Colton Haynes talks Arsenal, Roy and Thea in ‘Arrow’ season 3
As fans are clamoring over the return of Arrow, which had an explosive and shocking premiere, Buddy TV was able to speak with star Colton Haynes about his character Roy, the upcoming storylines and transforming into Arsenal.
“It’s the coolest thing.” Haynes says when asked about the Arsenal outfit and the explained that the “cure” worked on Roy, but he’s not stable and that he is “volatile in that aspect.”
Haynes details the Roy and Thea relationship in the Buddy TV interview, noting that the family was dishonest, lied to her and that Roy knows he should have been honest with her. He’s been hurting since she left.
One twist will be the realization that Roy killed two police officers, a fact he doesn’t remember. Haynes hints that others will find out and he may be branded a murderer.
There will be a “really cool relationship” between Roy and Felicity. It’s like Bridesmaids where they will continue to try and one up the other. We’ll see the lighter side of Roy. There were several other clues from Haynes: Laurel “plays a pivotal part” using her brains to unearth more secrets, there will be more DC characters introduced and the incident surrounding Sara “brings them together more than it tears them apart.”
Stephen Amell discussed the show at last weekend’s NYCC panel, noting the death of major characters, a return of Tommy and much, much more – check out more of that discussion HERE
