Speaking to SciFiNow, "Arrow" actor Stephen Amell shared that he believes Green Arrow could be the next B-list superhero to breakout into mainstream media similar to how Robert Downey Jr.'s "Iron Man" exploded in 2008 to become a pop culture phenomenon. Said Amell, “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."

Amell also told SciFiNow that he'd love to co-star in a "Justice League" film and that he'd even sweep the floor when filming wrapped. Commenting further, Amell added, "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.”
