TV Article Arrow: Colton Haynes set to return as Roy By Natalie Abrams Natalie Abrams Senior Writer EW's editorial guidelines Published on November 20, 2015 09:29PM EST Photo: Cate Cameron/The CW Colton Haynes is slated to return to Arrow in an upcoming episode, EW has confirmed. Haynes left the series last season after Roy Harper, a.k.a Arsenal, took the fall for being the Arrow and faked his own death in prison. Roy then left town, much to Thea’s (Willa Holland) dismay, though he left her with the parting gift of his super suit. Details on his return have not been released, but surely Roy will have something to say about Thea’s new bloodlust. WANT MORE EW?
