Don't forget new episode tonight! Introduction (First Appearance) of Barry Allen aka The Flash!
"Arrow" may just be the best show on television right now.
Only in Season 2, "Arrow" has done nothing but improve ever since it premiered in the fall of 2012. And it's not like it was a bad show then either. Now "Arrow" is readying a spinoff and has become one of the single best dramas on television today.
Here are 10 reasons why "Arrow" is on top......
Just finished season 1 on Netflix. Anyone know where I can find episodes 1-4 of season 2 free? Everything I've found starts at Ep 5.
Jesse L. Martin joining The Flash!
Law & Order alum Jesse L. Martin is set to co-star opposite Grant Gustin in the CW pilot The Flash, based on the DC comic.The project, from Warner Bros TV and Berlanti Productions, is an origin story about Barry Allen aka The Flash (Gustin), a Central City assistant police forensics investigator who arrives in Starling to look into a series of unexplained robberies that may have a connection to a tragedy in his past. Martin will play Detective West, an honest, blue-collar cop who is a surrogate father to Allen. This is a familiar territory for Martin, who is probably best known for his nine-year stint as Detective Ed Green on NBCs Law & Order. He had been approached for several pilots before choosing The Flash.
Stephen Amell Says Hes Had Discussions About a Justice League Appearance
Back in November, "Arrow" Executive Producer Greg Berlanti said there had been no discussions regarding connecting the Warner Bros. DC cinematic universe with the DC-based shows being made for The CW, but that may have changed. Speaking with Fandango (via CBM), Oliver Queen himself, Stephen Amell, revealed he has had talks at the studio level about making a big screen appearance as the emerald archer.
"All we have to do for something like that to happen, or even be a possibility, is continue to take care of business with our show and then we put ourselves in a position but the important thing is our show. I have had discussions, but I think the gestation process for this project is a lot slower than most people think. I mean, they haven't even shot the next one. They haven't even shot a frame of the movie before the movie everyone thinks is the Justice League movie!"
Though having discussions on the matter is no indicator of a sure thing, this is certainly an exciting development. Would you like to see "Arrow" sync up with Man of Steel and the upcoming Batman vs. Superman? Sound off below!
:rock:Looks like "Speedy" is about to be born. And instead of heroin, it's mira-however you spell it. I like the story the writers are creating. It has ties to the comic book basis, but it's its own unique universe. The proper amount of homage to go with a fresh, new story.
Rick Cosnett & Danielle Panabaker To Co-Star In CW Pilot The Flash
The Vampire Diaries Rick Gosnett and Danielle Panabaker :rock: (Shark) are set to co-star opposite Grant Gustin and Jesse L. Martin in the CW pilot The Flash, based on the DC comic. The project, from Warner Bros TV and Berlanti Productions, is an origin story about Barry Allen aka The Flash (Gustin), a Central City assistant police forensics investigator who arrives in Starling to look into a series of unexplained robberies that may have a connection to a tragedy in his past. Cosnett plays star Detective Eddie Thawne, a recent transfer to the Central City Police Department, whose past is a mystery and who harbors a dark secret. Panabaker plays Caitlin Snow, a highly intelligent bioengineering expert who lost her fiancé during an explosion at S.T.A.R. Labs. Originally envisioned as a backdoor pilot episode of Arrow, Flash will now film a regular pilot directed by David Nutter, a move clearly geared toward a series pickup.
Gosnett, who is recurring heavily on the CW flagship drama Vampire Diaries, is repped by Resolution, managers Martin Berneman and Meghan Schumacher, and attorney Derek Kroeger. The CW has a tradition of taking actors who have popped as guest stars on one of its established series and cast them in a pilot. That happened with Arrow star Stephen Amell who previously did arcs on both The Vampire Diaries and 90210. Panabaker, repped by UTA and John Carrabino, had a recurring role on Justified.
