Pre-production for The CW's Green Arrow TV series is well underway. The network has now signed actress Susanna Thompson (Kings) to take on the role of Moira Queen, Oliver's mother, in Arrow.
Thompson's credits include TV shows like Cold Case, NCIS, Kings, The Book of Daniel, Once and Again. She also starred in a variety of films, including Dragonfly with Kevin Costner, and Little Giants.
Thompson will join actors Stephen Amell and David Ramsey for the David Nutter-directed pilot. The project is being written by Andrew Kreisberg, who will produce Arrow alongside Greg Berlanti and Marc Guggenheim.
The pilot follows reformed playboy, Oliver Queen (Amell), as he deals with the loss of his father and a traumatic experience that inspires him to suit up as the vigilante crimefighter Green Arrow. The show is said to be loosely based on the DC Comics character.
