According to Deadline, actress Devon Aoki has joined the cast of CW’s Arrow. She will have a reoccurring role as the sword wielding Katana. It appears she will be used mainly in flashbacks and will be on of Ollie’s mentors.
Arrow has their own version of continuity. The characters are not always the same age in the comics. Beware the Batman cartoon had Katana as Bruce’s young protege. It will be interesting to see her character as one of the mentors for Ollie.
Aoki has been in several movies and series. She is most known for her roles in 2 Fast 2 Furious and Sin City. She should be a great selection for this role.
