On Friday, The CW officially announced that they would not be moving forward with Green Arrow and the Canaries, the Arrow spinoff that aired a backdoor pilot as part of that series’ eighth and final season nearly one year ago. The series would have followed Katherine McNamara’s Mia Queen/Green Arrow alongside Katie Cassidy as Laurel Lance/Black Siren and Juliana Harkavy as Dinah Drake/Black Canary in the year 2040. Now, McNamara is speaking out about the news, sharing that she is “heartbroken” Mia’s journey will not continue.
Needless to say, I am heartbroken… would’ve loved to go on the journey with #MiaSmoak. Thanks to everyone for their love and support. #GreenArrowandtheCanaries #OlicityBaby #GreenArrow @TheCW 🖤🏹💚 https://t.co/nGg66pd9Pt pic.twitter.com/5ZIlOpqFvq
From Blackstar to Star City, thank you for letting me be a part of your story…even for a little while…✵💚🏹What seemed a daunting hood to fill soon felt like family, and I have nothing but love and gratitude for everyone who was a part of bringing her to life. #GreenArrow pic.twitter.com/6y9WDz4mLQ
