‘Arrow’ Season 3 Spoilers: Stephen Amell Talks Ollies’ Mystery Child: Could Comic Son Connor Hawke Join Team Arrow? [ New 52] [Red Arrow]

Towards the end of Arrow Season 2 it was revealed that Ollie Queen was a father. Young, pre-island, Olliver unknowingly got a girl pregnant. However, Ollies’ mother Moira Queen (Susanna Thompson) sent the child away. Now Stephen Amell is opening up about the return of his long lost baby. Could the mystery kid really be the show’s version of Ollies comic son, Connor Hawke, A.K.A the second Green Arrow ( A.K.A. Earth 2 Red Arrow in The New 52)?

Moira Queen actress, Susanna Thompson, spoke to The Hollywood Reporter earlier in the year about Ollies mystery baby:

“It wasn't surprising. The producers like to create these unexpected Easter eggs. You find these eggs in different areas, hidden away, and a lot of them are in Central City, it feels like.As Marc talked to me about the episode, what he liked about that particular bit of it was it allowed the audience to see how her brain works. She is still protecting her son and a grandchild. Yes, she is asking the young woman to go away and yes, she is paying her off. But the way I wanted to play it, I did truly want Moira to feel sincere about helping that child out.”

Stephen Amell recently spoke to reporters at Comic-Con 2014, where he offered a whole lot spoilers. Check out the video below for all the details:

During the interview Amell went on to tease the reintroduction of his long lost child (Via Moviepilot):

“When you see it revisited, if you see it revisited, this season or next, just remember that they way that they are going to re-introduce it was my idea. I was literally sitting in the writing room and was like, ‘guys, you know what would be cool?’....two weeks later, Marc Guggenheim comes up to me and was like ‘we have the best idea for the Oliver-child storyline.’. And he pitched my idea back to me.”
