A Flash from an alternate dimension sees John and asks where his ring is. A flashback to John's military days reveals that his stepfather's last name is Stewart (a tease that Diggle's name could be John Stewart). These teasers and more have all but assured fans that a Green Lantern power ring is in Diggle's future. 

Speaking to TV Line, actor David Ramsey says fans will finally receive a definitive answer this Tuesday, during the series finale.

"Without a doubt. You are absolutely going to get your answers. And well-deserved answers. We’ve been talking about this for years, and I think everyone by series’ end will be very happy."

One of the most popular supporting characters on Arrow, a guest spot on The Flash following the Arrow series finale already has fans buzzing about Diggle possibly making a move to Central City.   

Arrow‘s season 8, episode 10 series finale "Fadeout"  airs Tuesday, Jan. 28 at 9/8c, closing out an eight-year run that birthed a massive DC Comics television universe. A 1-hr special before the series finale,  Arrow: Hitting the Bullseye will examine the show's impact.

Colton Haynes' struggles with an anxiety disorder caused him to periodically leave the show at times but his character remains a fan-favorite that will hopefully appear in the Green Arrow and the Canaries spinoff.

Katie Cassidy's Earth-2 Laurel Lance will co-lead The CW's planned Green Arrow and the Canaries spinoff, which follows the daughter of Oliver and Felicity.



It all started and ends with Amell. However, rumors persist that Oliver will somehow turn into The Spectre before season's end so perhaps Amell's time in the Arrowverse isn't truly over just yet?


Despite fans consistently clamoring for Donnell's full-time return after his character's season 1 demise, Donnell went on to find greater success on NBC's Chicago Med and recently returned to theater acting.



Kellum departed Arrow in season 7 but returns as a special guest in season 8. Fun Fact: A graudate of several improve theater groups (including the Upright Citizens Brigade) He also voice several Rick and Morty characters and regularly appears in Instagram comedy skits.




Juliana Harkavy's Dinah Drake will co-lead the upcoming Green Arrow and the Canaries spinoff, which will receive a backdoor pilot later on in season 8.



McNamara will lead the Green Arrow and the Canaries spinoff.
