Entertainment Weekly has revealed that Kirk Acevedo (12 Monkeys) has been promoted to a series regular for the upcoming seventh season of The CW's Arrow. Acevedo plays Ricardo Diaz aka The Dragon.
When the new season begins, Diaz is still in the wind, while Oliver remains in the prison. Arrow showrunner Beth Schwartz tells EW that the calculating baddie will slightly off his rocker when he appears in season 7.
