9 Superheroes Who Really Should Have Had A Movie By Now

5. Green Arrow (DC Comics)

After the undeniably huge success of the Arrow television series, it really does make you wonder why a Green Arrow movie hasn't been made at this point. Oliver Queen was also a very popular character in the Smallville television series, further highlighting the live action potential of the character If there's one thing that the Avengers movie proved, it's that street-level characters can hang with super-powered foes and not appear redundant alongside the likes of Thor and Hulk. Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow all played an integral part in the defeat of Loki and the Chitauri. With that in mind, a Justice League movie is inevitable and the team will likely include super-powered characters like Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Flash - with only Batman as the definite street-level member. He needs some street-level backup like the Avengers smaller-hitters had and Green Arrow is the obvious choice. He's been a staple member of the superhero team since the 1960s and, along with his own live action success on television, the success of the Batman movies (which show that street-level DC action is very much appreciated by audiences) and the huge success of his recent appearances in comic books, it really is a mystery why a movie hasn't already been made.
