Oliver Queen To Get A "Suit Upgrade" In Season 3 Of Arrow

TVovermind spoke to the actor at the Comic-Con roundtable and got some pretty interesting details about the future of Roy on the show. When the subject of Mirakuru came up, Haynes stated that Roy was absolutely clueless about the fact that he killed two cops, and the facts will be revealed to him in the next chapter, and he would have to face the consequences, albeit he had no idea what they might be.

"No one has told Roy yet because in that last scene with Felicity, I was basically out cold and she was like 'yeah, you were out cold,'" he said. "So no one has told Roy yet that he is basically a cop-killer, that he killed two cops. Eventually that's going to come out and how that affects Roy, we don't know yet, I haven't read that far. Roy is going to have to deal with the repercussions of that and who knows what it is going to be, I actually don't know."

The official press release for season 3 of the show was released last month:

"After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. He returned home to Starling City, bent on righting the wrongs of his family and fighting injustice.

To do this, he creates the persona of the Arrow and allies himself with former military man John Diggle (David Ramsey), computer-science expert Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), street brawler Roy Harper (Colton Haynes) and international assassin Sara Lance (Caity Lotz), while keeping his secret from those closest to him including his sister Thea (Willa Holland), who has allied herself with his most deadly enemy. Rivalries and allegiances will shift as Oliver faces his most difficult challenge yet."

The finale of season 2 of Arrow aired on May 14 on the CW.

Season 3 premieres on October 8 on The CW.
