Emily Rickards is just plain beautiful.

 

 

In the comics, Mr. Terrific is Michael Holt, a self-made billionaire and Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete with genius intellect who becomes a superhero after the death of his wife and unborn child, later going on to lead the Justice Society of America.

lol. Could Mr. Terrific be any more implausible.  :rofl:

Season 4 Will Focus On "Magic And Mysticism"

Speaking to a roundtable of reporters at SDCC (via Comicbook.com), Amell revealed that "Oliver alludes very early on in the season that [magic] is something that he's seen before, so clearly that will play into this year's flashbacks for him." This makes sense, with former League Of Assassins member Damien Dahrk set to be the season's big bad. It also adds further cause for the introduction of Matt Ryan's John Constantine as a guest star on the show.

Arrow Casts Teen Wolf Star J.R. Bourne As Double Down

2015-07-24_01-36-04.png

J.R. Bourne has been cast as DC Comics' villain 'Double Down'/'Jeremy Tell' for the fourth season of The CW's Arrow, according to The Wrap.

In the comics, Double Down is a villain that tends to battle The Flash, not Oliver Queen, but for the television universe he'll make his first appearance--3rd episode--in Star City.

For the show, he'll be a metahuman that can "can turn his playing card tattoos into deadly weapons." But in the comics, Double Down was a gambler that gained his powers from a cursed deck of cards that came from a man he murdered after losing to him in a high stakes poker game. Double Down is a sore loser!

The 45-year-old Canadian-born actor is best known for playing 'Martouf' from Stargate SG-1 and 'Chris Argent' from MTV's Teen Wolf.

In the upcoming fourth season of "Arrow," Oliver Queen and his crew will get a new headquarters, and Entertainment Weekly has unveiled concept art for Team Arrow's new space, which is currently called the Arrow Bunker by the writers' room.

"In designing the new lair, we had to think in terms of the much larger group that Oliver (Stephen Amell) has now surrounded himself with and how Team Arrow is a much bigger enterprise," executive producer Marc Guggenheim explained.

"There is an area for Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) to work, there is an area for Oliver to work out, and there is a garage," he continued. "There are many different places we'll continue to discover over the course of the season that give you a sense that this thing is a bit bigger than we got used to in the first three years."

Guggenheim wouldn't reveal the location of the Arrow Bunker in the interview. However, fans may recall that Felicity inadvertently signed papers to become the CEO of Palmer Technologies (formerly Queen Industries) last season; after Ray's (Brandon Routh) accident in the season finale, her new role in the company may have something to do with Team Arrow's latest enterprise.

Arrow bunker,  sorta like, you know, a batcave.   Maybe it's just me but I have this growing feeling that the Arrow people really wanted to do a Batman tv series but got shot down from WB and had to make due with Arrow as plan B.  But they still haven't let go and they're pulling in as much stuff you normally see associated with batman into arrow now.

A war has been brewing online for some time now between “Arrow” star Stephen Amell and wrestler Stardust for the better part of the summer. What began as a playful back and forth on Twitter actually came to blows on WWE’s Monday Night Raw last week. Since then, it’s been confirmed that Amell will in fact go toe-to-toe with Stardust and King Barrett (who coincidentally shares his name with a DC Comics villain) and featuring Adrian Neville as his ring partner on this Sunday’s WWE SummerSlam.

Amell took to Facebook last night to offer a tease for his appearance on SummerSlam, and revealed that he will in fact be bringing along his “Arrow” costume into the ring. Check it out below along with a video of the Amell v Stardust feud.

“Arrow” also stars Katie Cassidy as Dinah “Laurel” Lance, David Ramsey as John Diggle, Willa Holland as Thea Queen, Emily Bett Rickards as Felicity Smoak, John Barrowman as Malcom Merlyn, with Paul Blackthorne as Detective Lance. The series is executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, Andrew Kreisberg and Sarah Schechter.

After defeating his most formidable foe to date and riding off into the sunset with longtime flame Felicity Smoak, Oliver Queen (a.k.a. The Arrow) left Starling City with the hopes of beginning a new life. But will Oliver ever truly be able to leave behind his past as the Arrow, and, if so, what becomes of the team he has worked so hard to assemble? Will Diggle, Thea, and Laurel be left to continue Oliver’s crusade without him? And with Malcolm Merlyn having ascended to the top of the League of Assassins as the new Ra’s al Ghul, is anyone really safe? “Arrow” will premiere its fourth season on Wednesday, October 7 at 8:00pm ET/PT.

Whoa. I can't say I expected that. I enjoyed watching Constantine so I'm glad John Constantine is making another appearance.

    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
