Arrow: Laurel related casting scoop on episode 1x16 and more from Zap2it's Carina Adly MacKenzie

Here's some scoop on Arrow from Carina Adly MacKenzie's Monday Kickstart column for the week of 1/20/13.

"Arrow": Laurel's mother, Dinah, abandoned Laurel years ago, but in Episode 16, she'll return to Starling City in the interest of reuniting with her daughter. In the comic books that inspired "Arrow," Dinah is the original Black Canary, and Laurel later takes over for her mother. Of course, in the comic books Dinah also dates Oliver Queen... which we're guessing (and hoping?) won't translate to the TV version. In other "Arrow" news, look for China White to make a few more appearances this season. Kelly Hu tells us we haven't seen the last of her character. "I can tell you that I do get to speak -- I get to talk a little bit more. And I do have a lot more action going on too," she says.
