ARROW: Marc Guggenheim Teases More of Andy Diggle, Fallout From Oliver’s Decision

ARROW fans have heard about John Diggle’s deceased brother, Andy, since season 1, but they only saw him in the flesh (via a flashback) during the recent hour, “The Return.” But that won’t be the last we’ll see of him.

Before the PaleyFest panel honoring The CW series, ARROW executive producer Marc Guggenheim teased they had plans beyond a brief appearance for Eugene Byrd (Andy).

“[In that episode] you are seeing Andy for the first time after seeing him first be mentioned in 1×03,” Guggenheim teases in the video below. “We had mentioned in 2×06 that Andy was killed by Deadshot, on behalf of an organization called H.I.V.E. So we’re slowly doling out, in the tiniest little ways…these little pieces of an ongoing mystery that we will ultimately get to. [Byrd] was not cast at random, we will be doing more flashbacks — he was cast with the understanding that we wanted him to return, because we have to tell that story. We have to tell the story of why did H.I.V.E. want this man, Andy Diggle, killed? It’s going to be an interesting question.”

Check out what else Gugguenheim had to tease, including Team Arrow’s response to Ra’s’ proposition…
