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.
