‘Arrow’ Fans Send Cast Soda After David Ramsey’s PaleyFest Joke
“Arrow” fans have made sure that their favorite actors have carbonated drinks. David Ramsey revealed that a group sent cases of soda after he claimed that only “The Flash” was fancy enough to get the bubbly beverages.
During PaleyFest LA over the weekend, Ramsey, who has spent the last five seasons playing John Diggle on the CW drama, discussed the differences between working on “Arrow” and “The Flash.”
“It’s actually a lighter atmosphere on ‘Flash,’ because there’s bright light. There’s a jail with every color — everybody’s smiling, everybody’s happy,” he told the audience (via CBR). “And we’re literally separated by a wall. By the way, they have cans of sodas on their show — we don’t. We don’t get Coke, or Mountain Dew, or Pepsi — ‘Flash’ does.”
Executive producer Marc Guggenheim joked that the older show would get soda when they deliver the same ratings as “The Flash.” It seems “Arrow” fans didn’t want to keep their favorite actors waiting, though.

Ramsey revealed Tuesday that over a dozen cases of soda were delivered to set. He made sure to thank the fans. “I don’t say it nearly enough but I appreciate every single one of you! Every card, every post, every sentiment of appreciation is felt to the very core of my heart,” he wrote.
Stephen Amell, who plays the Green Arrow, approved of Ramsey’s kind message to their supporters.
Luckily, the actors will be able to get more soda in Season 6 when they crossover with “The Flash” as well as “Supergirl” and “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” again. “I was having dinner with [CW President] Mark Pedowitz,” Amell told PaleyFest attendees (via Deadline). “He comes up to Vancouver every year—and I go, ‘Mark, are we going to do a crossover every year?’” Pedowitz very enthusiastically confirmed Amell’s suspicion.
“Arrow” Season 5 airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EDT on The CW.
