We’re still a couple of months away from the start of the sixth season of Arrow on The CW, but speaking to Slash Film at the Television Critics Association summer press tour, executive producer Marc Guggenheim has revealed that plans are already underway for season seven.
“We’ve already started talking about ooh, we have a shape for season seven already,” said Guggenheim. “This is the earliest we’ve ever had an idea for a season that far ahead, but it’s come out of our conversations about season six.”
Guggenheim also revealed that the team already has a good idea of how to bring the series to an end, when the time should come:
“I think we’ve always had an endpoint in mind. We’ve always known how we want to end the show. That end point doesn’t require X number of seasons. If we had to, we could work towards it as long as we knew with enough leeway, we could work towards the moment we’ve been talking about since day one.”
