Even though there is some overlapping in casting for the DC universe between film and television, it seems like both sides have a concrete plan on where they want to go. But what does one star from TV have to say about the new movie universe?

Stephen Amell, who plays Green Arrow on CW's Arrow, spoke with AMC Movie Talk last week about the casting of Ezra Miller as the Flash in the movies and what he thought about the cinematic universe being created. As for Miller, he wasn't that thrilled.

"I thought that the way that Warner Bros. announced the slate of DC movies could have been handled better. And I think someone like Grant Gustin, who has just launched an iconic character like the Flash to record-breaking numbers, numbers that far-surpassed Arrow's numbers, he should have been given a wider berth than two episodes before another actor was announced to play his character," he said.

"All that being said, that's because I'm protective of Grant, and that's because I think producing 23 episodes of superhero television is more difficult than producing a feature film. And it's 23 episodes again, and again, and again."

He added that he was excited to see the cinematic universe and he felt like they had a good slate of movies for it.

"The plans that Warner Bros. has, and it's a great plan, overall, and DC has for the introduction to the Justice League of America and all the standalone films, is going to take place over the course of five to six years," he said.

"So who knows what could happen. I've had some great conversations with Geoff Johns, who is DC's Chief Creative Officer. We had this conversation shortly after these announcements were made, and I came away from the conversation feeling great."

Could Amell be hinting at his character joining the movies? It seems like could be a moot point.
