Harper has appeared in the source material for many years and served as a side-kick to Green Arrow going by the name of ‘Speedy’ and later as the ‘Red Arrow.’ It remains to be seen if his character will fight alongside Oliver Queen in the series, but it certainly seems like a possibility with his role being expanded.
Arrow‘s first season is in the home streth now with the second season set to air this fall. It stars Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen, Colin Donnell as Tommy, Willa Holland as Thea Queen, Emily Bett Rickards as Felicity Smoak, with Susanna Thompson as Moira Queen and Paul Blackthorne as Detective Quentin Lance. The show airs on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
