Another day, another Arrow teaser. But we’ll get to that in a second. First I want to talk about Ra’s al Ghul, who for some reason is just getting cast even though Arrow‘s third season premieres next month.

According to Coming Soon, The CW has tapped Matthew Nable to play Ra’s. Nable is a former professional rugby player, and as an actor he’s appeared in films like Riddick and Killer Elite (as well as a bunch of British crap I’ve never heard of). As you can see below, he’s the right shade of white (“very”) to play a character whose last name is al Ghul.

Now, as promised, the new teaser. The silly, inane teaser. I mean, it’s nice to see Oliver making jokes again, but what the fuck is up with that song? It’s a good thing this isn’t the first Arrow trailer I’ve ever seen, because it would probably turn me off of the show entirely.
