No doubt that John Barrowman loves his recurring role as Malcolm Merlyn on the show ‘Arrow’ enough to want to play the role on a permanent basis.  I certainly wouldn’t mind it, either.  Now with Alex Kingston coming on board the to play Laurel’s mom, Dinah Lance, there more reason to love the show.

They’ll both be appearing on Arrow later this season, Barrowman in his recurring role, and Kingston as (probably) the original Black Canary. Barrowman himself tweeted this picture this weekend.

Oh look what is yet to come… Fangasm!!!!!!! #arrow fab! Jb twitter.com/Team_Barrowman…
