After months of anticipation, it’s almost hard to believe that the four-show, four-night DC TV crossover is less than two weeks away. Set to include the casts of Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow, and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, this mega event may very well be talked about for years to come. As the clock counts down, several new details have come to light, courtesy of some official synopses released by the network.

Although Supergirl officially kicks off things on Monday, November 28 with “Medusa,” it seems to be the most autonomous of the four shows participating and sounds like it more so functions as a prologue. But then again, we pretty much saw this coming.

The DC Arrow-verse started modestly enough with Arrow, and one man’s goal to save his corrupt city. That expanded oh-so-slowly in its second season when it introduced Barry Allen before spinning him off into his own show, The Flash.

Things expanded even further when a few characters from Arrow and a few from The Flash spun off into their own time-hopping escapade, Legends of Tomorrow, and even Supergirl, a show that started off at CBS was quickly merged into this mammoth universe.

With all these balls being thrown around, you knew that this year...

A number of distinguished guests, including Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, have attended a ceremony to mark the unveiling of the statue of Indian national icon Mahatma Gandhi. Mr Bachchan, along with British Prime Minister David Cameron, Indian Finance Minister Shri Arun Jaitle, Lord Meghnad Desai; and Gandhi’s grandson Gopalkrishna Gandhi, attended the event on Saturday morning in London’s Parliament Square. The statue unveiling coincides with the 100th anniversary of Gandhi’s return to India from South Africa, when he officially commenced India’s campaign for freedom against British rule.

The life of Christ is immortalized on film again in Son of God.

The movie is from the same team behind the three-Emmy Award nominated History Channel miniseries The Bible, including director/co-writer Christopher Spencer, co-writers Richard Bedser (Gettysburg), Colin Swash (TV’s The Queen) and Nic Young (Saving Ronald Reagan). Portuguese actor Diogo Morgado (Miami Blue) also portrays Jesus in both.

Son of God follows the Gospel of John’s telling of Christ’s life and includes a score by Oscar- and Grammy-winning composer Hans Zimmer (12 Years a Slave).

Like The Passion of Christ, this PG-13 religious film wowed moviegoers more than critics, getting 76% approval compared to 22%, according to Rotten Tomatoes. Son of God grossed a respectable $60 million in theaters.

The Blu-ray and DVD carry these special features:
