Matt Nable's Ra's al Ghul, villain of Arrow season 3 will be appearing on the upcoming CW spin-off DC's Legends of Tomorrow. What's the connection between Ra's and Vandal Savage? Do you think Nable will be appearing via flashback, time-travel or in present day?

Matt Nable will be reprising his role as Ra's Al Ghul for the Arrow/Flash spin-off, DC's Legends of Tomorrow. It's unclear whether Nable will have survived his season 3 finale battle with the Arrow or if Nable's appearance will be through Legends of Tomorrow's time-travel adventures.  Current Arrow baddie, Damien Darhk is also confirmed to appear on Legends of Tomorrow so perhaps we'll be traveling back in time to a period when Darhk was still a member of the League of Assassins?

Ra's implied in season 3 of Arrow that he's at least a few centuries old thanks to the regenerative powers of the Lazarus Pit.  However, Malcolm Merlyn, the new Ra's, stated during this season's crossover episode that the League of Assassin's has no intel on Vandal Savage which would indicate that Savage and the League have never crossed paths during their long lifespans.  Without knowing what Savage's agenda will be in Legends of Tomorrow it's hard to predict how the interaction between Ra's and Savage will come about.  

If you have your own theories, take it to the comment section below and keep the conversation going.

DC's Legends of Tomorrow premieres January 21st at 8/7c on The CW.

Didn't Ra's say in the last season that his predecessor wiped out Alexandrian Egypt same way Oliver was suppose to wipe out Starling City. Maybe that was Savage. If Vandal Savage was the original leader of League of Assassins and Ra's mentor, it would explain why league doesn't anymore have records about Savage.

I'm guessing in the past Damien, "Ras" and Savage were all members of the league probably serving another Ras.

@ManCalledSting If he didn't know Savage why did he say "You owe me one buddy" while scooping up the ashes? Sounds like they were Leaguers and knew each other at least that's my interpretation.

@ManCalledSting I see what you're saying maybe he knew him by reputation or "legend" as it were

@ManCalledSting yea man I misread that comment, as I said I think "Ras", Dhark and Savage were in the league of assassins together serving under a different Ras.

@Gusto so far just during the explosion that "killed" him.

@ManCalledSting most definitely maybe it was something Savage himself started.

Cooool, the worst villain of the Arrow series and one of the many factors that dragged season three (and the show) into the gutter! Can't wait!

I hope his parts will take place in the present. Have Talia fish him out of the water too.

The connection is the meteors. They're hunks of Apokolips and imbue immortality, whether they land on an Egyptian priest or in an underground spring.

I liked Nable's portrayal of Ra's. It was understated but with a shitload of benign menace. And, in my opinion, he gets the "nod" over Neeson, even though, technically, Liam Neeson is:

@Darktower

You hated his face?!? God. DAMN! That's some intense hatred, right there!



I thought he did pretty good. I certainly don't hate his face. Poor guy! That's the only face he has!!

@loki668
LOL!!

Just trying to say that he never looked like Ra's to me.

i guess it hard for me to just except Matt's version after Liam Neesons performances, he really set the bar..beside Liam looked better than Matt. lol

I dont hate the guy.. i just hate how he portrayed Ra's n how they handled the character!

Whenever I think of Nable's Ra's I think of Oliver's fall, and that immediately un-excites me...

@Maguie777

I had hope after seeing "The Climb" where he kicked Oliver's ass with ease, and with class, any interaction after that was just awful.
