Cast of Arrow Hold 100th Episode Table Read & Details Emerge on Milestone Episode
The cast of Arrow held the table read for their 100th episode yesterday, September 22! Executive producer Marc Guggenheim released a photo of Stephen Amell, Emily Bett Rickards, Willa Holland, Rick Gonzalez, and Echo Kellum preparing for the read.
Now with the picture came a caption from Marc saying, “Arrow 100th Episode Table Read. No Flashpoint. No flashbacks.” So we now know that the episode will have nothing to do with the flashpoint storyline and will have no flashbacks. The flashbacks make since because this episode will be the second episode featured in the 4 show superhero crossover, but no flashpoint is a little weird. I guess that storyline wraps before the crossover.
Katie Cassidy also announced that she would be appearing in the 100th episode. The star posted a photo of her table read card to her Facebook yesterday sharing the news, but how she comes into play in the episode is still unclear.
Lastly, if you will notice in the picture tweeted by Guggenheim, there is a familiar face sitting next to Amell. It looks like Oliver Queen’s father, Robert, played by Jamey Sheridan, will be appearing in the episode and Anthony Venza (Alex Zahara) will also be appearing. Anthony Venza was first introduced on the show back in 1×08 “Vendetta”. Oliver and the Huntress tracked him down as he was one of the many names featured on Oliver’s “List”.
I have so many questions in regards to this episode. If there are no flashbacks and no flashpoint, but all these dead characters are coming back, it either means someone goes back in time or they are alive on another earth. We know the crossover kicks off with Supergirl, but it really won’t get going until The Flash, so does Barry travel to another Earth by accident or does Supergirl travel to The Flash/Arrow’s Earth?!
Hopefully more details will emerge when filming actually begins and when the other shows being production on the crossover as well. I just know I need some answers.
What do you guys think?
