Alex Brigthman is no stranger to diving headfirst into Broadway shows based on beloved titles—after all, he's a two-time Tony nominee for leading roles in “School of Rock” and “Beetlejuice.” But his latest project is in a bigger boat altogether. “The Shark Is Broken,” a new play that opened August 10th, captures the behind-the-scenes turmoil of Steven Spielberg's blockbuster, “Jaws.” Co-written by Ian Shaw—who also stars as his father, Robert—the show sees Brightman donning the sweater of 70s-era Richard Dreyfuss alongside Colin Donnell as Roy Scheider. “You can't turn your head in any city without seeing some [“Jaws”] shirt, hat, license plate. So I know that's a big deal, and the added pressure for me is that I'm playing the one person who's still alive who has a chance to see it,” Brigthman tells us. “ ‘Pressure' is the right word, but it's not a pressure that terrifies me. It's interesting, and I'm always excited about doing new things. This version of a new thing is like tight-rope walking with somebody's child.” On this episode of In the Envelope: The Actor's Podcast, Brightman gives us a glimpse of his intensive character-creation process, as well as a backstage look at the most emotionally fraught moment in “The Shark Is Broken.” --- Backstage has been the #1 resource for actors and talent-seekers for 60 years.

Colin Donnell (best known from Arrow, Chicago Med) has returned to the small screen one again in Peacock's latest hit, Irreverent. Donnell starts as Paulo, who we meet in the middle of an exchange. This James Bond-like moment gets ruined and, through the chaos, leaves Paulo stuck fending for himself in a small town in the middle of nowhere. Donnell said it was so much fun playing Paulo and breaking down who he is as a character, adding that he had to balance out the action with the comedy. Donnell credits many of his co-stars and the writers behind the show, saying their talent makes him look good. Donnell is joined by a slew of known actors and first-timers, including P.J. Byrne, Wayne Blair, Kylie Bracknell, Tegan Stimson, and Calen Tassone (to name a few). Donnell said he hopes fans stick around because everyone in this town has a secret. Host: Monica Gleberman Editor: Polina Jdanova Social Media Graphic: Jojo -- Synopsis: Following a failed heist, a criminal mediator from Chicago flees for his life and hides in a small Australian reef community in Far North Queensland, where he poses as the new church reverend. Unable to return home, he leverages his street smarts to pull off his new identity as a clergyman. *Irreverent is available to stream on Peacock.

Connor and Dylan have a delightful chat with Patti Murin (Frozen, Lysistrata Jones). It's the “most dramatic episode ever” as they dig into Bachelor Nation teas, Patti's pregnancy with her second daughter, and her Broadway career, all on the eve of buying tickets to the Taylor Swift Eras concert. This trio giggles about reality television, swoons over Colton Underwood, and covers The Secret Garden, living in a real life Hallmark town, and destigmatizing anxiety. Of course we revel in the brilliance of Patti's performance as Anna in Frozen, the heartbreak of Lysistrata Jones, and the need for Christine Baranski back on Broadway. They also discuss Nina West in Hairspray, The White Lotus season 2, and Patti's newly recorded duo album with her hunky husband Colin Donnell entitled Something Stupid available now.Subscribe to DRAMA+ for bonus episodes, Instagram Close Friends content, and more!Follow Patti on Twitter & InstagramGet her new album Something Stupid!Follow DRAMA. on Twitter & Instagram & TiktokFollow Connor MacDowell on Twitter & InstagramFollow Dylan MacDowell on Twitter & InstagramEdited by Dylan

Steven Bell returns to deconstruct what Sondheim is doing in the score of Merrily We Roll Along.

Mike Isaacson, Currently in his ninth season and only the third person to hold this position in The Muny's 103-year history. To date, he has produced 56 Muny shows, 23 of which had never been on the Muny stage before. He has collaborated at The Muny with many Tony award winners and breakthrough talents, including Christian Borle, Colin Donnell, Marcia Milgrom Dodge, Gary Griffin, Heather Headley, Jennifer Holliday, Denis Jones, Laura Michelle Kelly, Dan Knecht- ges, Beth Leavel, Norm Lewis, Beth Malone, Kathleen Marshall, Patti Murin, Josh Rhodes, Emily Skinner and Ken Page. The Riverfront Times wrote, “Under the leadership of executive producer Mike Isaacson, the quality of Muny productions rose like the proverbial phoenix.” The St. Louis Post-Dispatch named him “Theatre Artist of the Year,” noting that by “staging one impressive production after another, he made The Muny simultaneously hip and – be- lieve it – important to our community.” During Isaacson's tenure, The Muny has produced new developmental productions of Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn, Lerner and Loewe's Paint Your Wagon and The Unsinkable Molly Brown. During its record-breaking 100th season, The Muny became the first theatre in the world to produce the legendary Jerome Robbins' Broadway, doing unprecedented archival work on both the artistic and business side. During that same season, The Muny produced the U.S. regional premiere of Jersey Boys. Isaacson has changed the look and feel of a Muny production, overseeing a transformation in every aspect of pro- duction that culminated in 2019 with the arrival of the theatre's extraordinary James S. Mc- Donnell stage, a state-of-the art stage house that includes revolutionary LED technology, automated sets and a host of other innovations. During the summer of 2020, when The Muny was closed due to COVID-19, Mike produced and created The Muny 2020 Variety Hour Live!, an online show that reached more than a worldwide audience of over 400,000. With Kristin Caskey, Isaacson has produced more than 23 Broadway musicals and plays, national tours, off-Broadway and London productions. All told, his productions have received more than 122 Tony nominations and 34 Tony Awards. Last year, he produced the highly ac- claimed David Byrne's American Utopia, which made every major “Top 10” list, and became a highly acclaimed film by Spike Lee on HBO, for which he also served as an executive produc- er. Just as the COVID-19 shutdown of Broadway began, he was awaiting the first preview of Neil Simon's Plaza Suite, starring Mathew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker. Also, during the shutdown, Isaacson served as a supporting producer of the acclaimed re- vival of The Unsinkable Molly Brown at New York's Transport Group. Other career highlights include: Fun Home (2015 Tony Award, Best Musical; 2018 Olivier nominee for Best Musical), Legally Blonde the Musical (2011 Olivier Award, Best Musical), Thoroughly Modern Millie (2002 Tony Award, Best Musical), Red (2010 Tony Award, Best Play), The Humans (2016 Tony Award, Best Play), If/Then, starring Idina Menzel, Lanford Wilson's Burn This, starring Adam Driver and Kerri Russell (2019 Tony nomination for Best Revival of a Play), Bring It On: The Musical (2013 Tony nomination for Best Musical), A Doll's House 2 (2017 Tony nomination for Best Play), You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown (1999 Tony nomination for Best Revival of a Musical), The Seagull, starring Kristin Scott Thomas, Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard, Caroline, or Change (Tony nomination for Best Musical); One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (2001 Tony Award, Best Revival of a Play) and Death of a Salesman (1999 Tony Award, Best Revival of a Play). For the Independent Presenters Network, Isaacson served as producer for Spamalot (2005 Tony Award, Best Musical), Ragtime (revival) and The Color Purple (2006 Tony nomination for Best Musical). He has received the St. Louis Arts and Education Council's Award for Excellence in the Arts and has been awarded The Broadway League's and Theatre Development Fund's Commercial Theater Institute “Robert Whitehead” Award for excellence in producing. He has served on the board of governors and executive committee of The Broadway League and received the Samuel J. L'Hommedieu Award. He has also received the Equality Award from the St. Louis Chapter of Human Rights Campaign.
Two great recurring guests that go great together! Dan welcomes back celebrated actor/WWD's Official East Coast Cohost, Colin Donnell, along with Joe Beatrice, founder of Barrell Craft Spirits. They drink a lot of whiskey. They talk a lot of whiskey. And by the end of the show, it becomes apparent that Dan drinking whiskey at the tail end of a week-long juice cleanse is a recipe for chaos and high comedy. Learn more about your ad choices.

“It’s going to be bumpy, but it’s going to be worth it”. Colin Donnell is a singer, actor, and musician who has starred on both the stage and screen. His stage credits include the Broadway productions of Jersey Boys, Violet, and Anything Goes (for which he received a Drama Desk Award nomination), as well as many national tours including Mamma Mia! and Wicked. Colin made his TV debut in ABC’s Pan Am alongside names like Christina Ricci and Margot Robbie, and has since appeared on Person of Interest, The Affair, Chicago PD, and both Arrow and Chicago Med as a series regular. Off of the stage and screen, Colin is also an incredible musician. While in quarantine, he and bandmate Brian Usifer formed The Nineteen Twenty, and their debut album Chaos + Cocktails is now available on all music streaming platforms. A native of St. Louis, Missouri, Colin shares he “basically lived the High School Musical in reality”. He was “a sports kid” for most of his life, until freshman year of high school when he broke his ankle playing football. On a whim, and because he could juggle, Colin auditioned for the school production of Barnum. The rest is history. Speaking about his career, Colin opens up about what keeps it fun and interesting - continually striving to improve, grow, and tell the next story in a new and exciting way. He touches on the inevitable self doubt that creeps in when you share your work, but how freeing his newest project with The Nineteen Twenty has been, allowing him and Brian to focus on making the kind of music they want to make - something they could be proud of amid the shadow of a pandemic. Colin also talks about looking forward to the inevitable “explosion of creativity” in the years ahead, born out of the COVID-19 era - “what’s to come is going to be really special”. In this episode, we talk about: The inspiration behind, and creation of his new band The Nineteen Twenty Giving himself permission to quit performing His experience doing his first straight play Something he admires about wife Patti Murin His love/hate relationship with social media Eleven O'Clock Number: The wine he and Patti collaborated on for Nocking Point Wines Connect with Colin: IG: TheNineteenTwenty IG: @ColinDonnell Twitter: @ColinDonnell Listen to TheNineteenTwenty Drink his wine!

El mes de Septiembre de 2018 rendimos homenaje a Stephen Sondheim, uno de los grandes maestros del teatro musical que ha escrito la música y las letras de "COMPANY", "SWEENEY TODD", "INTO THE WOODS" o "FOLLIES" por citar unos cuantos musicales de su carrera. Para los que quieran leer más sobre sus trabajos los remito al post STEPHEN SONDHEIM, músico y letrista publicado en www.love4musicals.com Comenzamos el mes con el podcast de "Cuéntame un musical: INTO THE WOODS" y ahora como es habitual hemos preparado una selección de canciones salidas de la inspiración de Sondheim, en la que hemos incluido también temas en los que sólo escribió las letras como en "WEST SIDE STORY" o "GYPSY" y de canciones para las películas de Warren Beatty "REDS" o "DICK TRACY" con la que ganaría un Oscar a la mejor canción original por "Sooner or later" que interpretaba Madonna en la película. Ya os advertimos de que las letras de Sondheim son su mayor fuerza por cómo maneja los versos, las palabras y las ideas, pero no queremos por ello desmerecer su música y por primera vez vamos a hacer un segundo podcast con una selección de suites y temas instrumentales para que podáis apreciar su calidad por separado de las letras de las canciones, que si bien no son melodías pegadizas, cuando las escuchas varias veces les vas pillando el gusto, pero eso será para el 24 de Septiembre. De momento id saboreando esta primera selección de temas con intérpretes de excepción ya que el mismo Sondheim manifestó preferir para sus textos actores que canten que cantantes que interpreten. Como hombre de teatro que es Sondheim decidimos comenzar con sus divertidas instrucciones para el público con las que comenzaba el musical "The Frogs" en las que va diciendo que eviten toser, silbar una melodía cuando la reconozcan, preguntar "¿Quéeeee?" cuando no entiendan una palabra del texto, tirarse pedos... y es que Sondheim no deja títere con cabeza en sus advertencias al público y eso que por aquel entonces aún no existían los móviles.... Terminaremos con la canción "Goodbye for now" que escribió para la película "Reds" de Warren Beatty y que es perfecta para cerrar el podcast de una forma provisional ya que como os hemos dicho, volveremos en una semana con más temas de Sondheim.

This week Julie Miranda, and Zane chat with Jessica Kate Ryan about which of life's truths can be gleaned from Sondheim's infamous flop, Merrily We Roll Along!"...to be a Stephen Sondheim fan is to have one's heart broken at regular intervals. Usually, the heartbreak comes from Mr. Sondheim's songs -for his music can tear through us with an emotional force as moving as Gershwin's. And sometimes the pain is compounded by another factor - for some of Mr. Sondheim's most powerful work turns up in shows (''Anyone Can Whistle,'' ''Pacific Overtures'') that fail. Suffice it to say that both kinds of pain are abundant in ''Merrily We Roll Along,'' the new Sondheim-Harold Prince-George Furth musical that opened at the Alvin last night. Mr. Sondheim has given this evening a half-dozen songs that are crushing and beautiful - that soar, and linger, and hurt. But the show that contains them is a shambles." - By FRANK RICH, New York Times- FURTHER READING -Wiki - Musical, PlayiTunesSpotify- CELEBRITY SHOUTOUTS -Stephen Sondheim, George Furth, George S.

Dedicated show in the future Three-part comic book series published from late 1988 to early 1989 Writers: Keith Giffen and Bill Mantlo; pencillers: Todd McFarlane and Bart Sears; inkers: P. Craig Russell, Al Gordon, and Dick Giordano; colorist: Carl Gafford Plot: the alien race the Dominators form an alliance and attack Earth with the goal of ridding Earth of all of its metahumans and superpowered people Invasion stopped, but a young Dominator develops a Gene Bomb, which causes all meta-humans to lose control of their powers A group led by Martian Manhunter finds a cure Comparison to TV adaptation: There is no way the TV version can be as grand because the TV universe doesn't have as many metahumans and supers as the comic Started with aliens in comic, so know their motivation, but it took a long time to learn their motivation in the adaptation CURRENT EPISODE DC EASTER EGGS & POP CULTURE REFERENCES Season 5 Episode 8 “Invasion!” (Date: 01 Dec 2016) Article: http://comicbook.com/dc/2016/12/01/arrow-easter-eggs-and-things-you-might-have-missed-in-invasion-/ Running - Stephen Amell said, "The hundredth episode of Arrow begins in a very appropriate way: it begins with Oliver running. We've had him running into the premiere almost every year, we didn't have him running in this year, but we have him running in the hundredth episode." Dinah Laurel Lance - Full-naming your fiancee while doing cutesy talk isn't entirely unheard-of, but here it's a nice little reminder that, yes, Laurel is actually Dinah Lance from the comics, the longtime Justice League and Birds of Prey member known as the Black Canary. Laurel's necklace is the Black Canary logo from the comics Oliver and Company - The reference, in case you missed it the first hundred times we used it or when Cisco explained it this week, is to a Disney animated film from the '80s. It was a musical comedy about a group of streetwise dogs who take in a small, orange cat, in which the soundtrack was primarily driven by Billy Joel, whose biggest fan is probably Arrow EP Marc Guggenheim. Per Guggenheim, he made the Oliver and Company joke in the script, but it was actor Carlos Valdes who added the Billy Joel nod. The Hozen - In the pilot, Oliver gave Thea a Hōzen (宝箭) -- an arrowhead-shaped stone he found around the neck of a dead Japanese soldier on Lian Yu. In the pilot, he told her -- as she tells him this week -- that in Japanese Buddhism, the hōzen symbolizes reconnecting. Palmer's Buyout Offer - The Palmer Technologies buyout of Queen Consolidated came in season 3 of the TV show, but apparently here, Palmer was hovering around Queen as soon as he heard Robert Queen was thinking of stepping down. Van Horn Industries - Van Horn Industries is the name of a company owned by the family of Andrew Van Horn, a superhero known as Gunfire. Gunfire was created during the Bloodlines attack, a '90s attempt to create a bunch of new superheroes by giving them a common starting point: an alien invasion where some of the victims of parasitic, cannibalistic aliens survived and gained powers. Hood Sketch - Along with Diggle under the hood, we get a look at the original Hood sketch and newspaper clippings that made up part of the Starling City Police Department's Rip Hunter-style chalkboard looking for the Arrow in season 1. MY NAME IS OLIVER QUEEN - When Oliver starts to introduce himself, he goes with "My name is Oliver Queen," just like he does in the voice over at the start of nearly every episode. Felicity hilariously cuts him off with "everyone knows who you are." Which serves the story -- he's a famous, wealthy socialite -- and the meta-text of the episode. CHICAGO MED - That roundabout thing about how Tommy is a doctor in Chicago now, and he just couldn't break away from his long shifts to come visit for the wedding? That's a whole lot of meta, talking about actor Colin Donnell, who played Tommy in season 1 and has periodically come back in flashbacks and other such stories. Donnell couldn't come for the hundredth episode because he's now a regular on Chicago Med, which is in production and couldn't spare him. THE PATH NOT TAKEN - This story seem familiar? Like last year's Supergirl episode "For the Girl Who Has Everything," or the "Flashpoint" episode of The Flash? What about "Perchance to Dream" from Batman: The Animated Series? THE FERN - It came back! Was seen when Ollie enters Diggle's Arrowcave ARROW NEWS: Heroes & Villains Fan Fest: Arrow Cast Panel Recap (Date: 19 Nov 2016) Highlights from the Arrow panel include: David Ramsey thankful he has a new helmet, Willa Holland misses wearing the Speedy outfit, and John Jr. is suppose to tie into the Conner Hawke storyline.

One of the things that I'm learning now as someone that has a big responsibility at the head of a television show and has some business interests and is a husband and a father– priorities not being in that order — I don't want to stretch myself too thin, and I wouldn't want to do something if I couldn't put my heart and soul into it.” Link:http://www.cbr.com/stephen-amell-has-been-in-contact-with-american-ninja-warrior/?utm_source=CBR-TW&utm_medium=Social-Distribution&utm_campaign=CBR-TW&view=list ARROW & PROMETHEUS HAVE AN EXPLOSIVE CONFRONTATION IN NEW PHOTOS (Date: 23 Nov 2016) Team “Arrow” is in deep trouble. In “What We Leave Behind,” the episode following the “Invasion!” crossover, Oliver discovers that Prometheus knows his and his fellow vigilantes' secret identities. What follows is an explosive confrontation between Green Arrow and his mysterious foe. The photos below show Green Arrow and Prometheus coming to blows, but Oliver is not alone. He has a little help from Spartan and Wild Dog, and it looks like they're going to fight fire with fire.

Guggenheim admits to having some regrets: “The truth is, I don't think I've ever been involved with an hour of television on any show where there hasn't been something I wanted to take back,” he says. “Doing 23 episodes a year, you're just constantly running, so nothing ever turns out exactly the way you want it to. In other words, my list of regrets is actually incredibly long; it's 100 episodes long. I'd say probably my biggest regret is I wish we had allowed the Oliver-Felicity storyline in season 4 to unfold at a more natural pace. We had set these tentpoles at the beginning of the season, and we were a bit too rigorous on how we hit them. That was a case where the planning overtook the storytelling. We didn't do things as naturally and as elegantly as we should have.” Link:http://www.ew.com/article/2016/11/29/arrow-100-episode-spoilers ‘Arrow' EP Marc Guggenheim On Tonight's 100th Episode, CW's Mega-Crossover & What's Next (Date: 30 Nov 2016) Reflecting on Arrow's future and past, as well as the labyrinth and rewards of the multi-show saga, Guggenheim spoke with Deadline about how “Invasion” came together as a crossover and a stand-alone episode of the Vancouver-filmed show. The EP, who developed the show with Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg, also hinted at where things could go next for the archer and his team as Arrow heads towards next week's Season 5 winter finale, who we may see more of from the show's past, and what the next crossover could be like.

The episode drew in 86% more viewers ages 18-49 than it did on November 16. The episode was a tenth down from last year's superhero crossover special, but its viewership was still impressive. More than 3.52 million people watched the episode.

In the interview, when asked about Lillian's means justifying the end, she said, “That is such a great moral question. Everybody could ask themselves that and come up with a whole slew of different answers. It just goes back to the question of, when is it right to do the wrong thing? That opens up a whole can of worms about good and evil, black and white. Where's the gray? Ultimately, she isn't crazy, but she's definitely committed to the end. It does justify the means for her. Obviously, she's been willing to sacrifice any kind of personal relationships with this single-minded focus. There are costs for this character to achieve her commitment.” Link:http://www.cbr.com/brenda-strong-talks-supergirl/ SUPERGIRL: MEHCAD BROOKS COMPARES JAMES OLSEN'S GUARDIAN TO BATMAN (Date: 28 Nov 2016) During a recent set visit, Brooks told CBR and other reporters that James' CatCo position has made him more like the Dark Knight. “I kind of liken it to Bruce Wayne, running an enterprise during the day and then at night putting on the sleek black suit and your costume,” he explained. “James in the DC Universe has seen examples of it before, right? He's never had to do it himself. Yeah, I think he was ready for both of those responsibilities anyway, so now he's handling it well, but at first not so much.” He also discusses the suit, why James is reluctant to tell Kara, and why he thinks Superman would approve.

The episode, titled “Medusa,” scored a solid 1.1 rating in the core 18-49 demographic, and was watched by 3.51 million viewers in total. That an uptick from last week's episode of Supergirl that puts the ratings for “Medusa” on par with the second season premiere of Supergirl.

The phase-shifting Kitty Pryde at long-last will become an X-Men team leader, whose squad includes Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Old Man Logan, and Rachel Grey. “Kitty is the right person to bring the X-Men into the future, to herald in the next era of the X-Men,” Guggenheim told us in a phone interview. “We are post the war with the Inhumans. The X-Men are sort of at a crossroads. They're at a point where they are trying to decide, is there a future for the X-Men? And Kitty is very much of the mindset that there is a future for the X-Men and it's a bright future.” Guggenheim is best known as co-showrunner and writer on The CW's Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow and previously worked on the adjectiveless X-Men book in 2014 featuring an all-female cast of characters.

Sara one-on-one with Pilgrim; +Mick steps in w/his gun Ends with usual team fight; Pilgrim surprised by young Rip w/knife Fun cgi with Pilgrim hit from all sides Time Travel: Share your thoughts Rip - kidnap younger selves to save them from Pilgrim, but... If younger selves are left out of timeline too long, people will forget about them, and… They really shouldn't interact with younger selves because of paradox Rip says this about Stein wanting to hold his baby-self, but Stein talked to Stein in the 1970s What are the rules? Amnesia pills are optional Palmer's injuries Rip Hunter His plan actually works! His real name is Michael; he was taken by Time Masters when he was an orphan on the streets trying to survive Offers self to Pilgrim. Without him, there is no team. Stein tries to remind all about how dangerous it is to remove a Time Master from the timeline, something Rip told him at the start of show Rate The Captain on a scale of 1 (Captain Crunch) to 10 (Captain Picard) Vandal Savage Not in episode! Mentioned at end because they remember their mission The Atom - Ray Palmer “Come with me if you want to live” - has always wanted to say that Existential crisis - “Could I be dead and not know it?” 2007 self gets beat up, bruises show up on present Ray Asks Kendra to marry him. Then doubt drama. Then a “Yes.” White Canary - Sara Lance Fights Pilgrim Spares with Kendra - tries to get Kendra to tell Ray the truth 2007 self - take daughter to work day with Dad Younger self is not a ninja Hawkgirl - Kendra Saunders Because of reincarnation powers, can't be killed by Pilgrim (so Pilgrim can't go back to Ancient Egypt before meteor hit? Of course, if she did, then there would be no show) Relationship drama with Ray (snore), but agrees to marry Ray Captain Cold - Leonard Snart 1972, Central City - Baby Snart is adorable, but a handful Keeps needling Rip because they don't know about Rip's past Heatwave - Mick Rory Younger self, 1990, Central City, is Pilgrim's first target Played with fire and killed family; didn't wake them, ran instead Younger self tells Mick he sounds like their father Present Mick tells younger Mick that he was angry at him for something not in his control and tells him to be better than present Mick Firestorm - Professor Martin Stein 1950 - born in back of car Surprised his father just gave him to strangers Ignores the rules and gives Jefferson a chance to meet his father Firestorm - Jefferson Jackson Born in 1993 in Central City Father died serving country; Jax never met father Has a conversation in hospital; father says he is proud of his son Jax doesn't stop father Pilgrim kidnaps father; after saved, Jax talks to father; tries to warn father Did he change things? Rip does say that maybe time wants Jax to be with father Waverider/Gideon Helps track Pilgrim When loses track of Pilgrim, Rip forms abduction plan The Pilgrim Cool Matrix-like powers Has authority to kill anyone in order to save the timeline Kidnaps team's loved ones in order to get team to give themselves up Has only one shot to kill them Time Masters Council Not the sort of folks you want to hang around the watercooler with Mary Xavier (Rip Hunter's “Mother”) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0408309/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t13 The Highlander's (Connor's) First Wife in 1986 film Star War's Fighter Pilot Bridget Jones' Diary Alum Captain Lance In his golden age EPISODE DC EASTER EGGS: Season 1 Episode 12 “Last Refuge” (Date: 22 Apr 2016) Article:http://comicbook.com/dc/2016/04/22/dcs-legends-of-tomorrow-things-you-might-have-missed-in-last-ref/1 Obvious Ones: Cities mentioned - Star City, Central City, Hub City, Ivy Town; Appearances by Quentin Lance (Sara's father), Lisa Snart/Golden Glider (Leonard's sister, and Anna Loring (Ray's fiancee. On Arrow, Anna was an attorney who worked for Oliver Queen's mother, but in the comics, Jean Loring was Ray Palmer's wife prior to her killing another superhero's wife) Disappearing from History: The visual effects used to represent the man executed by the Time Masters at the start of the episode are the same ones used in last year's finale for The Flash, when Eddie Thawne committed suicide in order to kill his descendant, Eobard/The Reverse Flash “Come with me if you want to live”: Line is from The Terminator. Booster Gold once made a similar remark during his time-travel adventures written by Legends executive producers Geoff Johns Marty McFly: Younger Rory is wearing a red vest/jean jacket outfit reminiscent of Marty McFly's Back to the Future outfit. Arrow bits: “If he ever lost me…” young Sara says of her father. Date of Ray's attack is December 19, 2014, and Arrow was on hiatus at that time Fruit Brute: Fruit Brute is one of the “monster” cereals like Count Chocula and Frankenberry. The fact that Rip has a collection of vintage cereals makes total sense because in the Booster Gold comics, we were told once that Rip has a fridge full of vintage Coca Cola Ma Hunkel: Ma Hunkel's Red Tornado is seen in Rip's time lab Rip Hunter's Mother: In the comics, we never learn the name of Rip's mother, so as to not lock his father, Booster Gold, into a future relationship Michael?: Rip Hunter's father in the comics is Michael Jon Carter, aka Booster Gold, so the name “Michael” might be a nod to his comic book parentage. ARROW NEWS: Where Team Arrow Stands when Season 5 Begins (Date: 16 Aug 2016) IGN: Executive producers Wendy Mericle & Marc Guggenheim preview what's ahead: *Season 5 deals with legacy, it deals with the past. The challenge for Oliver this year is how do you evolve and move forward when the past keeps grabbing at you, trying to pull you back. Oliver: building team with Felicity, Curtis (who is going to become Mr. Terrific), and newcomers Evelyn Sharp and Wild Dog while trying to be mayor. Tries to optimistic, but forces will try to pull him into the darkness. Relationship with Felicity should be closer to what it was during season 1. * Diggle: He is to have his own story in the army trying to get his morality back. * Thea: Going to be Oliver's chief of staff and is good at it.

We've also established over the four seasons that we can do flashback stories that don't involve the island narrative” * "We still want to make that part of our storytelling, because we do like them. We like when those non-island flashbacks sort of illuminate what's going on in the present day," Link:http://comicbook.com/2016/08/11/silly-rabbit-of-course-the-arrow-flashbacks-will-never-end/ Can it really be Arrow with a Flashback/Flashforward? ~SP Daredevil and Game Of Thrones series name drop by showrunner Wendy Mericle ~SP Arrow meets Legends meets Flash meets Supergirl: A Crossover Supercut!

Arthur Darvill (Rip Hunter) and Maisie Richardson-Sellers (Vixen/Amaya Jiwe) discuss season two.

WE LOVE ELIZABETH STANLEY! Currently headlining the national tour of "The Bridges of Madison County," Elizabeth was most recently seen on Broadway as Claire in last season's Tony nominated "On The Town." We first discovered Elizabeth in the 2006 John Doyle production of "Company," in which she played April (as well as the oboe, alto saxophone, and tuba). She went on to star in the short-lived but much-loved Broadway production of John Waters's "Cry Baby." She followed that performance up as Dyanne in the 2010 production of "Million Dollar Quartet." We have to say, though, it was her turn as Gussie in the 2012 Encores production of "Merrily We Roll Along" alongside Celia Keenan-Bolger, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Betsy Wolfe, and Colin Donnell that cemented her standing as one of today's greatest theater stars. Enjoy! Oh, and check out www.bridgesmusical.com to find out when the tour of "Bridges" will be in a city near you!

COLIN DONNELL RETURNS AS TOMMY MERLYN IN A FLASHBACK; MATT WARD GUEST STARS AS SIMON LACROIX, AKA KOMODO — Lance (Paul Blackthorne) calls the Arrow (Stephen Amell) when another archer appears in town and starts skewering businessmen. Diggle (David Ramsey) uses A.R.G.U.S. to find the archer’s identity; he is a man named Simon Lacroix (guest star Matt Ward), who goes by the codename Komodo. However, the team hits a rough patch with the mission and gets help from a surprising source – Laurel (Katie Cassidy). Meanwhile, Oliver begins to worry that he hasn’t heard from Thea (Willa Holland), which forces Roy (Colton Haynes) to tell him the truth about why she left town. Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) pursues Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards). In the flashback, Maseo (guest star Karl Yune) tells Oliver that Amanda Waller has ordered his first kill. As Oliver looks down the scope of the rifle, he sees the target is his best friend, Tommy (guest star Colin Donnell). Despite her promise to her sister, Laurel debates sharing a secret about Sara (Caity Lotz) with Lance. Wendey Stanzler directed the episode written by Jake Coburn & Keto Shimizu (#302).
