Actor
Matt Noble is getting ready to bring Ra's Al Ghul to the small screen in The CW's
Arrow, and according to Entertainment Weekly, he will be a major departure from
Chris Nolan's version from Batman Begins.
"Now that the Arrow/Flash
universe contains people with powers and contains the Mirakuru serum, it gives
us a bit more license to be a little more ‘comic book-y’ than certainly even
Christopher Nolan set out to do," teased the show's executive producer
Andrew Kreisberg about the leader of the League of Assassins.
Having a A-lister villain like Ra's
appearing in the show is a big event, but what brings him to Starling City?
"A lot of the themes for Oliver’s
journey that we were discussing this season are wrapped up in identity. Can he
be both Oliver Queen and the Arrow? A lot of that turned out to get tied up
with what we thought of Ra’s al Ghul and who he was and where he came from and
what his ultimate goals are. All of those things lined up perfectly."
Arrow returns on October 8.
