Day dreaming of next years crossover? Kevin Smith is too.
After taking a run at directing both ‘The Flash’ and ‘Supergirl’, uber nerd Kevin Smith has a big dream of doing the next CW crossover event. These events happen once a year, and are an extreme fan favorite. The four core shows, ‘Supergirl’, ‘The Flash’, ‘Arrow’, and ‘Legends of Tomorrow’ are all together in a four night crossover episode series. The story includes all the characters, and focuses on the particular shows main story during their episode.
Smith is a big fan of the CW and the super hero shows it’s been handing out. It’s no surprise he would want a piece of this awesome cake.
According to my source, Smith replies:
“If they ask me?” Smith laughed when we put the question to him yesterday.”I put in my request to [executive producer Andrew] Kreisberg already, dude.
After I watched their crossover, I said, ‘Please, dude, please, next year, just give me a taste of that crossover. I just want to be involved in one of them. I don’t care which one.’ They look like a nightmare to shoot, I’ll be honest with you. I did the ‘Killer Frost’ episode [of The Flash] right before they went into the crossovers, and the crossover schedule, you’re talking about four different shows where you’re swapping performers and characters and stuff like that. It’s a nightmare on all the AD’s, as they have to try to figure out how to make this all work. That being said, look at the end results, dude. That was absolutely thrilling to watch all four of those shows cross over….I’m asking, I’m asking. I don’t know if they’ll let me but believe me, I’ve already put in the request. I said, ‘Whatever it is next season, whatever the crossover is, even if it was The Death of Kevin Smith, I want to be involved somehow.'”
Time will only tell, but the feelers are out there, and something tells me he is going to get the job
‘The Flash’ comes back with new episodes this Tuesday, January 24th at 8/7c on The CW.
