Arrow is preparing to air its final episode in early 2020, but how will the show end?

Digital Spy spoke to LaMonica Garrett, who plays the Monitor, and although the star didn't reveal any specifics (as you would expect), he did describe the series finale of the popular superhero show as "beautiful" and is hopeful that fans will be very happy with the ending.

"One word that came to mind to describe how it ends is 'beautiful'," Garrett said. "It's a beautiful ending.

"A lot of shows have their ending and it doesn't live up to what the fans thought it should be. I remember when Seinfeld ended, people were like, 'Oh, that was a terrible ending', even though I happen to like it. Game of Thrones, people have their opinions on the way it went out.

"I think Arrow's ending is beautiful. That's my opinion. Everyone might have their own opinion, but I think it's a really good ending. And Arrow is the first show that started everything, so it's significant.

"Oliver Queen started this world. I don't think they had any idea how big it would get, and it kept ballooning. And this season, it's building even more – Superman and Lois have a show that's in development. I read Martian Manhunter might have a potential spin-off. It's just growing and growing, and it all started because of Arrow."

Garrett admitted that he was a little nervous being introduced as the Monitor in 2018, but he couldn't be happier being part of DC's Arrowverse.

"It's always intimidating as an actor joining a show that has been steamrolling for years and years, and I wasn't just joining one show. I was joining a few shows, just jumping on board.

"That itself is intimidating, and then you have the fact that it is a comic book character that people are passionate about. At the end of the day, you've got to prepare to put the work in and if they like it, they like it. And it turns out that they did, which is great.

"I'm a big kid at work every day. I'm the guy at work who has comic books in my bag, and when I'm in my trailer, I'm reading the new Justice League.

"And then, [when I'm told], 'Alright, we're about to rehearse!', I go to set and I'm rehearsing with the same people that I'm reading in the Justice League comic book. This whole genre, this whole world – the fans are amazing, and it's a great experience."

Arrow season 8 airs on Tuesdays at 9/8c on The CW in the US. In the UK, it airs on Sky One and NOW TV.
