“Arrow” will star Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen, a billionaire playboy, who is marooned on an island for five years. When he returns home, he has a mysterious agenda and a lethal set of skills that he uses in a war on crime. CW signed David Nutter to direct the pilot episode of this new series. The network trusts him after the success of his pilot for “Smallville”. Nutter recently spoke out about the project.
When I directed the pilot for ‘Smallville,’ I knew that making Clark Kent relatable would be the key to audiences believing in him as a hero. ‘Arrow’ is a different show — darker and harder-edged — but it’s the same core idea. We’re creating a real, believable world in which Oliver Queen can do incredible things. Colleen Atwood’s great work on the Arrow costume reflects that effort.

They foreshadowed for this show happening in the ending for "Smallville" so I fully expected that they were going to do this. I'm looking forward to this show and can't wait to see what they do with an amazing character. I'm thinking they may incorporate the Green Lantern/Hal Jordan character at some point because of their history in the Comics together and that would be something I would love to see.
