When it was announced that Arrow showrunners, Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg, were doing another DC show – featuring Superman’s cousin, Kara – many were wondering if she’d be part of the Arrowverse. The glimmer of doubt was that Supergirl was on CBS, not CW, like Arrow, Flash, and the most recent, Legends of Tomorrow. But when Constantine, another DC show, was canceled from NBC, his fan support landed him a special-guest-star on Arrow. Then rumors started to circle of a Flash and Supergirl crossover.
Fan boys and girls rejoice! Comicbook.com has announced that Flash’s Grant Gustin will indeed run over to Supergirl’s National City on March 28th.
“We are so incredibly excited to announce something that we have dreamed of happening since we starting making Supergirl– The Flash and Supergirl are teaming up!,” said Berlanti and Kreisberg. “….thanks to the fans and journalists who have kept asking for this to happen. It is our pleasure and hope to create an episode worthy of everyone’s enthusiasm and support.”
With Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, Vixen, and Constantine, the Arrowverse is only getting bigger with the addition of Supergirl. Now, let’s cross our fingers that they’ll find a way to rope in Fox’s Gotham. Perhaps Robin Lord Taylor could do a cameo as an aged Penguin.
