As October got under way, so did the annual DC TV universe crossover event that they have done for the past few seasons. This year, only 3 of their 4 shows are taking part, with Legends Of Tomorrow taking a pass on this one. Arrow, The Flash and Supergirl are teaming up for the event.

On this particular day, they filmed several scenes in downtown Vancouver for the "Arrow" part of the crossover. I didn't see any of the early day filming as I just plain slept in. But I eventually got up, went down, got an autograph for someone who asked me to get something done for them them other night, from Arrow star Stephen Amell as he headed to his trailer for lunch break. I quite literally spent 3 whole seconds there to get that done.... and with that, I felt like "mission accomplished" and left fully aware they weren't going to be there after lunch.

Little did I know, all they were doing was moving 2 or 3 blocks away. While I was at home, I saw a tweet from Stephen showing him on set with Grant Gustin, Melissa Benoist AND The Flash recurring guest star & the 1990s Flash, John Wesley Shipp. So I raced back out of the house to go find them.

When I got to set, I was shocked at the effort they were going thru to try and cover things up. They even were trying to cover STEPHEN in the Flash suit up... I mean hey, we've already seen him in a promo photo, his own tweets, and 2 days of set photos from The Flash shooting, but sure, yeah, work hard to cover that "spoiler".

As the day went on, I saw them also trying to cover up (thank you twitter user @marysocontrary2 for telling me who it was, as I had him down as "unknown actor when I first published this) Lamonica Garrett who was cast as The Monitor. He was wearing large golden boots, and was wearing a costume of some type. The crew were so put out that I got some photos of him, they had a cop come and talk to me, at length for awhile in hopes of trying to get rid of me. After some early tension between us, we eventually got to chatting for quite a while. I get he had a job to do and had to investigate the claim from the crew, and in the end, he understood I had something I was trying to do as well.

When the shoot ended, Melissa left first, with her security guard and crew member escorting her away past everyone. Shortly after Grant came by, and took photo with the fans there still in his Arrow make up & some of the costume. Then came Stephen. The other night I had asked Stephen if I could get a photo with him in the costume since I already have Grant in The Flash costume, and he said sure.... so today he honoured his promise, and despite having the suit 1/2 off already, re-suited up to take a photo with me, then did so for a couple other fans. John Wesley Shipp then was leaving, and he too after some uncertainty of how to do it (his mask was pulled down in front of his face covering half of it), took photos with fans in his Flash uniform as well.... which for the record looks SO velvety (if that's a word) in person.

After that, I left as it was clear they were finishing for the evening.

The Arrowverse event will air on December 9, 10 & 11 on The CW in the U.S.

If you are in Canada, and do NOT have Netflix... You will have to watch it by Unofficial means, because the morons at The CW have given Netflix the rights to air The Flash the next day (it literally does NOT air live ANYWHERE in Canada), while giving Arrow to the Showcase network, and giving Supergirl to the Space network. The former network that carried them, CTV, now has none of them for some reason. So uhhh, I guess good luck with watching it.

On this particular day, they filmed several scenes in downtown Vancouver for the "Supergirl" part of the crossover. Funny enough, with no main Supergirl cast, and only 1 of the 4 scenes shot even had a Supergirl guest star in it.

Tyler Hoechlin was seen on set, and as Stephen Amell showed in a tweet yesterday, Superman has some new threads for this crossover event. Lucky Stephen was willing to share with you all, because when Tyler was down on ground level (they were filming on top of a parkade) he was more modest about showing off his new duds. Covering up the Man Of Steel outfit as much as he could.I managed a few photos that JUST catches the top of the logo before he covered up even more.

There were two other scenes shot during the day that I didn't get any photos of the cast at. One in Oceanic Plaza, which is used by EVERYONE at some point, they had a scene where a group of spectators were watching something happen in the sky, but no actors were there for it. Then after the roof top scene, was a scene in an alley where they were using a drone to film... something? Whatever it was, it wasn't actors, I can tell you that much.

A bit later I caught up with Stephen and Grant Gustin filming at a different location. While I had seen both of them at the roof top location, it was only for brief moments as they wanted to & from the set from their trailers. Grant once, noticed me there taking photos, and waved, then showed off his new attire, trying to put on a bad boy sneer with it. Of course, since I wasn't given prior warning to his plans, I both missed the wave, and him flaunting the wardrobe off to me, as I had started shooting too late to catch the wave, and ended too soon to catch the showing off in its entirety.

At the other location Stephen, as Oliver Queen. Grant as Barry Allen, both shot a scene where the pair stormed down a street together, running into an apartment building before getting into an altercation inside the building. The pair were both dressed like boyband members pretending to be hoodlums. They had jackets on that said "Trigger Twins" on them. All I could think when I heard the term was how often triggered is used on the internet, and wondered, are Barry & Oliver internet vigilantes? But in all seriousness, the pair shot this series of scenes there, before they took a break. When they went on their break, I left, because I really didn't think anything more special would be happening. Sometimes I get this wrong... this was 1 of those rare occurrences. Barely after I got home & took my shoes off, I got a DM from a twitter user that was there @themyscirabound telling me Stephen showed back up, in full GREEN ARROW wardrobe.

I asked Themyscirabound if she felt like sending me a couple photos to put in this post, and she agreed, so if you use any of the photos of Stephen in the Green Arrow attire below, credit HER.

Today was the day that the worst kept secret in the Arrowverse happened. Of course, depending how you feel about particular ships in the Arrowverse, this was joyous, or the death of the franchise in your mind.

A duo wedding took place today. Yes, a DUO WEDDING.

With the crossover episodes almost done filming, the cast of The Flash and Arrow found themselves shooting a scene on LOT today with no LOT cast in the scenes. The scene consisted of The Flash cast Grant Gustin as Barry Allen and Candice Patton as Iris West, along with Arrow cast members Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen, Emily Bett Rickards as Felicity Smoak and David Ramsey as John Diggle shooting a scene in downtown Stanley Park for the much hyped double wedding between the commonly shipped duos West Allen & Olicity.

While The Flash characters looked dressed for the occasion, it was pretty clear Oliver and Felicitys wedding plans were pretty spur of the moment, as they were both dressed in casual clothes.

The ceremonies were officiated by John Diggle. For reasons that I am sure the storylines will eventually explain, neither of the couples friends or family were in attendance. The couples instead, acted as each others witnesses. The scene starts with Diggle appearing, clearly after Barry speeds him  there. Diggle freaks out, then goes and vomits, before coming back to the two couples, and after a brief talk, starts the ceremony. At the end of the ceremony, the two couples kiss, then the scene ends.

While many fans on both sides are outraged that their couple had to share their moment with the other, many others were just as overjoyed to know their couple of choice at least finally were married.

Earlier in the day scenes were shot with Oliver, Felicity, Barry & Iris along with characters from Legends Of Tomorrow and Supergirl. I will have a blog on that shoot at a later date.... but for now.... enjoy shippers.
