Arrowverse: David Ramsey Will Return As John Diggle in ‘Batwoman’ And Direct An Episode Of ‘Superman & Lois’
David Ramsey is certainly one of the biggest Arrowverse veterans. Ramsey played the role of John Diggle, Oliver Queen’s bodyguard and closest friend in all eight seasons of Arrow. After the show finished its airing in early 2020, fans thought that Ramsey will say goodbye to Arrowverse, but on the contrary, Ramsey reprised the role in one episode of most of the Arrowverse shows that were on after Arrow finished; Batwoman, Supergirl, Superman & Lois, Legends of Tomorrow, and The Flash. Ramsey also directed various episodes of all the mentioned shows, except The Flash.
Now, according to TVLine, Ramsey will reprise the role of John Diggle in one of the upcoming episodes of Batwoman. Although John Diggle never officially met any characters on the show, last season he met Camrus Johnson’s Luke Fox while he was in Gotham City. The report is saying that he will appear in the episode that’s set to air on January 19. You can check the episode’s official synopsis here:
