Arrow’s Diggle Reveals New Helmet

Team Arrow is getting a major shakeup on its roster this season, but it won’t be all new names standing alongside Oliver Queen. Fan favorite John Diggle will also be returning to the team, though the when is unknown, but when he does come back he will be sporting a redesigned helmet.

The newest season preview of The CW’s upcoming slate features an up-close look at all of the shows. When the camera lands on Diggle, his helmet has received a slick redesign. The helmet is more modern and less bulky than the original one, and now it sports a translucent red visor across it. You can view the helmet at the 0.19-second mark.

In addition to Diggle’s updated helmet, fans are also treated to a few glimpses of Arrow, Supergirl, The Flash, and a few of the Legends of Tomorrow sharing the screen together. It was recently announced that all four shows will be crossing over later this year in an episode titled Invasion!

“This year, for our mega ‘Arrowverse’ crossover, we’re taking inspiration from a DC crossover from the late 1980s known as Invasion!, which featured an alien race called the Dominators, who’d previously vexed the Legion of Superheroes,” said Arrow and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow executive producer Marc Guggenheim. “We’re using cutting edge prosthetics and computer effects to achieve a feature film-quality look which is faithful to Invasion! artist Todd McFarlane’s interpretation of the characters.”

Arrow returns to The CW on October 4th.
