Arrow Casts Human Target

Will Simpson, the character on Marvel's Jessica Jones that aired on Netflix last year was and if you don't remember him the police officer Trish Walker (portrayed by Rachel Taylor) had a relationship with during the first season before he went all crazy after using combat enhancers that gave him temporary superhuman strength.

The actor who portrayed the role Will Traval will now move to rival DC Comics to portray the role of Christopher Chance a.k.a. Human Target on the upcoming season of Arrow.

In the comic books Human Target has been the name used by two different characters. The first is, Fred Venable while the second is Christopher Chance, the character we will be seeing on Arrow. You might know Chance, if you have happened to watch the two season series of the 2010 show names after the character, Human Target, with starred Mark Valley in the title role and ran for a total of 25 episodes.

In the Comics

Human target, originally appeared in main stream DC comic books. After the character seized to appear in the comic books, he was revived in DC's Vertigo Imprint.

Christopher Chance, our person of interest for this article is a private detective, bodyguard, master of disguise and a master of combat, his skill in the latter being almost unmatched and unparalleled. In order to protect his clients he handles any danger coming their way by assuming their identities.

Eventually and with years of impersonating clients he ended up addicted to the impersonation of others even the most unethical of his clients. His personality was submerged so deep, he forgot what he was like as a person and as a result he was no more capable of personal relationships seeing as to how he was no more sure if his emotions are his own or those of others he has impersonated in the past. So pretty much he had some sort of a personality disorder of his own.

Originally and almost to the end, Chance is considered one of the good guys. Whether he will appear on Arrow in a good role or an impersonator of one of the villains of the season is yet to be seen.

What we know for now for sure is we are going to be seeing him for the first time on our screens around the fifth episode of the upcoming season.

Arrow returns to the CW on the 5th of October with an all new season and all new episodes. Thanks for tuning in.

Cloud Atlas (2012): No Spoiler Review

I was not prepared. Words that many World of Warcraft players would find funny given they are a variation of the infamous character among WoW fans Illidan Stormrage. But it is true. I was not prepared at all. I started watching Cloud Atlas as one other movie for Tom Hanks, one that is probably going to be good but not as good as the ones that got all the hype when they were released. But I was definitely surprised and unable to get out of my seat and away from my screen. This is one of those movies that is so hard to describe and review without spoilers. However, it is also one that is impossible to describe and review with the use of so many spoilers, if any at all. Every actor/actress in this movie has portrayed multiple characters. Tom Hanks for starters did a great performance with every single character he portrayed from distant future Zachry to 70s scientist Isaac Sachs among 6 roles he portrayed in the movie out of which 4 were major and 2 although minor ...

Bridge of Spies (2015): Review (May Contain Spoilers)

Standing there like that you reminded me of the man that used to come to our house when I was young. My father used to say: "watch this man'. So I did. Every time he came. And never once did he do anything remarkable. The words of Rudolf Abel in one of the most epic conversations between him and James Donovan as part of One hundred and forty minutes of Tom Hanks as James Donovan, One hundred and forty minutes of Mark Rylance as Rudolf Abel, One hundred and forty minutes of classic, epic, awesome acting, awesome story and last but not least of great entertainment. The conversation continues when Donovan responds: And I remind you of him? To which Abel responds: This one time, I was at the age of your son, our house was overrun by partisan border guards. Dozens of them. My father was beaten, my mother was beaten, and this man, my father's friend, he was beaten. And I watched this man. Every time they hit him, he stood back up again. So they hit him harder. Stil...

American Gothic - Season 1 Episode 9: Spoiler Review

The latest episode of American Gothic actually managed to make things a bit better, in fact just when it seemed like it was hitting rock bottom, the show improved by a lot rather than a bit. The most recent episode gave us a closer glimpse at Garrett's character, who he was and what he is like. He is still a little bit enigmatic seeing as to how the show did not tell us who he killed as a teenager. However, it did give us a great insight on where he grew up between leaving his family and coming back fourteen years later after Tessa called him with news about his hospitalized father. The episode guest starred M.C. Gainey whom we probably all remember as Tom/Mr. Friendly on Lost. The actor did a very good job in portraying the friend and companion of Garrett's journey away from his family. As Garrett is now in jail and awaiting trial for being the partner to one Silver Bells Killer we see him flashback to relationships with his entire family, how he left and how he came ...
