When asked about the mask worn by regular DC Universe supervillain and mercenary master assassin Deathstroke spotted on the island seen in the most recent Arrow<\/em><\/a> footage, star Stephen Amell, who plays Oliver Queen, the titular Green Arrow, suggested that it’s more than an glib reference, and we should expect full-on Smallville<\/em>-style cameos.<\/p>\n

“Based on my experience talking to Drew [Kreisberg] and Marc [Guggenheim] who are sort of our two head showrunners, I don’t think that they’re going to drop Easter eggs in there if they don’t plan on delivering,” Amell\u00a0told The Huffington Post<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Proving out that theory,\u00a0Michael Rowe has been cast in Episode 3 as the sharp-shooting Batman<\/a> villain Deadshot, and it’s “very possible” he’ll be back.<\/p>\n

“Deadshot doesn’t speak much, so he has to have that physicality,” executive producer Marc Guggenheim told\u00a0TV Guide<\/em><\/a>. “And Michael certainly has that \u2013 he has that look.”<\/p>\n

Arrow<\/em> is expected to air on Sky Living HD later in the year.<\/p>\n
