‘Justice League’ Movie Cast: Actor Says 'It Doesn’t Have To Be A Movie' [VIDEOS & Details]
With all the hype surrounding the potential Justice League movie, the actor portraying Oliver Queen on the CW's Arrow has fueled belief that there may not be a movie at all.
In an interview with Digital Spy, Stephen Arnell, who has been portraying Green Arrow/Oliver Queen on the show since its premiere in 2012, revealed that there's nothing out there that says DC would combine all of their Justice League characters together in a movie, especially since show producers are working to bring a lot of them to the hit show.
"Any opportunity to be a part of the Justice League movie as Green Arrow or otherwise, it would be really exciting, but it doesn't have to be a movie," he said. "We are doing a-we're working in concert with DC and the better we do, the more successful our show is, the more opportunities we're going to get to perhaps have members of the Justice League on our show."

Some of the expanded cast on the show includes one member of the Justice League-The Flash. Glee's Grant Gustin landed the role a few weeks ago, and will appear in three episodes during the show's second season, with the potential for a spin-off show of his own. There will also be a new Black Canary, played by Caity Lotz, and plenty villains looking to give the Green Arrow trouble.
According to MTV, the actor also says that the expansion of the cast to include more heroes and villains shows how much it has grown from the beginning.
"I got the inkling, sort of the itch, to re-familiarize myself [with old episodes], and it's an entirely different show, he said. "There's like a bad guy of the week, there's voiceover, which [Oliver's bodyguard] Diggle became my voiceover, basically. There are so many aspects of the show that are different."
Arrow returns Wednesday Oct. 9 at 8:00 p.m. on The CW.
