Oh, I just double checked and you're right. I could sworn I saw his named listed under the executive producers.I didn't see Berlanti's name in the article. Whether or not he's involved with this might be the deciding factor on whether or not this will be set in the Arrowverse. Maybe even more so than that it's on The CW. The Flash crossed over to Supergirl while that show was still on CBS.
Technically it was a Vertigo comic, and as far as I know the comics took place in their own world with no connections to the DCU. So that's probably the show wasn't part of the Arrowverse.IZombie, also a DC show on The CW, never crossed over with the Arrowverse shows.
I'm pretty sure they would have listed him with the other producers in the article if he was involved.I have a hard time believing it won't be from Berlanti. He practically is The CW at this point. He's their go-to guy for comics adaptations.
Constantine and Lucifer both took place in the DCU, but I, Zombie did not.Perhaps because it was more a horror comedy than a superhero show. Or because it was a Vertigo title, but that didn't stop them from crossing over with Constantine and Lucifer.
Well technically, the Lucifer comics are spun off from a DCU comic, I'm not sure if they ever had any DCU connections in the Lucifer comic.
