Two fan favorites from the Stargate franchise are headed to the fourth season of Arrow – and they’ll both be bad guys.
The hit CW comic book series has cast JR Bourne as the super-villain Double Down, who in the comics mythology is a former con artist and gambler who becomes supernaturally bonded to a deck of cards — which he can then control to kill people. He’ll reportedly appear in the third episode of the new season.
Bourne played the Tok’ra Martouf on Stargate SG-1.
Also headed to Arrow this season is Ryan Robbins, who will play a villain named Conklin. He’ll show up in this season’s flashback storyline as a member of Shadowspire, an organization headed by Baron Blitzkrieg (Jimmy Akingbola).
Robbins played Ladon Radim, leader of the Genii coup d’etat, on Stargate Atlantis.

Arrow premieres Wednesday, October 7 (8/7c) on The CW.
