On the Speedy/Red Arrow front, E! hears that Roy Harper (Colton Haynes) and Arrow (Stephen Amell) come to an understanding fairly early on in season 2. Reportedly, by the end of the second episode, Roy and the costumed Oliver Queen reach an accord of some sort. Perhaps, he agrees to start training him or to use him as an informant? We'll have to wait till next week to find out for sure.
Tvline has a few soundbites from the other executive producer on the show, Andrew Kreisberg on the addition of Sin, played by The Killing's Bex Taylor-Klaus. "If the Arrow has Roy [as a potential sidekick], then Black Canary (to be played by Caity Lotz) has Sin." If you're up to date on your DC Comics lore, you'll know that Sin has ties to Lady Shiva and the League of Assassins. It appears the role of Sin was originally going to be a quick guest spot but those plans have changed as Bex has impressed. "Truth be told, we were thinking of killing off [Sin] quickly but now that we have Bex, we’re keeping her around," said Kreisberg. Laurel (Katie Cassidy) is also said to be entering the vigilante fray this season but not necessarily as a costume crimefighter. Instead, she'll be more determined than ever to bring Arrow to justice as she blames him (and the Dark Archer) for the death of Tommy (Colin Donnell).

| "After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. When he returns home to Starling City, his devoted mother Moira, much-beloved sister Thea, and best friend Tommy welcome him home, but they sense Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. While Oliver hides the truth about the man he’s become, he desperately wants to make amends for the actions he took as the boy he was. Most particularly, he seeks reconciliation with his former girlfriend, Laurel Lance. As Oliver reconnects with those closest to him, he secretly creates the persona of Arrow – a vigilante – to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory. By day, Oliver plays the role of a wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be – flanked by his devoted chauffeur/bodyguard, John Diggle – while carefully concealing the secret identity he turns to under cover of darkness. However, Laurel’s father, Detective Quentin Lance, is determined to arrest the vigilante operating in his city. Meanwhile, Oliver’s own mother, Moira, knows much more about the deadly shipwreck than she has let on – and is more ruthless than he could ever imagine." |
