'Arrow' Villain to Appear in Four-Series Crossover
DC superhero the Green "Arrow" will be up against villain Prometheus in the upcoming four-series crossover of the DC-CW shows.
In the four-way crossover between "Arrow," "The Flash," "Supergirl," and "DC's Legends of Tomorrow," titled "Crisis on Earth-X," the Prometheus from the alternate planet is among the villains set to appear in the special. The comic art revealed that Dark Arrow, Dark Flash, and Overgirl will also appear in Earth-X.
In this alternate universe, called Earth-X, the Nazis won the second World War.
Josh Segarra is not expected to reprise his role as Adrian Chase a.k.a. Prometheus. As of now, the identity of the man behind the mask remains unclear. It is important to note that on Earth-X, Chase is not going to take on the identity of the second Archer, Prometheus-X. It will be a different personality. Entertainment Weekly suspects that Paul Blackthorne's Quentin Lance could be under the mask or Colton Hayne's Roy, who is expected to return to the show soon.
Other suspected candidates for Prometheus-X include Speedy (Thea Queen), Tommy Merlyn (Colin Donnell), and Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman). Since the crossover is set on a different planet, characters who have passed in the original shows could easily return as their Earth-X counterparts.
The four-way crossover is a two-night special. The first episode will air on Monday, Nov. 27 which will be followed by a second one on Tuesday, Nov. 28. For the crossover, "Arrow" will be moved to Monday at 9 p.m. ET on The CW, after "Supergirl." The rest of the shows will air in their regular timeslot.
"Supergirl" season 3 will be back on The CW on Monday, Oct. 9 at 8 p.m. ET while "The Flash" season 4 premieres Tuesday, Oct. 10at 8 p.m. ET, followed by "DC's Legends of Tomorrow" season 3 at 9 p.m. ET. "Arrow" season 6 premieres on Thursday, Oct. 12 at 8 p.m. ET.
