Hit 2 to learn about the new characters that have been recently confirmed for Arrow Season 4!
Mr. Terrific & Anarky Join Arrow Season 4!
According to what Arrow executive producer Greg Berlanti revealed at SDCC panel (via ComicBook), the fourth season of the DC TV Universe show will introduce two characters from the comic books - Mr. Terrific and Anarky. Berlanti didn't announce the casts for the roles. He also didn't offer much description.
In the comics, Mr. Terrific is a superhero with genius-level intellect, great athletic and martial arts skills, and a whole lot of abilities. Michael Holt is the most popular alter-ego of this superhero among the many used over the years and most probably this will be used in Arrow Season 4 as well - however, it hasn't been confirmed. The EP mentioned that Mr. Terrific will be working with Emily Bett Rickards' Felicity Smoak and that he will be a gay.
Even though Berlanti confirmed about Anarky's appearance in the series, he didn't share any details. The character is an antagonist in DC Comics - especially an old adversary of Batman. His abilities include child prodigy, weapon improvisation, hacking, hybrid martial arts and a bunch more. His alter-ego is known as Lonnie Machin.
