DC Comics and Warner Bros. have been doing a bang-up job recently bringing DC superheroes to the small screen with their hit show Arrow, and have been gearing up both a Flash spin-off series and the highly talked about Gotham, which will shed some light on Bruce Wayne’s earlier years in light of the show’s success.

If you’ve been enjoying Arrow so far, good news, the series has been picked up for a third season!

On Monday, Warner Bros. released the first image of Stephen Amell as Green Arrow from The CW’s Arrow pilot.

With each bit of news, I get even more excited about this show. In the first photo released from CW’s Arrow, we see our hero Green Arrow posed with hood up, head down, and bow locked by his side. While we can’t really get too many details from this image, we can speculate as much as we want to as to what this means for the show and how it will portray the main character. Now, you may not want to do that, but these kind of things make me the big bucks, so here we go!

You can see the first image from Arrow below.

Katie Cassidy has been announced as the lead female role in CW’s Green Arrow pilot, Arrow, as none other than Dinah Lance. Perfect….

In case you can’t tell, I’m elated with this news. Cassidy has been named as Dinah Lance. To those unaware, Dinah Lance is also known to those of comic book fans as Black Canary, the main love interest and super heroine bad-ass with super sonic voice. Now, will Black Canary actually show up in the show? I certainly hope so, but it’s just as likely that they will keep her as one of the city’s attorneys. Either way, I think Cassidy is a fantastic choice.

The CW has ordered a pilot entitled Arrow about DC Comics character Green Arrow and now, they’ve found their Oliver Queen in Stephen Amell.

Stephen Amell is a TV actor who has been in several shows ranging from a starring role in Hung to guest spots in shows like 90210 (2008), Heartland, Blue Mountain State, and Private Practice.
