Green Arrow the Movie, anyone?

DCEU THAT I THINK FITS THE TIMELINE:

Bradley Cooper as Green Arrow

Katheryn Winnick as Black Canary

DCEU WITH THE TIMELINE I THINK DOESN'T FIT:

Oscar Isaac as Green Arrow

Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Black Canary

BATTINSON-VERSE

Sam Claflin as Green Arrow

Teresa Palmer as Black Canary

The problem is Jurnee was cast as Black Canary
 
I’d love a Green Arrow film in the DCEU, a proper GA film, not the tv series version. My choice would be Garrett Hedlund.
 
I would definitely want one since he's probably my favorite superhero.

Of course for a film. That's what the thread is about.

Garret Hedlund is a good pick. But I think Charlie Hunnam would be even better for Oliver.
 
Weird as it sounds, but when I read GA comics, he’s always had Brad Pitt’s voice in my head. Lol

Love both actors for Oliver but if I had to choose, I would go with Garrett Hedlund as Oliver Queen
 
Oliver's not that hard to cast. Plenty of dashing blondies out to be found. But I am curious what itch a prospective GA movie could possibly scratch that the TV shows haven't covered at some point.

If they were going to redo Black Canary, I'd want Florence Pugh. I almost fancast her beforehand but thought she was a little young at the time.

TV Oliver Queen on Arrow was pretty different from comic Oliver Queen. Oliver Queen on arrow was very serious and tortured like Batman. Comic Oliver Queen has a more well rounded personality. Comic Green Arrow can be serious but he also has a sense of humour.

I also think Green Arrows villains were often not used that well on Arrow. Count Vertigo is one of Green Arrows top foes and has some character depth thanks to writers like John Ostrander using him in his Suicide Squad run. Ostrander add stuff like making Vertigo bipolar. Both versions of Vertigo on arrow were just generic drug dealers.
 
Bradley Cooper as Green Arrow would be great. I just wanna see that guy lead an action franchise.

I also think Boyd Holbrook could do a good job, assuming he can shake his southern accent. Maybe not as a lead though, but just as a supporting character, like in the next Suicide Squad movie.

For Ollie, I like guys with an edge, but who also have that likeable roguish Han Solo personality. Guys like Amell (and Hedlund) don't really have that imo.

I’m definitely up for this. And it should be comic accurate, not a super serious Batman rip-off like he was on Arrow. The problem is that he would be very polarizing and the Fox News crowd would lose their collective minds if he were done the way he is portrayed in the comics. I can just heard the complaints about “Hollyweird liberals forcing their views to indoctrinate our society” if we got an accurate Oliver.
 
I think Hedlund would do well as the rich, thrill-seeking, liberal activist from the north west Green Arrow.

It must be someone talented too

Right on spot. He will be perfect in that way.

And going for something more similar to the Arrowverse version, Charlie Hunnam could work very well.
 
I’d love to see GA on screen (I still remember the days when that Super Max script was floating around and would still love to see a movie like that on screen).

In the meantime, I wouldn’t mind Arrow being introduced in a Harley-verse/BOP sequel. He can be that corner of the universe’s Batman, so to speak. Take them all to Star City.

Green Arrow: Jack Reynor

Btw, I was very happy with Jurnee’s portrayal of Canary.

I really like this
 
Then how would you explain the race change
Even if I were to keep the race similarly, for this particular type of BC, in BOP, I think I'd lean to Gugu Mbatha Raw.
 
If we take a look at a rebooted Black Canary with Teresa Palmer playing the character, which actor would be the best Green Arrow to her, in terms of chemistry and acting?
Charlie Hunnam or Garret Hedlund?
 
Charlie Hunnam talked about his name being mentioned for Green Arrow
