ARROW Executive Producer Denies Connection Between ARROW And DC's Cinematic Universe
With speculation at an all-time high that the world of Arrow (and presumably The Flash) will soon collide with Warner Bros.' big screen DC projects, executive producer Greg Berlanti has denied that there are plans for the two to become one and the same.
With rumours of a movie starring The Flash in 2016 (as well as a cameo appearance by the character in 2015's Batman Vs. Superman), you can't blame anyone for thinking that there's a chance that that Barry Allen will be the same one played by Grant Gustin in Arrow! After all, having two live-action versions of the same character around at the same time could be considered confusing to some, but that's clearly not an issue for Warner Bros. "We haven't had any of those conversations other than to say, what characters are we allowed to use this year and advocate or request certain ones that are of interest to us," Greg Berlanti told Fandango recently. "And every now and then, they'll say, 'You can't have that guy.' They don't say why, and we figure out why later on." So, for the time being, this confirms earlier reports that the two worlds will be kept separate for the time being. You never know what might happen in future though!
