Thanks to arrowshieldfan for the heads up.
Was the choice of costume surprising?
A little bit. I didn't expect it to be as well-conceived as it was -- but at the same time, we've been talking about Diggle having some kind of concealment from the latter half of Season One, so I don't think you'll be disappointed.
What do you think of Diggle's connections to H.I.V.E.?
Well, he has a personal connection to H.I.V.E., because his brother was killed by Deadshot, who was hired by H.I.V.E., so there's a personal interest that he has in taking down that organization. And that's the big baddie for the season: H.I.V.E. and I think Damien Darhk and a few others. So Diggle's going to have a big, personal story this season. It will be, finally, Diggle's season!
How long do you stay mad at Oliver?
The whole season! No. They want to do that justice, right? Everyone at the end of Season Three was happy that Arrow was back and was going to continue the mission, except for Diggle. He had a personal problem with Arrow and it wasn't so much what he did with Lyla and kidnapping Lyla. It's the fact that he trusted Merlyn more than he did the team. And Diggle's a soldier, so if he can't trust him in the field, he'd rather not work with him.
But yes: They will kiss and make up.
Are there any DC characters that you personally would like to see stop by Starling
Yes. I'd like to see Bruce Wayne.
Not Batman, just Bruce Wayne. I want to see where that billionaire is, just in general. Like, is he a child whose parents just got killed? Is he part of the League of Assassins? Did he just come back from the League and he's a billionaire hanging out in Gotham? But if he's a contemporary of Oliver Queen, they have to know each other, right? Like, how many good-looking billionaires like that are walking around? So I would love to see Bruce Wayne.
...And now that you have Supergirl, don't you have Clark Kent? I would love to hear the names "Metropolis" and "Gotham" someplace in our universe. We'll see.
