The third episode of the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover will have a cliffhanger, according to Arrowverse producer Marc Guggenheim.
The Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover will have a first in The CW’s history of Arrowverse shows in that the episodes will not all air back-to-back. Instead, the five-part event will be split into two chunks: three episodes in December, and two in January after a break. And since there’s a break in place, Marc Guggenheim is promising that fans that will have to pick their jaws up from off the floor right as that break begins.
Marc Guggenheim, who brought DC fans Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, and the animated miniseries Vixen, has promised that fans will experience a crisis of their own just as Crisis on Infinite Earths goes on break. The show will stop on a pretty big cliffhanger in December before it resumes in the following month:
The story for #CrisisOnInfinteEarths was worked out with this break in mind. So Hour 3 ends on a cliffhanger. Sorry not sorry. https://t.co/h039oIbYlh

As it stands, Marc Guggenheim is one of the key figures responsible for bringing the Arrowverse to life, and now he’s helping usher in its darkest hour. Crisis on Infinite Earths is set to have a lot of surprises, and it seems like the first set of episodes is going to end on a doozy that will leave fans counting the hours until the event continues.
Crisis on Infinite Earths has been teased since the very first episode of The Flash, where a newspaper headline from the year 2024 revealed the Barry Allen’s fate was to disappear during a “crisis.” However, the fifth season finale of the Grant Gustin series accelerated this when the original newspaper headline changed the date of the event from 2024 to 2019. To add to this, the seventh season finale of Stephen Amell’s Arrow set up Oliver Queen’s role in the next crossover by having him join the Monitor on a mission to warn other worlds of the crisis, as part of the arrangement the Emerald Archer made in order to save the lives of both The Flash and Supergirl.
Crisis On Infinite Earths will span two quarters and consist of Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman. The Arrowverse crossover will launch with three episodes in December before concluding with two additional episodes in January.
