There has been some speculation as to whether David Ramsey's character on
The CW series Arrow is in fact Green Lantern John Stewart or not.
Speaking to Comic Book the actor didn't confirmed the rumors, but didn't exactly
denied them either.
"I cannot say “yes,” and I cannot say, “no.” I’m serious! I do know that there is serious
discussion about whether or not this guy becomes John Stewart. But, I mean,
I’ll say this: it is top secret. David Ramsey has asked them, and they’re like,
“we’re working on some stuff.” If that’s the case, it’s gonna be huge. This is
the stuff they want to avoid. I think they don’t want anybody to know yet and
they haven’t even told me. They have told me that they are thinking about it
and they are considering it. Greg Berlanti told me that. Andrew and Marc have
told me that. I haven’t spoken to Geoff Johns about it, yet. But that’s the
word from people directly involved in Arrow- that they’re working on something.
Here’s the truth of
it: if I knew, I would tell you I knew and I’m not at liberty to tell you that.
I probably wouldn’t tell you anyway! I would at least tell you that I know. But
I honestly do not know."
Despite the similarities, Diggle is named after Green
Arrow comic book writer Andy Diggle, so making his last name be Stewart would
tarnish that homage, plus the character was just introduced in the comics and
shares the same universe as Green Lantern John Stewart. On the other we have
Grant Gustin playing Barry Allen, aka Flash on the small screen, while Ezra
Miller is getting up to speed on his comics to play the same character on the
upcoming big screen adaptation, so…What do you think?
