'Arrow' adding The Flash to cast, spinoff series possible

Let's hope they get along a little better than this.

Faster than a speeding arrow?

You have to think so. The CW announced Tuesday that The Flash will join the cast of "Arrow" as a recurring character. And, if all goes well, he could race off into his own series.

“We do want to expand upon the DC Universe," network President Mark Pedowitz told Tuesday's annual Television Critics Association press tour, according to The Associated Press. "We think that there are rich characters we can use, and we felt like this was a very organic way to get there.”

“Arrow” debuted in the 2012-2013 season as The CW’s most popular new show. Starring Stephen Arnell as Oliver Queen, the show returns for a second season in October.

There was no word on who might don the red-and-yellow tights to play Barry Allen/The Flash.
