Superfriends to cement Supergirl/The Flash friendship

February 2nd, 2017 by Marc Comments

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend star Rachel Bloom has penned a track for the forthcoming Flash/Supergirl crossover.

Buzzfeed received confirmation of the song called Superfriends via a statement from the actress. It will see a duet between Melissa Benoist’s Kara and Grant Gustin’s Barry.

Bloom said: “As soon as I heard that they were doing a musical crossover, I e-mailed Mark Pedowitz who connected me to Greg and Andrew. I immediately offered them my services. As soon as they picked one of my song ideas, I hopped on the phone with my old Robot Chicken boss Tom Root and we brainstormed and, based on that brainstorm, I wrote up the song ‘Superfriends’.

I am so excited to contribute more to the upward trend that is musicals in television and film. Music can be one of the most amazing and efficient forms of storytelling and character development. Also, it was really fun to write a comedy song for two superheroes.”

The Flash/Supergirl crossover kicks off at the end of March 20’s episode of Supergirl, followed by “The Duet” on Flash the day after.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
