‘Arrow’ Producer Previews ‘Checkmate’ In New Featurette

Ahead of tomorrow night’s episode of Arrow, The CW has released a new featurette in which executive producer Wendy Mericle takes you inside the episode that finds Oliver powerless in his struggle against Prometheus who was revealed in the last episode to be Star City district attorney Adrian Chase.

The episode will also feature Felicity descending into her downward spiral as she officially joins the hacktivist group Helix in an effort to save Team Arrow and defeat Prometheus.

You can watch the featurette below.
