The planned Arrow spinoff, Green Arrow and The Canaries is not moving forward at The CW. Green Arrow and The Canaries aired as an episode of Arrow‘s final season in January.
The network and the studio explored the idea of the Green Arrow and the Canaries and The 100 prequel, which is still alive at the network, running jointly on the CW and WarnerMedia’s HBO Max. With all of the CW’s newer series, following the end of the output deal with Netflix, available on HBO Max, that was considered a viable possibility. It could still happen for The 100 prequel but the notion was dropped for The Canaries.
Starring Katherine McNamara, Katie Cassidy, and Juliana Harkavy, Green Arrow and the Canaries was set in 2040 in Star City and Mia Queen (McNamara) had everything she could have ever wanted. However, when Laurel (Cassidy) and Dinah (Harkavy) suddenly showed up in her life again, things took a shocking turn and her perfect world is upended. The interesting thing is that The CW didn’t give an exact reason why they passed on the spin-off. The options on the cast expired recently so they’re able to now pursue other projects.
