Tomorrow” and we’re totally cool with that.
