Katherine McNamara Talks Mia Taking Over As Green Arrow

Katherine McNamara is opening up about Mia taking over the Green Arrow after Oliver’s death.

If you missed it, the 24-year-old actress’ character was given her own suit and handed the legacy in the first part of the Crisis On Infinite Earths event.

“I think it’s really overwhelming for her,” Katherine shared with ET. “She’s certainly never thought of herself as a hero or being worthy of taking on that mantle, given her checkered past and her relationship with the vigilantes, and with this team… Creating that element of that redemption story that he has, she sort of mirrors that in a way.”

“And it’s something that she understands, you know, much in the same way that, in enjoying the show, I understand the legacy that Steven and/or Oliver had built,” she added. “It becomes a really interesting turn in the character, and having someone so different and yet so similar take on this mantle.”
