"They Need Us A Lot More Than We Need Them": Arrow Star Calls Out DC Studios For Mixed Messages About The Arrowverse

Arrow star Stephen Amell calls out DC Studios for giving mixed messages about the Arrowverse as the new DC Universe moves forward. As DC Studios prepares to move in a new creative direction, studio co-leads James Gunn and Peter Safran have voiced plans for a new connected continuity. But as one franchise is rising, one ended, as The CW's Arrowverse recently came to a close.
However, with the Arrowverse having ended with The Flash series finale, the star that got the franchise started in 2012 is not thrilled with DC Studios. During a recent stream on Whatnot, Stephen Amell, who portrayed the Green Arrow for nearly a decade, spoke about the mixed messages he feels DC Studios is putting out. While he wishes nothing but the best for DC Studios, Amell shared the following:

I don't know, man. I don't know. Those guys... the DCEU, they need to decide if they think that they're better than television or if they want to participate. Because I get mixed messages, which to me just signals that, I don't know. You guys do your own thing. We did our thing ... first of all, I wish everyone nothing but the best. I want nothing more than amazing movies, but right now, they need us a lot more than we need them.
