Vincent Peter Jones (born 5 January 1965) is a British actor, presenter, and former professional footballer. Jones played professionally as a defensive midfielder from 1984 to 1999, notably for Wimbledon, Leeds United, Sheffield United, Chelsea, and Queens Park Rangers. He also played for and captained the Welsh national team, having qualified through a Welsh grandparent. Best remembered for his time at Wimbledon as a pivotal member of the famous "Crazy Gang", he won the 1988 FA Cup final with the London side, a club for which he played over 200 games during two spells between 1986 and 1998. He played 184 games in the Premier League, in which he scored 13 goals. Jones gained a reputation for being one of the hardest footballers in history, with his highly aggressive and physically uncompromising style of play, an image which has often led to him being typecast in his film career as violent criminals and thugs. As an actor, his film and television career began with Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998), for which he won an Empire Award for Best Newcomer. Then, for Snatch (2000), he won the Empire Award for Best British Actor.

Entering his third year as Green Arrow, Oliver Queen has become Star City’s most visible hero. A billionaire activist known for his sharp wit and sarcastic humor, he balances running Queen Industries with protecting the city’s streets. When the dangerous drug Vertigo spreads through the Glades, Oliver uncovers a criminal alliance controlling much of Star City. During his investigation, he meets Roy Harper, a fearless teenager defending his neighborhood. Though Roy initially distrusts him, he soon realizes Green Arrow genuinely cares about the people he protects. Oliver’s search for the truth leads him into conflict with crime boss Brick, the deadly assassin Constantine Drakon, and the elusive thief known as the Dodger. As Roy discovers Oliver’s secret identity, the two begin developing a mentor-student relationship. Meanwhile, Count Vertigo emerges as the mastermind behind the city’s growing chaos and uses experimental drugs and sonic technology to push Oliver to his psychological breaking point. With help from John Diggle, Ted Grant, and his allies, Oliver recovers and realizes Star City needs more than one hero. He officially begins training Roy as they dismantle Vertigo’s empire while Brick sparks a gang war across the Glades. Roy proves himself by saving civilians during the conflict, Drakon is defeated, and Oliver ultimately defeats Count Vertigo atop a Queen Industries skyscraper, bringing down the entire criminal network. In the aftermath, crime declines, Queen Industries helps rebuild the Glades, and Roy begins serious archery training. As reports of extraordinary heroes around the world continue to emerge, Oliver realizes Star City is only part of a much larger world. Post-Credits: Inside the Arrow Cave, Roy discovers files labeled SUPERMAN, WONDER WOMAN, and BATMAN. After viewing evidence of each, he asks, “Think they’re real?” Oliver smirks. “If they are, they’re having a stranger week than we are.”
