Justice League dream team: Who should join the DCU's revamped roster?
Green Arrow - Alexander Ludwig
Look, I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Alexander Ludwig would make a fantastic Batman. But for the sake of this fan cast, let’s put him in the role of Oliver Queen, a.k.a. Green Arrow. This guy has already shown he can hang with DC royalty—remember when he stood side by side with THE Arrow, Stephen Amell? He looked right at home playing Amell’s baby-faced brother in Heels. The chemistry was there, and Ludwig definitely proved he could handle the superhero vibes.
And let’s not forget his performance in Vikings. Seriously, it’s criminally underrated. He totally nails that rough-around-the-edges hero vibe that Green Arrow needs—someone who’s charming but also has the emotional depth to dive into Ollie’s darker moments. Just picture Ludwig rocking that iconic goatee, dropping sarcastic one-liners while firing off arrows, and taking down the corrupt elite of Star City. He’s got the physicality, charisma, and just the right amount of swagger to bring Oliver Queen to life in the new DCU.
Ludwig's Green Arrow would be the perfect mix of fearless vigilante and relatable billionaire with a cause. He’d bring a fun but layered take on Ollie that audiences could get behind—whether he's taking down villains or making us laugh with his dry wit. It's about time we see Green Arrow in the spotlight, and Ludwig’s the guy to do it.
