Gotham introduced early versions of many iconic Batman villains in its first season, and season two will be no different. Hugo Strange, Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter and Clayface are all set to appear, while The Joker’s origin story will be featured. And now, casting is underway for at least two villains that will antagonize Gotham next season. Via TV Line, both a male and a female villain are being cast.

In Arrow‘s second season, Harley Quinn made a memorable cameo as an ARGUS prisoner. The brief appearance generated much hype since, leading to speculation on when Quinn would have a bigger role (if at all).

Speaking with MCM London (via CBM), Thea/Speedy actress Willa Holland revealed that the Arrow producers did have “big plans” for Harley, but…

Speaking with La Cosa (via ComicBook.com), Johnson offered an update on the DC Comics adaptation. He reaffirmed that the script is consistently improving, and he discusses his first time playing…

When Arrow first premiered on The CW in 2012, few could predict its success. Originally conceived as a darker and realistic take on Green Arrow, the series went on to spin off The Flash into his own show, allowing metahumans and time travel to come into this universe.

Many characters have been introduced and will continue to be, expanding the network’s acclaimed take on the DC Universe. Of course, the potential doesn’t stop there. There are many characters, heroes and villains, introduced in the Arrow-verse…
