Ryan Potter Will Play Beast Boy in Titans Series

The cast of upcoming DC series Titans is coming together very nicely.

Ryan Potter has landed the role of Garfield “Gar” Logan a.k.a. Beast Boy. Potter is known for voicing Hiro Hamada, the lead boy in Disney/Marvel’s Big Hero Six (we love it when these things happen).

Here’s the official description of the character:

Gar contracted a lethal disease on an African safari with his geneticist parents, only to experience some “bizarre side effects” after being treated with an experimental drug. In addition to his hair and skin turning completely green, Gar — described as both “wisecracking” and “fun-loving” — can also transform into animals of any size.

Potter will be joining Teagan Croft (Raven), Ana Diop (Starfire), Brenton Thwaites (Robin/Nightwing), Alan Ritchson (Hawk), Minka Kelly (Dove) and Lindsey Gort (Detective Amy Rohrbach).

Karin Konoval to Return to The X Files Season 11

Karin Konoval is returning during The X Files.

Konoval was on the show way back in 1996, during season 4, when she played a mutant-breeding amputee who was kept under a bed. The episode “Home,” was so prominently disturbing, it was named one of the scariest instalments of the series.

“While Karin Konoval won’t be reprising her role as the mother-under-the-bed in the fan-favorite episode ‘Home,’ she will be returning in a tour-de-force performance in an early episode,” said showrunner Chris Carter, “or, more accurately — performances.”

Did Colton Haynes Just Confirm He’s Coming Back to Arrow?

It’s been quite a while since the last time we saw Colton Haynes’ Roy Harper during season 4 of Arrow. However, it seems like he might be coming back.

The Teen Wolf actor had a Twitter exchange with a fan on Saturday where he might have confirmed that he’s coming back to Arrow.

In the Tweets, the fan expresses the way she misses Haynes as Arsenal and saying she “really misses [him] in it,” to then have Haynes respond “Roy’s coming back very soon.”

Now, this might not be the final confirmation that he’s coming back for season 6, but for now, we’ll hold on to it.

TV Line released an article revealing some interesting details about Mekia Cox’s Tiana in the upcoming season of Once Upon a Time.

In the article, we learn that Tiana will make her first appearance in episode three “The Garden of Forking Paths,” where she meets Henry, Hook and the Evil Queen under not-too-good circumstances.

Tiana seems to have joined forces with Dania Ramirez’s Cinderella. According to showrunner Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis, we meet Cox’s character “in a fairy tale realm in turmoil,” adding that she’s set on a mission to “restore freedom to her people.”

OUAT creators also explained Tiana’s personality, describing her as a strong person who has a lot of enemies. “She’s been through a lot when we meet her, but she never wavers even when doubting oneself would seem to be the most logical, and safe, course of action,” said Kitsis and Horowitz.

The seventh season of Once Upon a Time is set to premiere October 6, 2017.
