Arrow Shocker: Who's Out?

Arrow is returning to The CW during the 2018-2019 season for Season 7. 

There will be some changes afoot as the popular superhero drama gears up for the new season. 

Per The Hollywood Reporter, original series regular Paul Blackthorne will not return as a series regular for Arrow Season 7.

Blackthorne has played the role of Quentin Lance since the series debuted back in 2012. 

During Arrow Season 6, Quentin's storyline has largely revolved around him trying to find the good in the Earth-2 iteration of his deceased daughter. 

Despite a string of hurdles getting in his way, Quentin has continued his plight to have this other version of his daughter in his life.

Blackthorne is the second series regular to depart this year. Willa Holland bowed out as Thea Queen in March, and the character departed with Roy. 

However, Colton Haynes is scheduled to return as a regular for Arrow Season 7, so this could mean that things don't work out for the former loves.

It's unclear whether Blackthorne or Holland will appear in any capacity from here on out. 

There will also be changes behind the scenes for Arrow. Beth Schwartz was upped to showrunner on the series last month.

Wendy Mericle departed the franchise entirely, while Marc Guggenheim moved to a consulting role on the series.

“We are all so incredibly thrilled to announce Beth Schwartz as the new showrunner of Arrow,” executive producer and creator Greg Berlanti at the time. 

“She has been a source of some of the show’s most exciting and memorable moments from the beginning."

"Beth is a true leader and a captivating storyteller, and we all can’t wait for the audience to see what she and her team dream up as they take Arrow into its next big chapter.”
