Late last night, or earlier in the day depending on your time zone, Arrow showrunner Beth Schwartz made a very sad admission on social media.
The executive producer and all-round powerhouse between the Arrowverse first series confirmed that yesterday was in fact the writers last day working on the series.
Taking to Twitter Schwartz posted a brief message saying “Last day of @ARROWwriters room #endofanera”. With the writers completing their work on the series it’s now down to the production team to complete filming.
Very soon we will start seeing actors saying goodbye to their roles on the show. Get ready for some tears!
