Neal McDonough Joins ARROW as The Villainous Damien Darhk

The CW has announced that actor Neal McDonough (Captain America: The First Avenger, Justified) has joined the cast of it's superhero show Arrow in the role of Damien Darhk, season 4's main villain.

Darhk is described as "a mysterious and sophisticated villain, and an adversary of the late Ra’s al Ghul. Now the leader of his own clandestine group, this cunning foe will prove to be one of the Arrow’s greatest challenges." He's the leader of H.I.V.E. and a former member of the League of Assassins, so he's nothing to mess with.

This won't be McDonough's first experience on a superhero series, either: he's already reprised his Dum Dum Dugan role from the first Captain America movie on both Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter. But now he's heading over to the DC side of things, and should be giving Stephen Amell and company plenty of trouble.

Arrow returns on Wednesday, October 7 at 8:00pm.
