ARROW Stunt Coordinator Teases A Scene In Season 7 That Pushed The Limits Of What's Allowed On The CW

Arrow Season 7 is already set to feature some big changes, as Oliver Queen spends time in prison, but it will also apparently push the envelope in regards to the kind of content allowed on the CW network.

Compared to most of the other Arrowverse shows, Arrow has a much darker tone, but as a series on the CW network, it can't feature the type of graphic content seen in the superhero programs that stream on Netflix.

However, it sounds like Season 7 will push the boundaries of what's allowed on the network, as Arrow's stunt coordinator, James Bamford, revealed in an interview with Newsarama that the crew had to have a lengthy conversation with the CW's censors.


"Beth and I had a phone call with BNSP, which is our censors... a very lengthy phone call about a particular scene that we never had before. So we are really trying to push the limits on the show in the gritty factor. We are trying to go as far as you can go within the confines of our network and what is expected of us and what we can and can’t do. We are not on Netflix so we will never be able to X, Y, and Z, but we are damn sure going to try."

No other details were revealed about the scene in question, but star Stephen Amell has already teased an epic fight scene for the Season 7 premiere, calling it his third favorite action sequence in the series' history.

But what do you folks think? Are you excited to see what Arrow has in store for us? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

@MrCamw1 -
Yeah, he was great (and underused) in Season 2. I'm surprised they didn't bring him back sooner.

Then again, the show kind of stopped having a recurring rogues gallery after Season 3. The same thing happened on The Flash after Season 2, where it mostly stopped bringing back villains and mainly focused on the overall arc of the seasons.

@Darkknight2149 - very underutilized. Also from what I was told they killed him off in the comic series running alongside the show so I was surprised that they brought him bak in the trailer.

@MrCamw1 - So many characters have been forgotten, im hoping to see Huntress again

@dracula - I like the idea of Huntress but I wasnt a fan of the actress who played her. That'just me though. Maybe she comes back and blows my mind.

@MrCamw1 - was he a part of the Suicide Squad in season 2?

@HeavyMetal4Life - yes he was.

@MrCamw1 - then that's probably why he hasn't returned until now. Freaking DC/WB...

MrCamw1 - 8/17/2018, 7:41 PM
@HeavyMetal4Life - but it's not like they used him in the films. Plus they kept cupid around of all people.

@MrCamw1 - forgot about her. Who knows, knowing WB/DC they were probably working on a Bronze Tiger film, lol.

I still want Ragman to come back, disappointed he didnt last season when they said he would.

@HeavyMetal4Life - shite I completely forgot about Ragman. He was great in season 5. Was it just me or before he left it seemed like CW was gonna ship him and Mr Terrific together?! I kind of had that feeling.
