The superhero movie genre is no different, with studios and talent taking to Twitter and other social media platforms to promote content and digitally connect with audiences. For fans of superhero movies, this can be a wonderful thing. Long gone are the days of settling for a couple trailers, some junket interviews, and then the final film to figure out whats going on with the movies in your preferred genre. Superhero celebrities are taking you along for the ride with big announcements, photos from the set, and detailed accounts of the promotional tours for their respective films.

In addition to having the coolest Twitter handle of anyone on this list, Amell is always happy to take followers on set with him, which comes in very handy right now with filming of the Arrow and The Flash crossover episodes currently underway. If thats not enough, Amell uses his social media prowess to fight bigger, real-life villains like cancer. He doesnt just play a hero on TV.
