One
of the biggest complaints that fans have about The CW's hit series
Arrow is that Oliver doesn't wear a mask like in the comic books,
just some plain black pain around his eyes, well the producers have
heard your complaints and this December Oliver will be wearing a mask
while fighting crime in Starling City.
"Conceptually,
it was something we wanted to do because Oliver himself is evolving
as the Arrow– from vigilante to hero, sort of from Arrow to Green
Arrow — and we wanted to see that progression in his costume as
well,” said executive producer Andrew Kreisberg. “As Oliver is
embracing being a hero, being a hero means stepping out of the dark
and being more of a symbol, so he has to stake steps to conceal his
identity more.”
“It’s going to allow the Arrow to interact with
people who don’t know his identity in a much more organic way than
having him constantly keep his head down."
The
mask's debut is set to be in the 11th episode of Arrow, and it won't appear out of thin air:
“He
doesn’t just put on a mask. It’s actually a big plot point in an
episode, and there really is a story behind, not only the need for
the mask but also who provides him with it,” Kreiseberg said. “It’s
going to be a little bit of a surprise, and once they see how the
mask comes into creation, I think people will be really excited about
it.”
