Arrow: Scoop on Grant Gustin's future on the show and the potential spin-off from TVLine's Michael Ausiello

Here's some scoop on Arrow from this week's (Posted on 12/17/13) Ask Ausiello column.

Question: I’m loving Barry Allen on Arrow. Will we see him again in later episodes? –J
Ausiello: Although Allen’s originally planned third appearance, in Episode 20, has been scrapped in favor of filming an actual pilot for The Flash, EP Andrew Kreisberg says, “What happened in Central City at the end of [the fall finale] was certainly big news,” as the STAR Labs particle accelerator went haywire and ultimately zapped Barry unconscious. Kreisberg though stops short of guaranteeing an on-screen Arrow mention, explaining, “Right now, we’re focusing hard on writing the Flash pilot and breaking the rest of the season of Arrow. But hopefully there will be some synchronicity between the two [shows], in anticipation of getting to see more of Grant [Gustin] and The Flash.”
