Last week’s “Arrow” season finale still has people talking, including the show’s cast and crew. MTV news caught up with new series regular Colton Haynes and asked him about the show’s shocking finale and what lies ahead in season two (hint: maybe a super hero team?). The interview starts with Haynes discussing one of the season finale’s twists, so spoiler alert. Everyone else, have at it!

Haynes, who was recently promoted to series regular, is gearing up for more screen time — which will likely include more shirtless scenes. “We have our promo shoot in a few days and I have a feeling I will not have any clothes on in that,” the 24-year-old told Us. “I used to do a lot of yoga, but I tend to lose a lot of weight when I do that. Now I’m just trying to lift as many weights as I can.”

The actors also addressed speculation that Haynes’ character, Roy Harper, might become Oliver’s protege in season 2. “I think that’s obviously where it’s heading. Whether or not that’s going to happen right away, I’m not quite sure. I think they’re toying with the idea of making him wait a bit,” Haynes explained. “You have to watch out, because Roy has a lot of inner demons. If he becomes a hero right away he could possibly turn into a little bit of a bad guy. Right now I think he’s kind of a poser. He’s not such a bad guy, but he’s had a hard life.”

Amell, 32, added, “Based on comic lore, there’s a path for him there. But one of the things we try to honor on the show is that it took Oliver five years [being stranded on an island and training to become a hero]. That doesn’t mean that it has to take Roy five years, but you have to go through something. If we just strapped up and put on a hood and went for it, that wouldn’t be true to the show. He’s going to have to go through something.”

According to Colton Haynes, we may be seeing an Avengers-like uniting of some team members to deal with the situation at The Glades… while we’ll also be seeing him with his shirt off quite often. Watch the following interview for more:

“There’s three different versions that Roy can become,” Colton dished to JJJ on the carpet at the event on where he hopes season two will take his character.

“We pick up a little later (after the finale ended), so you’re going to love certain characters now and then hate some. I hope Roy can deal with his own inner struggles before any hero status or else, he can possibly turn a little bad,” he added.

Roy and Thea both showed very heroic sides in the finale. Is that a sign of things to come?
Guggenheim: Yes. Thea’s line about, “I have wicked aim” was meant to be a little foreshadowing and certainly, Roy’s heroics in the alleyway with his red hood is similar. Our game plan with respect to Thea and Roy pretty much remains unchanged. We’re going to keep pushing them both in the directions that destiny is drawing them. The nice thing for us in Season 2 is Colton Haynes becomes a series regular so it’ll allow us to tell a lot more Roy stories, which we’re really eager to do.

Now that The Undertaking occurred and The Glades have been destroyed via a man-made earthquake, will we pick up right away after the disaster in Season 2? “I think we’re looking at a time jump,” newly promoted series regular Colton Haynes (Roy) reveals. “I think it’s going to be really interesting for the fans because they’re going to want it right where we left off, but they’re going to get so many answers and more right from the beginning. Also, since the devastation of The Glades, I think they’re going to be assembling a little team to help out Starling City, so you can possibly draw your conclusions. You know the DC universe is very big so there might be a lot more characters coming.”
