 Green Arrow Goyer told interviewers that Warner Brothers was very interested in any type of Green Arrow film, and "they seem to be interested in moving forward" with his idea. He originally thought up the storyline "as a supervillain-escape idea, and the idea was, well, we can either go Marvel or DC. And I talked to both of them, and I kind of said, 'Well, who can you give me?' ... For my money it was, if we went Marvel, it would be Captain America. If we went DC, maybe Green Arrow. And Green Arrow seemed like the best fit."
While Spider-Man and Superman are practically a given to draw in the profits, studios had remained skeptical that second-string heroes like Green Arrow could pack theaters. But, given the $300 million success of Iron Man, we're sure to see plenty of these type of movies coming out over the next few years.
