People usually know that TV shows and movies consist of actors.

You give people more credit than I do.

Yeah I beg to differ on that.

Even though it feels like it would make more sense to appear on the Flash first this is awesome news to hear. Maybe with Sara gone back to the League of Shadows The Atom will replace her as a member of Ollie's team.

So does anyone smell full in Arrowverse JL team being created over time?

I expect there to be a Justice League on Arrow just like on Smallville but this time I think we will see them more and they will actually be called the Justice League by other characters.

Maybe I meet smarter people than you do.

I hope he has brown hair. Would make him look more like comic book Ray Palmer and make him look less like Clark Kent.

So I suppose this version of Ray will not be in a relationship with Jean Loring , as her actress is nearly twenty years older than Routh.

Was Jean Loring on Arrow?? I must've completely missed that...

I think a reference to her was tossed in during an episode, but I'm not sure.

It says in the article itsself that he's going to be a romance for felicity.

She is Ollie's mother's lawyer.

Played by the still-rockin-hot-in-that-Mary-Ann-from-Gilligan's-Island-sort-of-way Teryl Rothery. Far as I'm concerned, there's not reason he shouldn't date her. Although I do doubt they will go there.

Ooooh yeah! Thanks.

Well I'm in High School so that might explain the dumb people

Hopefully, CW will have a Justice League again soon. Smallville had its own Justice League for quite some time. That vampire diaries guy almost played Bruce Wayne on Smallville but Smallville could not get the approval to use Bruce Wayne on TV.

This is really going to confuse the hell out of the casual fan. "Why the hell is Superman calling himself Ray Palmer?!?"

Maybe a few people, but on the whole, I doubt it. Nobody worried that Thor used to be a sociology major in another movie, or that Voltagg used to be the Punisher.

Rosario Dawson, who is nothing if not identifiable, has something like four or five different comics characters to her credit at this point.

I also love Teryl, but I can't see that ever happening on the show.
