Arrow Casts Farscape’s Ben Browder For Episode 11

Farscape and Stargate star Ben Browder is the latest big name from the sci-fi/genre world to appear on Arrow — news that has been revealed by IGN today. He’ll be playing a character named Ted Gaynor who first appeared in Blackhawk comics from DC in the 1980’s.

Here’s how IGN describes the character:

Gaynor is Diggle’s commanding officer from his first tour in Afghanistan, who now works as a bodyguard for Blackhawk Squad Protection Group in Starling City. As a series of armored truck robberies strike the city, Gaynor proves to be a polarizing figure between Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Diggle (David Ramsey).

Look for him in Arrow Episode 11, “Trust But Verify.”
