Deadline is reporting that The CW has found its Green Arrow for the upcoming Arrow pilot. Stephen Amell will play the billionaire vigilante who fights crimes with a bow and arrow.
David Nutter is directing the pilot, written/executive produced by Andrew Kreisberg, Greg Berlanti and Marc Guggenheim. Amell is a familiar face at the CW, where he has done arcs on The Vampire Diaries and 90210.
Since the pilot hasn’t been filmed, there’s no word if Amell will become a more familiar face to comic book fans, or not.
