Are you ready for another Arrow and The Flash crossover?

Because we might be getting another one...but this time, instead of a two-night crossover event, it's going to be in the form of an all-new spinoff show!

E! News has confirmed that the CW is currently developing another Arrow spinoff show, with characters from both Arrow and its highly-successful spinoff series The Flash.

So who's going to star in the potential new series? Get this: it's going to be the DC Comics superhero crossover team-up you never even knew you wanted.

According to Deadline, who first reported this news, the all-new series from Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and Marc Guggenheim would star Arrow's Brandon Routh and Caity Lotz along with The Flash's Victor Garber and Wentworth Miller.

If you're currently scratching your head saying, "Huh?" you're not the only one. Routh currently plays Ray Palmer/the A.T.O.M., and the CW already announced they were considering another spinoff show about the A.T.O.M. This is the same project, but now there are even more superheroes attached.

But what about Lotz? Lotz starred on Arrow as Sara Lance/the first Canary, but since she was (spoiler alert!) murdered earlier this season and her sister has taken up the name the Black Canary, it's unclear how she would appear in the new spinoff. Would she show up in flashbacks? Would the show be a prequel? Would she play an entirely new character? We don't know, but we can't wait to find out!

Cate Cameron/The CW

As for Miller, he guest stars as Leonard Snart/Captain Cold on The Flash, and it's interesting to note that his villainous counterpart Heat Wave (played by his Prison Break brother Dominic Purcell) isn't mentioned in the new series.

Also curious is the fact that Garber plays one-half of the superhero Firestorm on The Flash along with Robbie Amell, but Amell is also not mentioned.

Here's what else we know about the potential new series: other Arrow and The Flash characters would stop by the new show, and the new project will introduce three major DC Comics characters who have never appeared in a TV series.
