Arrow Season 5: 10 Things You Need To Know

7. Curtis Becomes Mister Terrific

When Echo Kellum joined Arrow last year as Curtis Holt, a tech expert at Palmer Tech., it was expected that he'd become comic book alter-ego Mister Terrific at some stage during Season 4 (admittedly that comics character is called Michael, but it's a slight difference).

While that didn't quite transpire, there were a few hints towards it: Curtis started developing what looked like the T-spheres that Mister Terrific uses, and showed a willingness to fight for what he believed in.

Season 5, then, is when we'll actually see the transformation really take place. The trailers have already shown that he'll be training to become a fully-fledged member of Team Arrow (backed up by the fact Kellum is now a series regular), but it's also been confirmed he'll get the mask, and more specifically we'll be seeing it at some point during the first nine episodes.
