For those of us who were massive fans of Smallville this is pretty amazing news. After the failed attempt of the Aqua Man pilot and the more recent Wonder Woman show DC and CW are at it again with a rather epic looking Green Arrow series.
In favor of leaving Smallville in the past no matter how good it was this wont be a spin off but an all new stand alone series.
So far the first season script is complete and a screen tests with Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen / Green Arrow in the series. What excites fans the most will be the addition of David Nutter to direct the pilot. David was the brains behind the Smallville pilot, Sarah Connor Chronicles and some of the bloodiest bits of Game of Thrones.
The new series is titled “Arrow” and is set to be darker than Smallville as Oliver Queen had a no mercy policy when it comes to crime.
Fans who wanted a Smallville spin off may be slightly disappointed but it’s likely some of his Smallville background will leak through.
