ARROW Season 7 Will Add Two New Recurring Characters; Stephen Amell Teases A "New Storytelling Technique"
After the departure of a few cast members in Season 6, Arrow will be adding to new recurring character to their ranks for the upcoming Season 7. Hit the jump for more details on the show's new additions...
Following last week’s season finale, fans will have to wait until the fall to see any new episodes of the CW’s Arrow, which is sure to a tough wait for some after the massive status quo change that hit the show in the finale.
Aside from the events in the final episode of Season 6, the series also saw some changes behind the scenes as a few cast members departed the show and Season 7 gained a new showrunner in Beth Schwartz.
Now, along with Oliver’s new facial hair and the likely appearance of the Longbow Hunters, the seventh season of Arrow will be adding two new recurring characters.
According to TV Line, one of the newest additions is an “ambitious, young, anti-vigilante recruit at the SCPD” who will add to the difficulties facing Team Arrow and is described as being to vigilantes what Buffy was to vampires. Also, joining Felicity and Mr. Teriffic as the show’s tech geniuses is one character described as a “successful tech whiz who is gay, and who harbors a heartbreaking past.”
In all, these two roles don’t sound too signifcant, but it’s still too early tell. Though, with the recent departure of a few characters, it’s possible they could be filling the absences.
While it may seem like we are already in store for some significant changes when Season 7 comes around, Stephen Amell is currently teasing (via Cinema Blend) some new things to come in terms of storytelling methods.
“I think that it's going to be...we can't go bigger than we went last year, so we're going more specific. . . . We are gonna introduce a new storytelling technique that I'm really excited about. All that I can say.”
This tease from the show’s lead doesn’t give us much to go on, but considering the show has employed nearly every trick in the book — whether it be flashbacks or dream sequences — at least once, it will be interesting to see what they have in store for Season 7.
