Wheaton is best known for his roles in the film Stand by Me and the TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation. If you've been in the geek community for any amount of time, you probably recognized him. Wil Wheaton as a Doomsday Prophet As the episode zeroed in on Earth-38, Supergirl's world, the camera focused in on an apocalyptic doomsday prophet, played by none other than actor Wil Wheaton. To make this cameo even sweeter, Ward was walking Ace the Bat-Hound! Ward's inclusion in this episode is such a sweet tribute to one of the most beloved live-action DC shows on television. Ward played Dick Grayson/Robin in the 1966 series Batman and its subsequent movies. As the camera panned over Earth-66, we were treated to an appearance from Burt Ward. Burt Ward as Dick Grayson Our next cameo was a fun one. Actor Russell Tovey reprised his role for this unexpected but welcome cameo. "Part 1" showed us that after the events of "Crisis on Earth-X," The Ray is still fighting for truth and freedom. Earth-X is also home to the Freedom Fighters, including The Ray. This Earth was home to evil versions of our superheroes, including the awkward evil power couple of Oliver Queen and Supergirl.
We've been to Earth-X before, in the 2017 Arrowverse crossover. (Also, fun fact, before Ritchson was on Titans he played Aquaman on Smallville.) Russell Tovey as The Ray Next, we saw Earth-X. This is the first time anyone from the DC Universe has appeared on a CW show. Seeing these actors came as quite as a surprise because Titans is a currently-airing DC show. This scene took place in San Francisco on Earth-9. First, we saw Alan Ritchson, who plays Hank Hall/Hawk on Titans, then Curran Walters, who plays Jason Todd/Robin. You can also hear the Batman theme song playing over this scene! Alan Ritchson and Curran Walters as Hawk and Robin Our next cameos were of two cast members from Titans, which just wrapped its second season on DC Universe. And what was the name of his Earth? Earth-89, of course. Knox was a reporter for the Gotham Globe in Batman. In "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 1" Wuhl can be seen reading a newspaper as the skies of his Gotham become red. Robert Wuhl as Alexander Knox Our first cameo came from actor Robert Wuhl, who you may recognize from Tim Burton's Batman (1989), in which Wuhl played Alexander Knox. As we flew by each Earth we were met with a surprising amount of cameos. The camera whizzed through different Earths and worlds, showing us that there were more than just 52 Earths in the DC Multiverse. Next, the productions have to get all the shows to agree on what happens story-wise in the special because it could drastically change their story arcs of the individual series moving forward.As Crisis: Part 1 began, the voice of the Monitor took us through the creation of the Multiverse. (In fact, the cast get paid more for these episodes than their usual standard episode fee.) And the other actors have to keep producing their own episodes while filming this special five-hour event. Brandon Routh plays Atom, but would be needed to play a version of Superman inspired by the comic Kingdom Come.
