Justin Hartley aka The Green Arrow becoming a series regular! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

With Lex, Lana and Lionel all nattily opting out of the next – the eighth! - season of “Smallville”, the producers really needed to find a couple of new – or familiar – faces to fill the void. According to E!, the barrenness has indeed now been filled – and by The Green Arrow!

Justin Hartley’s Emerald Avenger Oliver Queen, a guest-star in several episodes over the last couple of years, will be a series regular next season says the site.

‘’It's official! The CW just confirmed to me that Justin Hartley (Green Arrow/Oliver Queen) has been locked in as a...wait for it...series regular for the upcoming eighth season!

According to the show's rep, Justin's storyline will focus on Oliver's past and where he comes from as opposed to his Green alter ego.

Good news, yes?

I'm also told that Kristen Kreuk (Lana) will most definitely be back for a batch of episodes—most likely six or seven—but they're still working out the exact number.

As for the two new characters—Tess (female villain) and Doomsday (aka Davis Bloome)—they are yet to be cast’’.

I guess he's gonna get Clark to join the Justice League in the end after Clark hooks up with Lois

I was never too crazy about the whole Green Arrow thing on Smallville.

I'm sure they'll be plenty of playful banter between Oliver and his ex flame Lois.

Can't wait.

They should bring back the Black Canary, too, for at least a few episodes ...
if only to fill the void left by the departure of Kara (who will be seen less
frequently next season).
