Yesterday, in the news feeds it announced that there has been a casting update for actor John Barrowman, who plays Malcolm Merlyn in the Arrow show.
John Barrowman has made a deal which will make him a series regular in all of CW's DC TV shows (including Supergirl per Newsarama), similar to Wenthworth Miller.
TVLine has learned exclusively that akin to the groundbreaking contract that Wentworth Miller segued into at the end of his single-season Legends of Tomorrow run, Barrowman will continue to appear on Arrow and maintain series regular status - but across all of the superhero shows executive-produced by Greg Berlanti, including The Flash and Legends.
“What it really emulates to us is the comic books themselves, where there really are a cast of characters,” Berlanti said in May, when Miller’s own deal was announced. “In success, we hope to continue with other characters finding their way across all the shows.”
