It’s announced that Colton Haynes is officially returning for Arrow Season 7.
The actor who plays Roy Harper will be back as a series regular.
“The #Arrow news is finally out! Now I have to start working out again. BUT IM STILL SO EXCITED. #RoysBack. Thanks to all of you who’ve continued to support me! Love y’all!” Colton Haynes posted on Instagram.
The Arrow executive producers also said in a joint statement: “We’re very fortunate and excited to welcome back Colton to Arrow. While we’ve always enjoyed Colton’s returns to the show, we couldn’t be more thrilled to have him return as a proper series regular, and we’re very excited about all the creative opportunities Roy Harper’s return affords us.”
Colton Haynes appeared in the first season of Arrow, and he was then featured as a series regular in seasons two and three. Following having left the series in Season 3, Haynes returned to guest star in Season 4, but skipped appearances in Season 5, and recently returned for a limited capacity this past Season 6.
The CW recently announced the renewal of Arrow, which airs on Thursday nights, along with renewals for The Flash and the rest of the Arrowverse series.
