I feel rather stupid but I only just realized that it's a bow on the logo, not a random squiggly line...

 

[Hunter Rider]

He was a recurring character on B:TBATB.

I never actually watched that toon, how difficult do you think he'd be to translate to live action on TV as opposed to a movie?

 

[Primal Slayer]

Well script is done, they start up in a few weeks, can't wait see this years poster.

 

[John Locke]

I don't know why but I'm getting a Prometheus vibe from Seth.

 

[Boy Scout]

That particular interpretation? It'd be hard. He was very cartoony (which fit the tone of the series).

In general, I can't imagine he's any harder to adapt than any other character.

 

[The_Mighty_Thor]

He'd be incredibly easy to translate to live action. It's just a super imposed image with some transparency.

 

[Nathan]

Maybe they could mix the Gentleman Ghost, with Batman Beyond's Ian Peek.

Devon Aoki Joins CW’s ‘Arrow’

Devon Aoki has landed a major recurring guest role on the hit CW drama Arrow from Warner Bros TV. Aoki will play Tatsu Yamashiro, a character that first appeared in the Green Arrow origin series graphic novels published by DC Comics. She is a Japanese martial arts expert who wields a deadly sword, a blade from which her codename Katana is derived. In Arrow, Tatsu will be one of Oliver’s mentors in the flashbacks, and a critical influence on his journey to eventually become The Arrow of present day. Aoki, repped by Schiffco, appeared in features including 2 Fast 2 Furious, Sin City, D.E.B.S. and War.

Katana.

 

[Rorschach2012]

Katana! hell yeah!

 

[Drz]

Huzzah!!!

Played by Miho from Sin City no less!

 

[vantheman77]

I wanted Katana in Arrow for a long time and I got my wish. I hope she's in the present and joins Team Arrow or forms the Outsiders with Roy Harper.

 

[Paradox1]

I can't say I've seen many of her movies. But judging from her filmography she's a good pick

 

[Dr Lee]

Guess they'll ignore the fact they had her brother on the show in the first season playing himself then?

Oh, I don't know, most movies/TV I've seen tend to address that sort of thing head-on.

"Nononono, I know what you guys are thinking! But I swear, I'm not George Clooney! I just look alot like him."

Devon Aoki Cast As Katana In Arrow Season 3

 

[Rorschach2012]

that's pretty much perfect casting. i can't wait to see this!

 

[Nathan]

I like the news of Katana, but I don't really care about Devon Aoki.

 

[Herolee10]

Well I guess it won't be long before katana joins the oliver's pity/comfort-sex list

 

[vantheman77]

She's making history as the first live-action Katana.

 

[antsman41]

I still want Lady Shiva and David Cain...

 

[Loki882]

Yes, Lady Shiva, Cheshire, Richard Dragon, David Cain, etc. But let's take it one step at a time, Katana being on the show is awesome. I wonder if they'll give her a costume? Not that ridiculous New 52 one, but something nonetheless.

 

[JC00]

Guess they'll ignore the fact they had her brother on the show in the first season playing himself then?

Been reading some other forums, there are way too many people complaining about this.

 

[Sawyer]

Yeah, honestly, how is that something that even remotely matters in this situation? Ohhh, her brother! Who gives a crap about her brother? He was a cameo appearance at best two seasons ago! This isn't exactly going to break the universe.
