Heels

SERIES PREMIERE Sunday, Aug. 15, 9/8c, Starz

The former Oliver Queen strips down to play wrestling aficionado Jack Spade, the ambitious owner of Georgia’s modest Duffy Wrestling League (DWL). In the ring, he’s a villain, while Jack’s irresponsible baby bro Ace (Vikings’ Alexander Ludwig, above right, with Amell) is the savior—the face. Amell tells us why Heels is as much about family as it is about wrestling.
