The Arrow series finale was originally supposed to be much different.
Creator Marc Guggenheim recently opened up about how Oliver’s death was always planned, but for the actual finale.
“I always saw the show ending with Oliver’s death, but Oliver’s death in the actual finale,” he told Fake Nerd Podcast. “Then I kind of had a little bit of a fantasy that Oliver would die and you’d end with some sort of news broadcast talking about his legacy and that would sort of become the voice over.”
“And then you would go to this rooftop in a whole other city, and on the cut a thug or some bad guy would crash into the frame, having been punched off-screen,” Marc added. “And these pair of black boots would come down right in front of him and there’d be a flutter of a scalloped cape and the voice over would say something along the lines of, ‘Oliver Queen inspired a whole new generation of vigilantes.’ The implication being, of course, that he inspired Batman. So that, of course, didn’t happen for a variety of different reasons – not the least of which is Batwoman came along – but that was my original conception.”
The Arrow finale almost could have spawned a Batman series, but they decide to hand the reigns over to Oliver’s daughter Mia for the Green Arrow & The Canaries backdoor pilot. Still no word yet if that show will be picked up to series.

Tune in for the 100th episode of Supergirl TONIGHT (February 23) at 9/8c after an all new episode of Batwoman on The CW!
In the latest episode, after months of searching for Sue Dearbon (Natalie Dreyfuss), Ralph (Hartley Sawyer) gets a lead on her whereabouts and finally comes face to face with his missing client.
However, Sue refuses to return home to her family, and instead, takes Ralph on a daring adventure.
Who is Sue Dearborn, you ask?
According to ComicBook.com, in the comics, Sue is the one who eventually becomes Ralph’s wife. She was “a socialite from New York who met Ralph when he crashed her debutante ball with Ralph doing something that is quintessentially Ralph Dibny: using the ruse of dealing with jewel thieves as a means to see Sue.”
“The pair ended up having a whirlwind romance and married quickly with the Dibny’s becoming one of the most loving (and beloved) couples in comics with Sue staying right by her husband’s side as he served with the Justice League.”
