Caity Lotz has some interesting thoughts when it comes to the prospect of a Batwoman/Sara Lance romance.

On July 21st, 2018, I attended a media session for Legends of Tomorrow season 4 at San Diego Comic-Con. I was able to speak with Caity Lotz, who plays Sara Lance, about what’s in store for her character in season 3. Sara Lance was one of the first LGBT characters in the Arrowverse family of shows. As such, she’s helped pave the way for the many characters who followed, including Batwoman, who will make her debut in the annual crossover this December.

A reporter at our table asked Caity if Batwoman’s arrival would cause complications for Sara’s love life. “Why would it cause conflict?” Caity pondered aloud. “Like maybe Sara’s gonna be like ‘Yooo’”, Caity continued jokingly. After briefly imagining the possibility, Caity smiled and coyly responded with “Maybe.”

“I don’t know,” Caity continued. “I feel like Ava and Sara it’s more than a fling. So, some hot chick in a bat costume isn’t going to just pull her away. But you never know.” I don’t know,” she said, intrigued by the idea.

While Caity had her own ideas of how the Sara/Batwoman meeting would go, she reminded us that the interaction wouldn’t be happening anytime soon. “We’re not in the crossovers this year. Legends are not in them at all. We’re like doing our own thing,” she said.

Caity did touch upon Sara’s current romance with Ava Sharpe. “Sara and Ava are in a really good place,” Caity explained. “They have a very healthy, nice relationship. Of course, that’s going to get challenged. But, right now….we good.”

When asked about a possible Nyssa/Sara reunion, Caity lit up. “I would love to have Nyssa come,” she said. “I mean I love Katrina Law. The fans love her.” “I miss NysSara”, she continued, referring to their fandom nickname. “It’s like the first love. It would be a lot of fun. And I’d be like, ‘well aren’t you married to Arrow guy?'” “Is she still married to him?” she asked us.

After being updated on the status of Oliver Queen and Nyssa’s marriage (annulled in case you’re wondering), Caity told us about the challenges Sara would be facing in season 4. “I think her big challenges is she had nothing really to lose before,” Caity explained. “It was just work, team, this and now she has a relationship and feels like for once in her life she’s not a screw up. We fixed time. She’s starting to have like the standard for herself. Stuff is going to start to happen and jeopardize her being able to balance the two. And, I think Sara really wants to have some normalcy and a real relationship and do human things. Her whole life she’s kind of missed out on that. That’s going to be hard, trying to hold on to that while being the captain of a traveling time ship.”

Caity was then asked if Legends would touch on the death of her onscreen father Quinten (from the Arrow season 6 finale). “We won’t see much of that on Legends cause we’re a comedy,” she said. “It’s there. It’s hard to bring stuff over from the other shows. And, I think a lot of that happens in off-screen. We talk about and acknowledge it, but it’s at least at this point isn’t a big thing. But, I would love to dive deeper into the family stuff, and have Sara’s mom come on. That would be great.”

Do you want to Nyssa to come back? Or, are you curious about a Batwoman/Sara romance? Or, are you rooting for Sara and Ava to go the distance? Legends of Tomorrow returns on Oct 22nd.
