The Time Bureau is the scalpel, whereas the Legends are the chainsaw, says executive producer Marc Guggenheim.
Read our full interview with Guggenheim below to get the scoop.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Where are we picking up with the team?
Robert Falconer/The CW
Theyre something a little left of center.
So what the Time Bureau represents is the proper way to do things.
We did that last year.
This is people, places, and things that shouldnt be where they are.
So how much harder are they to fix than aberrations?I wouldnt say that theyre harder or easier.
So now theres multiple problems to solve.
The Time Masters were controlling time.
Is the Time Bureau much more about following the rules?Yeah.
You got to be careful.
The Time Bureau is his wish fulfillment.
Its like, Finally!
The Time Masters were kind of immoral, so the Time Bureau isnt.
Theyre very law-abiding and moral.
The Legends were screw-ups.
The Time Bureau isnt.
Theyre super-efficient and professional, so this is the best iteration that Rip could ask for.
The example we always use is its likeBeverly Hills Cop.
The Beverly Hills Police Department is an awesome, awesome institution.
Youre doing another group of villains this year.
DidDamien Darhktake note from the Legion of Doom in creating this new cabal?I wouldnt say that.
Why does he decide to create this group?
What is he after?Oh.
Fair, but he came in with pretty grandiose plan when he was onArrow.
He literally wanted to destroy the world.Yes, but I didnt tell you that for a while.
How does bringing inKuasaemotionally mess with Amaya?
At least for Amaya, obviously.
Did the events of theVixenanimated series happen for her?
Because she died, and also, at one point, fought alongside Ray Palmer.
Is that going to be addressed?Yes, it will.
So I think that gives Amaya a little bit of hope.
You didnt have to watchCivil War.
Its the same thing.
That was something that was always at the forefront of our mind, certainly starting in season 2.
Its a tonnage question, and also the way you see them.
Like for example, in episode 302,P.T.
Barnumis a major character in the episode.
There are other episodes where we may see a historical figure just as a one-off joke.
Speaking of, whats next for Nate?Nates just a blast.
This year really sees Nate embracing the superhero side of his life.
We are also having a lot of run with his relationship with Ray.
Theres this budding bromance thats a lot of fun to play between those two guys.
He knows the answer to that question.
He may not be happy with the answer, but hes at least moved on from it.
