Arrow's Connor Hawke actor hints he'll appear in planned Canaries spin-off

"Mmm-hmm, there is a chance!" the actor told RadioTimes.com. "We'll see. I can't give away anything!"

He added: "I think they wanna find a story that makes sense to tell after Arrow, because it's something that was so near and dear to all of the fans and it was something that was sort of unprecedented at the time it came out, so]they don't wanna just make something that is gonna not do justice to the Arrow legacy...

"They're keeping everything close to the chest like they always do. but I think it's gonna be a fun show show. I'm interested to see where things go with the spin-off."

David-Jones also told us that Arrow's final episodes will feature “a lot of callbacks” to previous seasons. “They’re trying to bring about a cathartic end to this entire series and this man’s journey, so you’re going to see a lot of people from his past we’ve brought back in, you’re going to see a lot of moments revisited from earlier seasons and I think fans are gonna love it," he said.

The star also revealed that his character was originally supposed to become a series regular on fellow Arrowverse series Legends of Tomorrow, before plans changed and he joined the Arrow cast instead.

Arrow season 8 airs Tuesday nights on The CW in the US. New episodes will air on Sky One and be available on NOW TV in the UK from Wednesday, October 30.
