Stephen Amell thinks Arrow could “mature the same way Iron Man did for Marvel”

The much-talked about Justice League movie has one star in the bag – if they want him.

Arrow‘s Stephen Amell told SciFiNow exclusively that he would not only love to appear in the film, pencilled for 2015, but he would “sweep the floors when they were done!”

In the DC Comics, Green Arrow played a big part of the superhero team-up, but the hooded vigilante doesn’t command the same level of fame or recognition as the ‘S’ symbol. Amell thinks that could all change, though:

“I think that Green Arrow has an opportunity to mature in much the same way Iron Man did in the Marvel universe. He wasn’t necessarily a top level character, but because they made an Iron Man movie and it was successful, it vaulted him up and now he anchors the Avengers,” he says.

“It’s always up to what’s popular at the moment. Right now archery seems to be having a mini renaissance, so hopefully he can settle into a firm rotating member of the DC Justice League of America.”

Arrow Season 1 will be available to own 23 September 2013, pre-order it on DVD for £21.02 or on Blu-ray for £27.49 from Amazon.co.uk. Season 2 will air on Sky 1 later this year.
