If they want another team member there are plenty of idle characters from the arrowverse to choose from. They could get Ragman for instance. Or Mister Terrific.

Mr. Terrific would of a been an amazing replacement for Ray Palmer. It seems like Echo Kellum wants to move on though.

In the Supernatural universe there are a series of books (written by God) describing the first few seasons of the show. So it's plausible that those books got made into a TV show.

Except that Supernatural is finishing this season. The bit where the Legends found the car was obviously the closest we're ever going to get.

It's the Legends. Make up some technobabble about how they're really monster hunters, and the best way they could find to both fund it and keep out of trouble was to make a TV show out of it. Crazier poo poo has happened and I see no reason this wouldn't work on Legends.

Didn't the first episode of the season have the Legends do exactly that? Pretend it's all a fake so they could do it for real?

Too late. They�ve already established that supernatural is a TV show in the Arrowverse.

And that Sara is a huge Jensen Ackles fan, so Ralph puts on a Jensen Ackles face to ingratiate himself to his new captain. Have constant �Hey, aren�t you that guy from Supernatural?� gags.

Good news, there was an episode where Sam and Dean find themselves in the bodies of their actors in a world where Supernatural is a TV show... so a crossover is totally not out of the question and is 100% going to happen.

In fact it bears the reasoning that the world Sam and Dean were sent to was in fact the Arrowverse Earth and Supernatural is in the Multiverse.

So basically we need to get the Supernatural cast back together to film a quick scene of their universe being eaten by Crisis we can retroactively add in. Call them. They'll probably do it.

They didn't actually finish filming the final season so they could always add something in when they come back.

So Katee Sackhoff talked to io9 recently for a retrospective of her career thus far and she dropped some really funny insights into Amunet Black.

quote:

io9: Switching gears, let�s talk about your role as Amunet Black on The Flash. How much fun did you have playing such an oversized villain, and what inspired your portrayal of her, including her accent?

Sackhoff: Hands-down, it�s the most fun job I�ve ever had in my career. When the role first came around, I had a serious talk with the showrunner at the time. I was like, �Listen, I don�t want to just come in there and play Katee. That�s not fun for me.� We were really trying to squeeze it into some time that I had available, but I was also very busy in my private life. So it was sort of, �What can we do to make this character so desirable that it works for what I want to do?� I had literally just put myself on tape for the producers of a movie and I had to do a British accent. But like, a real British accent. [Laughs.] I had so much fun doing it that I thought to myself, �You know, it would be really fun to be able to do that. I don�t know where I�m ever gonna be able to do that again.�

We see a lot of British people play Americans, but we never really see Americans go the other direction. They do, occasionally, but not a lot. And there�s also�so many American actors know that when a British person is doing an American accent, you can still tell they�re British, because they pick an accent that�s so generic. And so [laughs], this is sort of me making fun of that, that like I had no idea what the accent was. She�s not from anyplace specific. The accent�s not supposed to be real. It�s supposed to be so over the top and campy that you know she�s coming even if you don�t see her face, and that�s who I wanted her to be.

That was how I sort of pitched it to them: I want her voice to be so recognizable that even if you hate her, you know it�s her. There was no one like that on The Flash, and so they really just let me run with it. It was so much fun. Someone was like, �So why did you want to play an accent that has no actual region?� Like, you can�t really place it. And I said, �Because she�s from Clearwater, Florida. She�s not British! She�s crazy!�

That�s the whole point; it�s not supposed to be a real accent. It�s her pretending to be British because she was made a supervillain, and she went, �Hmm, who do I want to be today? You know what, I�ll be British! That sounds fun! That�s pretty arch! Let�s do that.� They really let me lean into that, and I love it when people say they hate the accent. I think it�s hysterical because they�re supposed to. They�re supposed to love it or hate it. It doesn�t matter, because she is a good time and I think that�s all she was ever supposed to be.

I really hope they follow through on that whole Actually Florida Woman backstory for her and we get one scene where in a moment of panic or frustration she just drops the accent. It'll be the funniest thing ever.

About 85% of the next episode was shot before production shut down. So it�s largely pulled from that.

I think it'll be a little awkward, but mostly fine. Have, oh let's say, Cavanaugh wrap up Ralph's story from last season then put him on the shelf for a while. If they want to bring the character back down the road they can permanently recast him. And they probably will because it sounds like Sue will be sticking around for a little while too.
