During Comic-Con last weekend, it was revealed that season four of Arrow will be receiving something of a reboot as Oliver Queen finally becomes Green Arrow and suits up in a clearly comic book inspired costume. Meanwhile, Starling City is going to now go by “Star City” (which has been a major niggle for comic fans).
The fourth season keeps getting better too, as earlier this month, we heard that Neal McDonough (Captain America: The First Avenger) is set to play new big bad Damien Darhk. Today, two more major casting additions have also been made official, and those are for comic characters Anarky and Mr. Terrific.
Alexander Calvert (Bates Motel) will play Anarky, an anarchist antihero who was a supporting Batman character during the ’90s. In Arrow, Lonnie Machin is described as a deranged freelancing criminal who is willing to do whatever it takes to impress a potential employer. Could that employer be Oliver Queen?
Mr. Terrific meanwhile will be played by Echo Kellum (Ben and Kate). Curtis Holt is described as a technological savant and inventor who works at Palmer Technologies under the supervision of Felicity.
These are two very interesting additions to Arrow, and it’s going to be interesting to see what sort of effect they have on the series. A lot of fans didn’t love season three, so they need to win fans around this year!
