10 Characters Who Must Be Introduced In The DC Extended Universe

8. Green Arrow

Arrow reached its end on The CW after eight seasons, and as fun as it was to follow Oliver Queen's story there, a big screen version of the character could do so much more with Green Arrow. His dynamic with characters like Batman and Black Canary has a tonne of potential, whether it's clashing with Robert Pattinson's Dark Knight or meeting Jurnee Smollett's Bird of Prey.

Once upon a time, Warner Bros. was developing a "Supermax" movie that was set to follow Green Arrow after he was wrongly imprisoned for murder and then forced to escape from a supermax prison (hence the title). Along the way, he was going to clash with all manner of villains, including Lex Luthor and The Joker, so the studio revisiting this concept would be no bad thing.

This could be standalone in nature or part of the wider DC Extended Universe, but after so many years spent on television, Green Arrow needs to get his due in a movie. Warner Bros. could even use this as an opportunity to reinvent the hero after nearly a decade spent on The CW.
