No. I say this in the most respectful, kind, realistic way…we really, really milked that cow. Like, c'mon. You evolve, you grow, you…I love learning and I love acting, but also, I started in features and I'm stepping back into [them]. I'm directing this movie with Marina Studios that I'm also producing called Daddy issues. I'm writing and tapping into this creative side of me that I've never had time to because I've been acting. I've loved acting my whole life, but I want to grow.
It's not that I wouldn't have loved for the show to go [ahead] because I loved working with everyone, but let's do something different!
As Cassidy pointed out herself, the superhero genre has been extremely prevalent in all types of media for the past decade. Not only has the Arrowverse been extremely popular over the years, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been increasing in popularity alongside it as well. Many reports from fellow actors, directors and even audiences from recent times have commented on this issue, wishing to move on to another topic within today's media. The Arrowverse has also drastically grown since Arrow came on the air, with The CW currently working on several shows set in the universe.
With this recent information from Cassidy herself, it seems that Green Arrow and the Canaries may not have had much of a chance moving forward on the network after all, on top of the pandemic. Furthermore, while she's finished with the Arrowverse, it's clear that the actress' career is far from over with her various upcoming, impressive projects. With this cancellation on top of other recent shows in the Arrowverse, could it be that Arrow's legacy is coming to an end?
