Crisis on Infinite Earths is set to resume on Tuesday, January 14, and Arrow star Stephen Amell has unveiled what may be the final trailer for the 2-hour conclusion. With the Green Arrow set to exit Greg Berlanti’s shared DC TV universe with the ongoing eighth and final season, this crossover will be Oliver’s last hurrah. While Oliver’s death in the Crisis has been building up since the end of season 7, the Emerald Archer did fall within the first hour, but not how the Monitor had predicted it. Through a resurrection by the Lazarus Pit, the heroes attempt to save Oliver’s soul from Purgatory.
But fate had other plans for Star City’s fallen hero as Jim Corrigan (Stephen Lobo) emerged to reveal that it was Oliver’s turn to become the Spectre. By becoming something else, one of Arrow’s consistent mantras, Oliver’s journey will come full circle in the two remaining installments of the crossover. With only a few days remaining before the highly anticipated finale, the Arrowverse is about to face its biggest game-changer since Arrow first kicked off in 2012. Since this will be Amell’s final participation as a main player in the crossovers, it was more than fitting for the actor to share one last surprise for the viewers.
In an emotionally charged message on Twitter, Amell unveiled the supposed final extended trailer for Crisis on Infinite Earths parts 4 and 5. Stating that “everything has to have an ending,” the message is a reminder of how imperative Oliver has been in getting The CW’s own version of the Justice League together in a successful shared universe. The extended trailer showcases the heroes of the Arrowverse joining forces to take on the Anti-Monitor (LaMonica Garrett) and his army of Shadow Demons.
Given the impact the Crisis on Infinite Earths comic had in DC Comics’ canon, the trailer reminds the viewers that the Arrowverse will never be the same after this crossover. Little has so far been revealed about Oliver’s new role as the Spectre, but the footage makes it clear Oliver will, without a doubt, have a major role in the crossover’s final two episodes. Whatever happens to Oliver after the Crisis will be up to Arrow’s final two episodes to reveal, as the series finale airs on Tuesday, January 28.
Arrow will kick-off the remainder of the crossover followed by Legends of Tomorrow in an event which kicks off their fifth season with a “special episode” before their actual season premiere on January 21. With little being known about any of the DC TV shows post-crossover, viewers will be learning a lot about where the Arrowverse is going after the Crisis is over. With all of the ongoing shows having recently been renewed for the 2020-2021 TV season, Crisis on Infinite Earths will truly mark the end of one chapter and the start of another when it finishes on Tuesday, January 14.
