ARROW: Alexander Calvert Joins Season 4 As 'Anarky'
On the heels of the news that Mr. Terrific will be making his live-action debut in Arrow, we now have word that Batman villain Anarky will also be finding his way to Star City next season. The character will be played by Bates Motel actor Alexander Calvert...
It looks like Ollie Queen and his pals are going to be encountering quite a few new faces for season 4 of Arrow... and not all of them friendly. We heard earlier on that they'll be getting some backup in the form of Echo Kellum as Mr. Terrific, but now CBR reports that there'll also be a new bad guy to balance things out.
Alexander Calvert (Bates Motel, The Dead Zone) has joined the cast as Lonnie Machin, aka Anarky, who will make his debut in the second episode. This take on the character is described as "a deranged freelancing criminal who is willing to do whatever it takes to impress a potential employer."
In the comics Anarky is a tech genius whose fighting skills are said to rival that of Batman's, but it remains to be seen if this TV take on the character will exhibit those traits.
