ARROW Originally Wanted Ted Kord Not Ray Palmer
A throwaway line about why they are using Atom in Arrow and teases a possible future for Ted Kord in another possible porperty.
Arrow obviously had a ComicCon panel today and while most have focused on the trailer and "Oracle" news I saw another interesting tidbit of information when asked about the use of Atom in the show to be played by Brandon Routh. Producer Andrew Kreisberg said "We actually originally asked for Ted Kord," Kreisberg said of the character. "But DC has other plans for him, so they said, 'How about Ray Palmer?' And we said that would work even better."
The question I pose to the community is what plans do you think they have for Ted Kord if Arrow could not have him? Let the speculation begin and thank you for reading my article
