After Melissa Benoist's Supergirl costume was revealed earlier this afternoon, "Arrow" star Stephen Amell took to his Facebook to recount how close he came to a wardrobe malfunction in his first character photoshoot.

"I remember everyone being really happy with [the photo] and wanting to show it off to people working on the pilot," Amell wrote, "Which led to one of our producers showing it to Katie Cassidy... She immediately pointed out a glaring problem. The angle of the photo and the placement of my bow made it appear as though I was maybe a little TOO excited about wearing the Arrow suit. She was right. It definitely looked like I had an erection."

"We ALMOST became the show about the hooded vigilante with a boner," he joked in conclusion.
