The CW ’s DC crossovers are always filled with fun , and oftenincredibly absurd surprises . They are , after all , about a miscellanea of attractive actors in various passel of pleather punch extradimensional beings , outlander , nazis , and sometimes even extradimensional alien nazis . ButCrisis on Infinite Earthsperhaps hadthe wildest yet — and it virtually did n’t happen .
Although the final two hour of Crisis were swooning on the gleeful cameos ofits first three episode , it made up for the lack of measure with a moment that absolutely no one ever thought would actually happen . cannonball along through the Speedforce after the Anti - Monitor round him , the Spectre ( who , long story short , was now Oliver Queen ) and his allies in the Paragons , Barry Allen finds himself back in what looks like STAR Labs .
And there ’s another Flash waiting for him . Not just anyone , either : the Barry Allen of the DC Cinematic Universe , as wreak by Ezra Miller inJustice League , is staring right back at him . The multiverse lives , film and TV are one , and yes , for a very abbreviated moment in and among all the nonsense of it all , the world of superhero comic books and their adaptations remind us that they are very good . But it twist out that it was a import that actually nearly did n’t happen . In fact , it did n’t even come together until Crisis on Infinite Earths was actually wrapped and basically arrant .

“ We were series wrapped on Arrow , and we were wrap on the whole crosswalk . We were in post and some episodes were interlace , and some were diffuse - locked , ” executive manufacturer Marc Guggenheim told Variety . “ I got a phone call from [ Warner Bros. Bos ] Peter Roth saying , “ I know you ’re lock , but can you put Ezra into the crossing ? ” And I tell , “ Yes . ” And he state , “ How , you ’re series wrap ? And you ’re wrapped on the crossover . ” And I said , “ Yeah , I know , but if you ’re telling me Ezra Miller can be in the crossover , I can make it happen . ”
From that initial acceptance , Guggenheim had to turn to two other crucial soma before Miller ’s scene could be shape into Crisis — The Flash showrunner Eric Wallace , who then in turn contact , well , The ostentation : Grant Gustin himself . “ The one thing that was our only business organization was the thought we did n’t want to do it unless Grant was 100 percent onboard with it , ” Guggenheim stay . “ And he was . He was incredibly enthusiastic and onboard with it . ”

From there , the squad hastily pitch the abbreviated scene to Miller , who then managed to get to The Flash ’s production studio apartment without any paparazzo plain pay attention to him . With just the crew of the show in on the mystery , it was , stunningly , not until Crisis bare that most people involved with the crossover at large get to learn of the panorama . post a scuttlebutt on Gustin ’s instagram of a picture he shared after the crosswalk , Supergirl ’s Melissa Benoist expressed her own shock at Miller ’s cameo : “ YOU KEPT THIS closed book SO WELL , ” the actress shriek - typed . “ NONE of us knew ! ! ! ! Or did they know ? ! Was I the only one that did n’t know ? ! ”
As surprising as it is that , after years of waiting , we finally get to see TV ’s jiffy team up with the Movieverse ’s scarlet speedster , it ’s kind of incredible that it was n’t in reality planned to have fall out in the first seat . give thanks the Speedforce it did though .
