Green Arrow-Escape from Supermax

Pitched by writer Justin Marks in 2008, this could easily have been Batman-Escape from Supermax rather than Green Arrow. But it seemed like a fun idea for a superhero flick. Basically, it would have seen the Green Arrow exposed as Oliver Queen, framed for a crime, and sent to a supervillain prison. Then he'd have to ally himself with some villain he himself had locked up in order to escape and clear his name.

Apparently, the Pied Piper, Icicle, and Tattooed Man were all supposed to appear in the film, which was going to be filled with Easter-Eggs (most likely in order to set up a larger shared universe).

As we mentioned, this could have been a Batman flick, since the writer's main character was too generic to resemble the Green Arrow from the comic book. So, in a way, it’s understandable that the project was dropped.

Nonetheless, it does seem like an entertaining flick, especially considering the fact that Queen has to go up against a computer-controlled villain-type tht reorganizes itself every night.
