Don’t Expect To See Arrow or Flash Visit Gotham

With connected universes being all the rage lately, and Ra’s Al Ghul, who is mainly a Batman villain, being a primary antagonist in the current season of Arrow, could we possibly see some more crossover between the universes of Arrow (and The Flash, which is also directly connected to Arrow) and the larger DC Universe?

While it is unreasonable to expect Ben Affleck or Henry Cavill to show up in Starling City, don’t expect much in the way of any sort of crossovers between the Universes of Flash and Arrow and the wider DC cinematic universe, according to Arrow & Flash executive producer Andrew Kreisberg.

"There are things we can do, and there are things we can’t,” said executive producer Andrew Kreisberg. “I’m a huge fan of Nightwing. But there are cities we can use, and then there’s everything else. You won’t be hearing Gotham or Metropolis on the show anytime soon"

This is such a bone-headed move, DC should really take a note from Marvel here and really incorporate their movie and TV universes. It’s bad enough we’ll have a movie Flash and a TV Flash…
