I've had SO many requests for a Working With Red fan casting, so I decided to actually do a little recon and decide who I would cast in a live-action adaptation.Please let me know if you guys agree, or if you have any better suggestions!
REMINDER: I chose individuals who have NOT played their respective characters in existing adaptations (which made Barry Allen and Oliver Queen very difficult for me to cast ㅠ.ㅠ)
.
OLIVER QUEEN / GREEN ARROW: played by Matt Barr / Travis Van Winkle
I could not choose between the two because they are so freaking similar; I contemplated Justin Hartley first before discovering he played Oliver Queen in Smallville (never seen).
DINAH LANCE / BLACK CANARY: played by Blake Lively
I would have chosen our Canary Queen Katie Cassidy, but I feel Lively would absolutely do justice playing Dinah. Plus, I can definitely see the relationship Lively's Dinah would develop with (Y/N).
ROY HARPER / RED ARROW: played by LUCAS TILLI sincerely did not want to cast Roy because he is one of the hardest to get right. I would have loved to keep Colten Haynes for this role. HOWEVER, I am obsessed with Till's expressional duality, and he has the right look for Roy--right down to the stocky build, topaz irises, and strawberry blonde locks. Plus, this boy with short spiked hair is just-- 🤑 The only other actor who came up a close second was Colin Ford.
