Sneak Preview of CW's Upcoming Green "Arrow" Show

The CW network released a sneak preview of the upcoming show, "Arrow", based on DC Comic's legendary archer, Green Arrow. The brief video includes a Rocky-style montage and some voice over dialogue. The show appears to not be related to 'Smallville' where the character of Green Arrow also appeared. It also seems to be darker in tone than 'Smallville'. With a young hot looking cast, as is required in CW shows, we'll see if the series takes off. CW had enough confidence to order an entire season based on it's pilot. Here's a look:

Here's the official description from CW: (Think Batman with a bow and arrow.)

After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. When he returns home to Starling City, his devoted mother Moira, much-beloved sister Thea, and best friend Tommy welcome him home, but they sense Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. While Oliver hides the truth about the man he's become, he desperately wants to make amends for the actions he took as the boy he was. Most particularly, he seeks reconciliation with his former girlfriend, Laurel Lance. As Oliver reconnects with those closest to him, he secretly creates the persona of Arrow - a vigilante – to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory. By day, Oliver plays the role of a wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be - flanked by his devoted chauffeur/bodyguard, John Diggle - while carefully concealing the secret identity he turns to under cover of darkness. However, Laurel's father, Detective Quentin Lance, is determined to arrest the vigilante operating in his city. Meanwhile, Oliver's own mother, Moira, knows much more about the deadly shipwreck than she has let on – and is more ruthless than he could ever imagine.
