The CW's Arrow has successfully brought a comic book character to life on the small screen, and the spinoff series The Flash will build on that success. But the Arrow himself, Stephen Amell, does not want to stop there. He wants Green Lantern.
Amell appeared at Fan Expo Canada and the topic of the movies Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League arose. But as usual, he expressed his pride in what DC is doing on television.
"We are creating a Justice League on TV for us," Amell said, as transcribed by Comic Book Resources. "I don't think there is a logistical reality to us participating in the feature side. That being said, I never wanted to have to feel like the show was justified, just because we participated in the movie. I don't think my character would participate on the cinematic side. What's that saying? Is it six seasons and a movie? Our show right now has me, Arsenal, Flash. There's going to be Firestorm and Atom. The Justice League elements of it are very present on our shows already."
The conversation then turned to how Green Lantern could fit into Arrow. "Now, boy we've referenced Ferris Air a lot," Amell said. "It would be really cool to have Green Lantern. Hopefully, that happens. I have no inside information, unless I do."
For more from Amell, including a story about his cousin Robiie Amell's getting a job on The Flash, head over to Comic Book Resources.
