Arrow
Speaking at MegaCon, Stephen Amell said he’d come back after the Arrow series finale if the creators wanted him.
I owe so much to them, so if five years from now they’re wrapping up Show X and they were like, ‘You know what would be the cherry on top of the sundae? Would you come back?’ What am I gonna say? No? It’s a shitty idea that I’d say no. You do what you can. I owe a lot to people, so if they need something from me, they can always have it.
Titanoboa
Constantin Film and JB Pictures are reportedly “fast-tracking development on an as-yet-untitled action-horror movie” about the Titanoboa, a prehistoric species of snake reaching lengths of up to 42-feet long.
