GREEN ARROW Animated Short In Development


Warner Brothers Animation has announced that a Green Arrow animated short is in development as part of its DC Showcase series. Speaking to Comics Continuum, supervising producer Alan Burnett confirmed that the archery master is next in line for the cartoon treatment. The exec also revealed that a fourth short is in the works, but did not divulge which character it will focus on.

The DC Showcase series was unveiled last summer when Warner Bros. outlined plans to release shorts based on Jonah Hex and The Spectre. During the interview, Burnett disclosed details of the upcoming Spectre project.

Burnett said,

“[The Spectre] is not an easy character, because he’s the spirit of vengeance and [he] can do anything, Steve [Niles] has written an interesting story about him and I think people will like it. It’s very different from other superhero stuff that we’ve done.”

The Spectre short is included with the Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths DVD that will be released on February 23rd. Official release dates for the other shorts have yet to be announced.
