The CW to pick up Green Arrow?

Reports indicate The CW is likely to pick up Green Arrow as a series.

The CW’s pilot Green Arrow is virtually a “lock” to be picked up by the broadcaster for a full season. The pilot stars Stephen Amell (Private Practice, Vampire Diaries, Dante’s Cove) in the title role.

The CW has been eying a new comic book series since Smallville bowed out after a mammoth ten years; the superman drama was a hugely popular part of its schedule and the broadcaster hopes to replicate its success with Green Arrow. The official news about Green Arrow – being picked up for a series – will likely be made later this month.

It has been confirmed that The CW has renewed 90210, Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries for new seasons.
