As predicted, Rip
Hunter has officially joined The CW's upcoming Arrow/Flash spinoff series, and he
will be played by Arthur Darvill, best known for his role in Doctor Who as Rory
Williams, Matt Smith's companion.
A few weeks ago we
reported that a casting call had gone out for "A Han
Solo-esque rogue who gets by with his charm, this hero hails from the
future, and has journeyed back in time on a secret mission. His razor-sharp wit
hides the pain of a man who has lived through serious conflict. He also harbors
many secrets, always leaving both his teammates and the audience
unsure of his true allegiances."
Hunter being on the show
could explain how producers might intend on having Caity Lotz reprise her dead
Arrow character, Sara Lance, though nothing has been confirmed and I'm just
speculating.
This is the second
piece of casting news reported today for the upcoming spinoff. Earlier, Deadline
reported that Ciara Renée had been cast has Kendra Saunders, aka Hawkgirl.
