They are reporting that Will Smith is “psyched” about being apart of the DC universe, and with him signing a multi picture deal, it’s very possible for him to appear…

We have a continuous antagonist, a cliffhanger ending, and a single story told in two parts. While the crossover episodes might not serve as the best standalone installments of either Arrow or The Flash in that they don’t really progress the plot of either show (and really mostly serves to set up Legends of Tomorrow), it really allows the strengths of both shows to shine through…
