‘Arrow’ post mortem: Boss opens up about the shocking [spoiler]! | EW.com

‘Arrow’ post mortem: Boss opens up about the shocking [spoiler]! | EW.com | ARROWTV | Scoop.it

WARNING: This post contains major Arrow spoilers. Shocked? Stunned? Heartbroken? Join the club. The 20th episode of Arrow‘s second season dealt a huge personal blow o the hooded hero — one that’s going to affect him and those around him forever. I guess what we’re saying is…


RIP Moira Queen.

Yes, the mayoral candidate/mom to the hero who walks among us and his sister from another mister, has been killed. Specifically, Slade Wilson stuck a blade through her chest in an ultra-emotional scene that played out in front of her children. Will they ever recover? Probably not. But is Oliver Queen going to make him pay? We sure as heck hope so! Luckily, based on what executive producer Andrew Kreisberg says, that sounds like a likely scenario. “The next episode opens with Moira’s funeral and Oliver is missing,” he teases.

Saying farewell to actress Susanna Thompson, however, was a difficult decision. “Susanna has been with the show since the beginning and she was one of our big [casting] gets early on that really signaled to the audience and to reviewers that this wasn’t your average CW show,” he says. “And like with Colin Donnell [whose character was killed off in the season 1 finale], these last few episodes were her pinnacle. This is as good as anything that’s on television, and unfortunately, because of the kind of show it is, probably won’t be recognized as such.”

The big — and heartbreaking — death wasn’t the only big development in the episode, though. Below, Kreisberg dishes on the Queen love child lurking about and what’s next for the gang.


On Oliver’s baby:
In the episode, we learned that Oliver had fathered a child with a woman, who was later paid off by Moira. And while Kreisberg says that there’s “no character name” for Oliver’s baby, it is something they plan to revisit…eventually. “You know, I think like we did in season 1, the seeds for season 2 were planted in season one,” he says. “The best part of the success that the show has had was knowing we were going to be able to make more and knowing that we could drop these things in and pay them off later….This is something that will be paid off in season 3.”


On killing off Moira:
While sad over the thought of saying goodbye to Thompson, Kreisberg says the stories that would result from the move were too great to pass up. “Her death has a profound impact on everyone in the series,” he says. “It’s certainly is what’s going to drive Oliver in these last three episodes and it’s going to drive Thea, not only in these last three episodes but also into series 3. Sometimes the worst thing you can do personally is the best thing you can do professionally.” Moreover, he says, Moira was a character that had done her creative duties and they wanted to avoid making her a “caricature.” “It was, ‘If Moira wins the mayorship and if she makes up with her kids, what is she? What is Moira without a giant secret?’ And if they all forgive her and then there’s some other giant secret, for us, it felt like we were becoming a giant soap opera,” he says. “It really just felt like, in a way, she could die a heroes death and also die this person who was conflicted. Because even as she’s saying, ‘Hey, we have to tell the truth,’ we’re seeing that she’s kept this other horrible secret. You literally can’t change her.”

I love that Moira knew Oliver's secret and kept it. I wonder what secrets she took to her grave.

The Flash cast discusses the madness of the Elseworlds Arrowverse crossover

Arrowverse crossovers can get a little chaotic. Last year's featured alternate universe Nazis and evil doppelgangers interrupting Iris and Barry’s wedding. So, how do you go about topping that? Try a cosmic-sized threat wrapped up in a Freaky Friday-type scenario.

 

""I got to work with James Bamford a lot," said Gustin. "He's one of Arrow's stunt coordinators and directors, and he's worked with Stephen very closely for seven seasons. I got some training with archery, which was very cool and probably the hardest part. I had never done that. There were a lot of aspects that I wasn't aware of as far as keeping the elbow down and how heavy the bow actually is and tricks to pulling the string back. It was mostly getting used to that."

How Arrow Season 7 Will Be Affected By Oliver's Time In Prison

How Arrow Season 7 Will Be Affected By Oliver's Time In Prison | ARROWTV | Scoop.it

"Oliver's time in prison will impact Arrow Season 7 and this is how."




Arrow director James Bamford opened up on what fans could expect to see without giving away how long Oliver will actually remain behind bars. On Oliver having to hang around his opponents, Bamford teased:




"The dynamics in that prison, depending on how long he stays in that prison, are very, very different from the Oliver and the dynamic that you've seen on the rest of the show previously. So it's a new element to this show that way, and it's something that you haven't seen before. And you're gonna find it really interesting. For instance, what would happen if Batman went to prison, and in the cell next to him, The Joker was just chilling, making hamburgers, or what have you. The possibilities are endless of trying to take advantage of all the situations that could and would probably arise within that sort of mythology."



 

webgurl's insight:

James once worked as a Juvenile Corrections Officer. I wonder if he used any of this experience while directing Stephen's scenes.
