The Vixen Animated Scene They Didn't Show On The CW Last Night

There was one part of the animated Vixen scene that wasn't included in last night's two-hour special. It was a one-minute clip that connected the animated series to her live-action debut in season four of Arrow. This bridge piece was done around that time and showed online, I believe — even though the CW Seed has is listed as a deleted scene.

I think the idea was to make the animated version look a little more like the actress voicing her. Megalyn Echikunwoke had long hair, while the animated Mari McCabe had a short cut. This clip showed her as she would appear in live action and also showed Green Arrow as he looked in season 4, without the sleeves. Stephen Amell, of course, did the voice here, as Oliver Queen went to Detroit to get help with Damien Darhk.

Here is how Vixen/Mari looked in the live-action episode.

Last night, Marc Guggenheim said we'd see a glimpse of this Vixen on DC's Legends of Tomorrow this season… I wonder if that might be another animated connector? He also said he wanted to see Mari and Amaya (Maisie Richardson-Sellers), I'm guessing that would be in live action if it were to happen.
