Arrow 508 Preview – Part 3 of 4 in “Heroes Vs Aliens” Crossover Event

Episode Summary: Oliver (Stephen Amell) wakes up to a life where he never got on The Queen’s Gambit. Robert (guest star Jamey Sheridan) and Moira Queen (guest star Susanna Thompson) are alive and well. Laurel (guest star Katie Cassidy) is his loving fiancée and their wedding is imminent. Everything seems perfect, but Oliver starts to notice small imperfections that make him question this new reality. Meanwhile, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) and the recruits take on a new threat with help from The Flash (guest star Grant Gustin) and Supergirl (guest star Melissa Benoist). James Bamford directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti and written by Marc Guggenheim & Wendy Mericle (#508). Original airdate 11/30/2016.

The big crossover event is almost here! And holy alternate reality, Batman Green Arrow! Oliver is getting a taste of what life would be like if he was never marooned on Lian Yu. But we all know that is just an illusion, and whatever the “small imperfections” are, they’ll clue him in to the falsehood of his fairy tale life. Angst seems imminent, too. Seems like Oliver would be happier if his parents and former-fiancee were still alive. Oh well! ‘Tis not the life for our favorite hero-in-a-green-hood.

Because it’s the annual crossover, we’ll be seeing a star-studded cast of guest actors! Some usual suspects, some new ones. I’m especially excited for Oliver to meet Supergirl. We know she and Barry hit it off, but what will the broody archer think of her? Ah, who am I kidding? He’ll probably love her.

Get hyped, everyone! We’ll see an alien invasion and the biggest team up yet! Are you excited? Share your thoughts in the comments!
