Titans Nightwing Actor Turned Down Crisis On Infinite Earths Cameo
Brenton Thwaites, who stars as Dick Grayson, a.k.a. Nightwing, on Titans, reveals that he was offered to cameo in Arrowverse's Crisis on Infinite Earths but passed on it. Since 2012, executive producer Greg Berlanti has become one of Warner Bros.'s most prominent creators, starting with Arrow, which launched an entire universe of DC TV shows.

Titans is shooting season 4, reportedly eying a fall release date. While Titans were never launched as an Arrowverse spinoff, the HBO Max drama is loosely tied to the franchise via the Multiverse, as established to exist on Earth-9 in Crisis on Infinite Earths. However, the tie-in may have had a more significant role than what was shown on-screen.
