Arrow Casts Ted Grant A.K.A. Wildcat

Arrow has found their Wildcat — and, because it’s The CW, instead of an old guy, this “Ted Grant” is young and hot, which probably means he’ll be a love interest for Katie Cassidy’s Laurel.

(Not that there’s anything wrong with that.)

Deadline is reporting that Emily Owens MD and Power actor J.R. Ramirez has landed the role and is “a former boxer who now runs a gym for underprivileged youth. A man with a mysterious past, he will play a pivotal role in Laurel Lance’s arc this season.”

Arrow Season 3 begins October 8.
