'The Flash' and 'Supergirl' musical crossover sees Barry and Kara at a romantic crossroads

After 3 seasons of fast villains, The Flash will hit the brakes in Season 4.

"Subsequent season we're now not going to have a speedster [as the main villain]," showrunner Andrew Kreisberg discovered all through a panel at La' PaleyFest on Saturday, wherein the celebrities and producers of The Flash, Arrow, Supergirl and Legends of The next day have been accrued to have fun the four CW suggests.

But before Barry Allen (Provide Gustin) can slow things down, he desires to defeat this season's Massive Bad. That would be Savitar, a self-proclaimed velocity god, who's threatening to kill Barry's soulmate, Iris West (Candice Patton).

"With Savitar, we recognize who he is under there," Kreisberg teased. "We've been planning this for some time and we are absolutely excited about it."

In keeping with the showrunner, the outlet seasons of Flash were approximately reveling in having powers, while the modern-day episodes are about their pitfalls. "It is the story we desired to tell and that is why our model of Savitar is the perfect villain for that tale," he said.

The March 21 episode of The Flash, "Duets," is a musical crossover with Supergirl, proposing Glee alum Darren Criss as Tune Meister, who traps Barry and Kara (Melissa Benoist) in an alternate fact that operates like a film musical.

  Kreisberg said the episode takes a page out of Joss Whedon's playbook, noting that even in Buffy the Vampire Slayer's "gimmick" episodes like "Hush" and "Yet again With Feeling," the storylines "did not stop the ongoing narrative of the season; the ones episodes simply spoke to what the characters had been going through.

"We set it up in order that within the Flash and Supergirl, Barry and Kara would be at a romantic crossroads…they are able to move in this adventure together to both get returned the love they misplaced or no longer."

After his sojourn via a few musical numbers, Barry will be looking to discern out simply how to forestall Savitar, and episode 18 will function a villain from the future called Abra Kadabra.

"He is aware of who Savitar is and it turns into a ethical conundrum: Do Barry and the group allow Abra Kadabra go a good way to get Savitar's identification?" Kreisberg defined. "Iris and Barry have a first rate scene, 'Are you able to be a hero in case you do one awful thing?'"

Episode 19 is known as "The Once and destiny Flash," in which "Barry makes a decision that the handiest manner he can find out what he wishes to recognise is within the destiny," Kreisberg said.

Gustin admitted he understands viewers who are frustrated with some of Barry's questionable choices in Season 3 — including his decision to


"I agree maximum of the time, as a viewer, with the backlash that Barry gets," he revealed. "He's continually been an positive man or woman and i assume this yr we just see his fear dictate matters greater than ever, because how should it not with what He's going through?" 

Supergirl airs Mondays at 8 p.M., The Flash airs Tuesdays at 8 p.M., Arrow airs Wednesdays at eight p.M. And Legends of The next day airs Thursdays at eight p.M. at the CW.
