Of course, we're talking about The CW's "Arrowverse" – though we know that we have to throw an asterisk or two next to Superman & Lois because of some multiverse maneuverings But it would be appropriate to refer to Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, DC's Legends of Tomorrow, Black Lightning, and Batwoman as part of the[...]

It was the ten-ton tease during the Arrow series finale that got a lot of Arrowverse fans excited In "Fadeout" (directed by James Bamford and written by Marc Guggenheim & Beth Schwartz), John Diggle (David Ramsey) finds a crashed meteorite that contains a box that emanates a green glow when opened Why was that a[...]

Though continuing to expand her resume in different and challenging directions – like with the recent Max series, The Girls on the Bus – Melissa Benoist will always be remembered for her portrayal of Kara Zor-El/Supergirl for six seasons, seen by many as one of the foundational figures of the "Arrowverse" (impressive considering her initial[...]

Before he was able to reprise the role for the Arrowverse crossovers "Elseworlds" and "Crisis on Infinite Earths"… before he joined the Arrowverse's The Flash as both Henry Allen and Jay Garrick… John Wesley Shipp was Barry Allen, aka The Flash Of course, we're talking about the 1990 short-lived but still-beloved CBS series that ran for[...]

Another person who has more than earned that right is one of the masterminds of the "Arrowverse," Marc Guggenheim But instead of offering a look at where the Nexstar-owned CW is heading, Guggenheim is revealing just how important the Stephen Amell-starring Arrow was to the network. Imagine the pressure that comes with launching a live-action superhero[...]

But when Brandon Routh – who played The Man of Steel in 2006's Superman Returns and the "Kingdom Come" version in 2019-2020's Arrowverse crossover "Crisis on Infinite Earths" – has some insights to share with current Superman, David Corenswet, it's something definitely worth paying attention to. "I think the biggest thing for me about Superman is[...]

When it comes to learning a lot about what went into creating and keeping the shared universe running, "Arrowverse" co-mastermind Marc Guggenheim continues proving to be one of the best sources of intel For this go-around, Guggenheim was asked on Twitter/X earlier this week who the most difficult character was in the "Arrowverse" to cast. In[...]

Even before the final word came down that Elizabeth Tulloch & Tyler Hoechlin-starring Superman & Lois would be ending its run with its upcoming fourth season this fall, Brad Schwartz, President of Entertainment for CW, hasn't exactly sounded like a big fan of the "Arrowverse." In terms of Superman & Lois, we're talking about an[...]

On May 24th, we will be honoring the one-year anniversary of Grant Gustin-starring The Flash S09E13 "A New World, Part Four" (directed by Vanessa Parise and written by Eric Wallace & Sam Chalsen) – the final chapter before the book was officially closed on the "Arrowverse," eleven years after it kicked off with the premiere[...]

"Arrowverse" fans – and fans of Grant Gustin, Candice Patton & Danielle Panabaker-starring The Flash, in particular – might be feeling a bit worried today Why? Because it's April 25, 2024 – the day that Gustin's Barry Allen goes missing – vanishing in the midst of a universal crisis And the show wasted no time introducing[...]

Cutting across Supergirl, Batwoman, The Flash, Arrow, and DC's Legends of Tomorrow and running between December 2019 and January 2020, the five-part Arrowverse mega-crossover event "Crisis on Infinite Earths" featured a ton of appearances from several DC Comics-related series So you can only imagine how excited Smallville fans were when they heard that Tom Welling and[...]

When we last checked in with Grant Gustin, he was having a reunion in NYC with his Arrowverse bud Stephen Amell (Arrow) as he was readying for his Broadway debut in the Imperial Theater's production of Water for Elephants But not long before then, Gustin celebrated that all-important February 3, 2024 date (more on that below)[...]

While we will always think of Stephen Amell & Grant Gustin as Oliver Queen from Arrow and Barry Allen from The Flash, respectively, we can't expect them to spend their entire careers in the Arrowverse In fact, both made headlines over the past few weeks, with Amell locking down the lead role for the pilot[...]

Ray Palmer on The CW's DC's Legends of Tomorrow (and several guest appearances throughout the "Arrowverse"), and as Superman/Clark Kent in 2006's Superman Returns and the Earth-96 version in 2019-2020 "Arrowverse" crossover event "Crisis on Infinite Earths" (Part 2: Batwoman Season 1 Episode 9) While we still have mixed feelings about "Returns" overall, Routh's portrayal[...]

It's February 3, 2024, Flash fans - did you really think that Grant Gustin would forget? Check out what he had to say about the special day...

We were closing the book on the "Arrowverse," though the love, respect & appreciation for what that small-screen DC Universe was able to accomplish hasn't diminished Earlier today, Panabaker brought the "Arrowverse" back into our lives one more time, offering a series of behind-the-scenes looks at her run over the years in honor of January[...]

For Arrowverse fans, May 24, 2023, was truly the end of an era That's when "A New World, Part Four: Finale" (directed by Vanessa Parise and written by Eric Wallace & Sam Chalsen) aired – bringing to an end not just the nine-season run of The CW's Grant Gustin, Candice Patton & Danielle Panabaker-starring The Flash but also[...]

After nine seasons of a series that helped the "Arrowverse" blow up and also closed the final chapter on it (at least for now?), it's no surprise But maybe the biggest compliment paid to Gustin's turn as the Scarlet Speedster was the legion of fans who took to social media wondering why Gustin wasn't being[...]

Though the final chapter on the "Arrowverse" universe may have been written when The CW's Grant Gustin, Candice Patton & Danielle Panabaker-starring The Flash ran its last mile back in May with "A New World, Part Four: Finale," Warner Bros Home Entertainment is giving fans a chance to own Barry Allen's (Gustin) final run this Tuesday,[...]

On Friday, showrunner & executive producer Beth Schwartz (DC's Legends of Tomorrow), series creator Marc Guggenheim, and other members of the Arrowverse unleashed the "Arrow" Reunion Picket upon Warner Bros Studios in Burbank, California And the focused event was a success on a number of levels – not the least of which was shining a spotlight[...]

While we will readily admit that there was a lot more to cover than we could reasonably do in 1-2 posts, we do have a look at what a number of members of the "Arrowverse" had to say about the importance of SAG-AFTRA & WGA and why it's important for the unions to stand up[...]

Today? Amell joined the SAG-AFTRA picket lines in NYC earlier today (check out some images here) – but didn't forget to reach out to his "Arrowverse" fam on the west coast. Image/Screencap: The CW, TMZ Here's a look at the video from The Hollywood Reporter, with Guggenheim sharing that he spoke with Amell the night before and[...]

Even in the midst of his birthday celebration, Gunn was still able to carve out some updates and a bit of gossip clean-up regarding The CW's "Arrowverse" The Flash star Grant Gustin But first, we have those updates we just mentioned – and both have to do with Gunn & Peter Safran's upcoming animated series based[...]
