Following next week’s Crisis on Infinite Earths Part Four, there’s just two episodes of The CW’s Arrow remaining – the first of which is titled ‘Green Arrow and the Canaries’ and will serve as a backdoor pilot for the latest Arrowverse spinoff featuring Katherine McNamara, Katie Cassidy and Juliana Harkavy.
The episode will air on January 21st, and The CW has now dropped the official synopsis, which reads as follows:
It’s the year 2040 in Star City and Mia Queen (McNamara) has everything she could have ever wanted. However, when Laurel (Cassidy) and Dinah (Harkavy) suddenly show up in her life again, things take a shocking turn and her perfect world is upended.
Laurel and Dinah are tracking a kidnapping victim with direct ties to Mia and they need her help. Knowing it will change everything, Mia can’t help but be a hero and she, Laurel and Dinah suit up once again to save the city.
Should Green Arrow and the Canaries move ahead, it will presumably take the slot vacated by Arrow as part of The CW’s DC schedule, with the Stephen Amell-headlined series set to end on January 28th after eight seasons.
