Is there anything Stephen Amell can’t do?
The actor who brings Oliver Queen, a.k.a. “Arrow,” to life on the CW’s DC Comics series and has also recently taken up the responsibility of donning Casey Jones’ iconic hockey mask for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie is up for a new challenge: American Ninja Warrior.

Amell’s peak physical condition, which he has also used to survive a WWE match during 2015’s Summerslam pay-per-view event, has earned him some recognition on the Ninja Warrior course! The new video, embedded at the top of the page, sees Amell taking on the course with impressive skill.
For the actor, these types of moves and workouts are nothing new. Taking his role on Arrow seriously, Amell habitually trains on challenging courses, including the well-known salmon ladder which sees him use his full body’s strength to climb.
As for the shirt Amell is sporting during his American Ninja Warrior efforts, it represents his Nocking Point wine brand. The actor hosts wine parties at several Heroes & Villains Fan Fest comic conventions throughout the year, inviting fans to join him to sip wine and listen to music under in the name of the brand.
Based on the characters from DC, ARROW is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (The Flash, Supergirl), Marc Guggenheim (Eli Stone, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters), Andrew Kreisberg (The Flash, Supergirl), Wendy Mericle (Desperate Housewives, Eli Stone) and Sarah Schechter (Supergirl, Blindspot).
Arrow airs Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT on The CW Television Network. “Honor Thy Fathers” will premiere on May 17.
