Nyssa al Ghul, played by actress Katrina Law, debuted as a recurring character in Arrow‘s second season. She played a much bigger role in season three, where we also met her father, Ra’s. Nyssa then had an arc in season four, but has been absent from this current season (likely due to Law now starring on another show, CBS’ Training Day). But, that’s about to change.

Slade Wilson, played by actor Manu Bennett, debuted as a recurring character on Arrow back in season one. He later resurfaced in season two, becoming Deathstroke and serving as the season’s big bad.

Since Slade was by far one of the show’s most beloved characters, fans have been wanting to see him return. However, Bennett has made his disappointment in the series’ direction with Deathstroke known, and he later continued to make shady remarks on social media. Additionally, the Deathstroke character is joining the DC…

It’s been two months since The LEGO Batman Movie opened in theaters. The LEGO Movie spin-off earned rave reviews and positive word of mouth from audiences. However, it has had noticeably weaker box office legs than its predecessor. The original movie grossed $257.7 million domestic and $469 million worldwide, an amount that this movie won’t match. Still, LEGO Batman was only made for $80 million, so it’ll churn a solid profit anyways. And you have to consider the increased competition this year. Not to mention how much the film is making on merchandise. This weekend, LEGO Batman finally surpassed the $300 million mark worldwide. It’s at $172.9 million domestic and…
