Arrow's Costume Revealed
Has the CW learned its lesson? Last year, CW released a promotional picture of their version of Wonder Woman's updated costume that caused a fan frenzy (in a bad way) which ultimately lead to the show being cancelled before it aired an episode. This year, it appears they are leaning on the side of caution, with Arrow. Tells us what you think.
Here’s a first look at the new The CW’s pilot ARROW, starring Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen and Arrow. Arrow’s suit was designed by three-time Oscar®-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood.
After
being marooned for five years on a remote island, former billionaire playboy
Oliver Queen returns with a mysterious agenda and a lethal set of new skills
that he uses in a war on crime.
ARROW pilot director/executive producer David Nutter said: “When
I directed the pilot for Smallville, I knew that making Clark Kent relatable
would be the key to audiences believing in him as a hero. ARROW is a different
show — darker and harder-edged — but it’s the same core idea. We’re creating a
real, believable world in which Oliver Queen can do incredible things. Colleen
Atwood’s great work on the Arrow costume reflects that effort."
Based upon characters appearing in comic books and graphic
novels published by DC Comics, ARROW is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in
association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television.
