DC's small screen adaptations are about to go in full steam as recent news indicates that "Arrow" and "The Flash" executive producers Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and Marc Guggenheim are about to deliver yet another offshoot series based from the mentioned titles.

Speaking with Variety, showrunner Berlanti revealed some meaty details about the proposed TV show saying that it is designed to be "most similar to our crossover episodes, where you feel that 'event-iness,' but all the time."

He further likened it to Western classics like "The Magnificent Seven" or those heist pictures like "Ocean's Eleven" "where you get all those colors at the same time, and a true ensemble, and that was the fun of it."
