Andrew [Kreisberg] is such a Whovian, so if you were to say to him right now, ‘Number one guest star actor/actress, who would it be?’ Clearly it would be Matt Smith. I can tell you that if there was even the faintest chance that he is available, he would be hired immediately. They would probably hire him to take my job, they love Doctor Who so much. – Stephen Amell, star of the CW’s Arrow.

I knew it. The creators of Arrow have already organized a small Whovian reunion by hiring John Barrowman and Alex Kingston as recurring characters, but they’ve got a lot of work to do if they want to complete the whole set. They’re in luck, though, as Matt Smith already has some experience playing another DC superhero.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
