Yahoo News Arrow boss provides "frustrating" update on the Canaries spinoff
The Arrowverse's first show Arrow may have come to an end, but there is a spin-off called Arrow and the Canaries in the works. You might have seen that an Arrow episode from the final season earlier this year was essentially a backdoor pilot.
Now a few months have passed, you'd hope that there would be some progress towards bringing this spin-off to the screen, but unfortunately executive producer Marc Guggenheim isn't able to share that much with fans.
Speaking exclusively to Digital Spy to promote Wizards: Tales of Arcadia, the TV boss said: "I know things, but it's up to CW and Warner Bros to publicise the things I know.

"Actually, it's a little frustrating because people are constantly tweeting at me and I would love to answer, but there are certain things I'm not allowed to talk about until the powers-that-be decide we can."
Speaking about the state of the Arrowverse in general, Guggenheim added: "I've finished with Arrow, I've finished with 'Crisis on Infinite Earths'. It feels like the end of a chapter for me.
"So I'm not entirely sure if there's another chapter to be had at this moment in time. At some point, I need to figure out exactly what I'm doing with the Arrowverse going forward, but I haven't quite figured that out yet... The Arrowverse shows are still going.

"Fortunately, I don't think we have to worry about it ending anytime soon. I think when that day comes, if I'm still involved in the shows, I'm sure [my experience ending the Tales of Arcadia trilogy] will inform that one."
Wizards: Tales of Arcadia is available on Netflix today (August 7), while the Arrowverse shows air on The CW in the US.
