[TV] Manu Bennett Talks Playing Deathstroke on Arrow Posted by Larry Csonka on 01.28.2013
From gladiator to ruthless mercenary…
- Manu Bennett (Spartacus) recently spoke about playing Deathstroke on Arrow. Here is what he had to say…
"There's a very different style to Arrow than what there was to Spartacus. Even when I got there I had a discussion with the writer Andrew Kreisberg about what they wanted and they didn't want Crixus that's for sure, they wanted something original for the show. Arrow is reality based, it's here in the now....It's very fast moving action, it's a whole new techique that I'm learning with them. There's some simliatires (from Spartacus) in that I come onto the show against another strong character."
