Arrow: 10 Things You Didn't Know About Stephen Amell

9. His Cousin Is Firestorm

If you watched The Flash and were wondering who that bloke looking a lot like Stephen Amell was, well it probably was him, because he appeared in a few episodes. But then if you were still watching and wondered who that other bloke looking a lot like Stephen Amell was, it was his cousin Robbie, who plays Ronnie/Firestorm on the show. The pair bear a rather close family resemblance, and did finally get the chance to share the screen during the penultimate episode of The Flash€™s first season, Rogue Air. They were quite close growing up, and in Robbie€™s words were €œphenomenal€ at playing beer pong together. Maybe an idea for a future crossover?
