Speaking to TVLine, Guggenheim revealed that the villain could die in the upcoming episodes of the show, as opposed to the belief that they would keep him alive in keeping with the storylines of the DC universe. The question suggested that it was something of an impossibility, to kill off Ra's al Ghul, and that DC comics would not be in agreement with such a twist. Guggenheim suggested that that was not the case and that they had all the creative freedom to do as they pleased with the character.
"The truth of the matter is that DC is our partner, and they've been a wonderful partner," he said. "They've never told us who has to die or who has to live - and I don't anticipate that changing any time soon. What we do with Ra's as far as whether or not he lives or dies will be based solely on a creative decision that we make for the good of the show, and has nothing to do with the greater forces at DC.

In the same interview, Guggenheim also stated that episode 14 of the season would be something of a "love letter" to the show.
In the latest episode of the show, fans got to see a bunch of twists, including Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) finally take on the suit of the Atom. Routh looked striking in the blue and red attire. TVLine also reported that there might be anArrow spin-off in the works, adding that the creative team has a "very general idea" right now.
The president of the CW network spoke about the possibility of that, to the publication.
"Could there be another hour in that [DC Comics] universe? Possibly," Pedowitz said. "As long as there's no audience fatigue."
Uprising released on January 28 at 8 p.m. E.T. on the CW.
