Karl Yune Joins 'Arrow' For Season 3

Yesterday Matt reported that Arrow had officially cast Devon Aoki (Sin City) as Katana/ Tatsu Yamashiro, well today the show continued adding to its season 3 ensemble by bringing on actor Karl Yune (Real Steel). Yune will play Maseo Yamashiro who in comics is Katana's husband and a fellow martial artist. Both Katana and her husband Maseo will play large roles in season 3's flashbacks by training Oliver during his (Amanda Waller forced) stay in Hong Kong. The couple could also possibly show up in present day Starling.

It's great to see the new pieces of the season 3 puzzle start to come together. Trying to top last season's Deathstroke flashbacks will be tough, but I think Katana and Maseo are up for the job. I love the writing team bringing on less well known DC characters. Tatsu was really shining on Beware the Batman before that show was cut short, so I am happy to see her character get a live action treatment. Hopefully leading to her character gaining some much deserved popularity. Arrow comes back for it's 3rd season in the fall.

Soultakin' with Soultaker like a motherfucker! If someone from Starling's soul is not in the sword by the end of season 3, I will be disappointed (Cough* Amanda Waller * Cough).
