Starfish35 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) Colton Haynes Thanks. Wow, I did not recognize him. He looks different for some reason. Edited July 9, 2014 by Starfish35 Link to comment
Morrigan2575 July 9, 2014 Author Share July 9, 2014 I've always noted her arms and really her physique. It's hard to miss in those Miss Smoak clothes. I always noticed that she was thin and I noticed her legs being really defined in one of those pictures from the Summer tour, i guess I just never noticed her arms being so toned before. Hopefully we'll get to see some Felicity training scenes in S3. I don't want her out there kicking ass, I think she's a total BAMF right now (loved how she tortured/interrogated Blood's guy last season). But the girl needs some basic self defense skills. 1 Link to comment
apinknightmare July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 The EPs did say a character would be absent for the first few eps-it's (hopefully) probably Sara. I refuse to give up, I know it's futile. 1 Link to comment
Sunshine July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) Colton said Sarah is coming back in an interview. We would just see different aspects of her (or something like that). Katrina Law said something about returning to Vancouver to film shortly which would make sense that Caity is too. I just think Sarah's not going to be BC.

apinknightmare July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Thea? She was at the cast dinner, so maybe she shows up sooner? IDK Link to comment
wingster55 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Good point. But Barrowman wasn't and he's a regular now. Might be him. Link to comment
abhi July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) I think before we see Thea, we will be seeing Malcom. and Barrowman isn't in Vancouver. So no Thea scenes until Barrowman lands in Vancouver. Most probably Willa has some living arrangement in Vancouver( due to the amount of filming) and she's presently in Vancouver so the cast dinner attendance. The guy next to kassidy is Colton. On an unrelated note: Robbie Amell tweeted this "Some very cool news coming today. Excited to share with you guys!!!!" which was retweeted by Andrew Kriesberg. SO maybe something related to Arrow or Flash??!!! We might see Sara, Nyssa and hopefully a glimse of Ra's al Ghul in 3x02. The director for 3x02 is Wendey Stanzler who has directed "The League of Assasins" and "Heir to the Demon" Edited July 9, 2014 by abhi Link to comment

SonofaBiscuit July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 DO. NOT. WANT Robbie Amell on Arrow or Flash. He seems like a very nice guy, but just NO. 1 Link to comment
abhi July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 They could need Thea for some Flashback regarding Thea and Oliver. I think Amell had said at Denver Comic Con that there were discussions that Thea and possibly Malcom will not be there in the first couple of episodes. But maybe flashbacks, who Knows?

Velocity23 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Robbie Amell joins #TheFlash in a major recurring role as Ronnie Raymond/Firestorm — starts in episode 3. Link to comment
SonofaBiscuit July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) Robbie Amell joins #TheFlash in a major recurring role as Ronnie Raymond/Firestorm — starts in episode 3. Boo!!!! Taking response over to Flash forum. PS: Please stop recycling your actors, CW. And if the CW insists on recycling their actors, why couldn't Luke Mitchell have shown up as Daniel. Double boo! Also: Please keep Firestorm far far away from Felicity. I don't want real-life cousin swapping, thank you very much. Edited July 9, 2014 by SonofaBiscuit Link to comment
wingster55 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 That's interesting, especially considering the role Felicity originally had in the comics. Link to comment

Velocity23 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 He could have always been the Lacrosse player in front of Felicity's dorm at MIT. Link to comment
Starfish35 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Flash casting news isn't related to Arrow, lets try to stay on topic please. Well actually, since Felicity Smoak in the comics is connected to Firestorm (she was married to his father) it is kind of related. So where should we talk about how having Firestorm on Flash could affect storylines on Arrow? 1 Link to comment
Lisin July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 As of this moment the only news that exists is that Amell the younger was cast to be on The Flash as Ronnie Raymond... anything beyond that is speculation about possible crossovers, if you want to speculate about crossovers here is fine I suppose but ultimately you're talking about a Flash character not an Arrow one so I'd prefer the majority of that speculation to happen over on the Flash forum. 1 Link to comment
dtissagirl July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 In the comics Ray Palmer/The Atom was Ronnie Raymond/Firestorm's teacher, so it really looks like they're trying to build on the possibilities of crossovers here. Link to comment
Starfish35 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) TVLine is confirming that he is going to be Firestorm, not just Ronnie Raymond. http://tvline.com/2014/07/09/the-flash-cast-robbie-amell-firestorm/ And yes, as dancingnancy points out, he has comics connections with not one but two major S3 Arrow characters now. I'm thinking that's not accidental. I'm suddenly thinking the two series might be a lot more interconnected than I'd originally thought. I've always thought it might be interesting if they were to connect Firestorm to Felicity somehow, just not exactly like it was in the comics. For example, instead of Ronnie being Felicity's step-son, he could be her step-brother. That might also help explain how she knew Caitlyn, since apparently in this version Caitlyn is Ronnie's fiancée. Edited July 9, 2014 by Starfish35 Link to comment
Tallis July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 I was going to say that maybe Caity was the one taking the photos but having counted plates, there doesn't appear to be anyone missing. Unless she's being *really* sneaky and cleared away the evidence first. Link to comment
BkWurm1 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 He could be a former step-brother, from some old relationship of her mothers if they want to keep the mother thing simple. 1 Link to comment
Starfish35 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Yeah, I would assume Felicity's mother had relationships after her father left, so it would be very easy to make Ronnie a step-brother. Link to comment
Morrigan2575 July 9, 2014 Author Share July 9, 2014 (edited) I honestly don't see any connection. Felicity Smoak doesn't exist in the Current 52 comics and when she gets re-introduced she's going to be based on Arrow's Felicity Smoak mid-20s, tech/IT genius, blonde (ish). She's not going to be a 40+ Tech Business Owner who married Ed Raymond. Additionally this Ronnie Raymond is not the Comics version either, he's older (a janitor vs HS student) and he's engaged to Caitlin which isn't in the comics, obviously. In fact Killer Frost was one of Firestorm's villains, not his lover/girlfriend/etc. It seems clear that the Flash is putting their own twist on Firestorm/Ronnie Raymond, just like Arrow put it's own twist on Shado (Yao Fei's daughter, Chinese, on the island, etc).

Password July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) Hold the phone. Caitlin's fiance, the one that died? So he isn't dead? Isn't that a massive spoiler...like what I just wrote. In fact because this is a Flash spoiler, should I even write it here? Arrow, and now I see The Flash is bent on making everyone related it seems. No one is separate from anything. Edited July 9, 2014 by ArrowLimbo Link to comment
Morrigan2575 July 9, 2014 Author Share July 9, 2014 - Pretty sure they've totally altered that aspect of her story but I'm guessing this really does belong in the Flash forum. 2 Link to comment
Lisin July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Yes @Morrigan2575 is right, please, if you want to talk about the comics take it to the comic topic, if you want to talk about Flash casting stuff take it to that forum. Thanks. Link to comment
pootlus July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Re: the photo - there are what looks like a couple of place settings to the sides that aren't being 'sat at' - it's possible Caity or JB was actually taking the picture (although I would have thought a restaurant staff member would do it) or had to leave early. Either way I don't think we should be reading casting news into a social function - it may be that they just couldn't make it for some reason :) Link to comment
Orion July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 EBR just posted this pic on Twitter. Looks like the green marble floor of QC and she is wearing Felicity type work clothes?

Orion July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 So wine is the order of the evening after that. TY Carrie Ann. I may develop a drinking problem before S3 starts. Oliver continues his journey as a dumb ass.

MsSchadenfreude July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 I think you may be right Stacey. I'm not sure I believe that spoiler especially on the first day of filming. I'm just going to pretend I never saw it. :) 1 Link to comment

apinknightmare July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 (edited) My shippery heart wants to believe...I mean, SA did say we'd find out relatively soon whether Oliver meant the "i love you." Not such a fan of how the date apparently turns out though, haha. The synopsis seems so bait-y. I need a MIB-style neuralizer, stat. Edited July 10, 2014 by apinknightmare 2 Link to comment

Because I just remembered that the big bad for this ep is supposed to be the new Count, whose description is: A well-educated criminal with grand ambitions and a knack for chemistry, this potentially recurring character gains power over his enemies by exposing them to a drug that drains their willpower. So yeah, that probably plays into it. Edited July 10, 2014 by apinknightmare Link to comment
