Justified alum David Meunier has joined the Season 5 cast of the CW’s drama seriesArrow in a recurring role.

Meunier will play Ishmael Gregor, the slick and intimidating Pakhan (“Godfather”) of the Bratva, whom Anatoly (David Nykl) reports and takes a special interest in Oliver Queen. In the comics, Gregor was a Russian crime boss who craved the magical abilities of the demon Sabbac; however, Arrow will explore his more earthly ambitions.

Meunier, best known for his role as Johnny Crowder on FX’s Justified, most recently was a series regular on A&E’s Damien. He also appeared opposite David Duchovny on NBC’s Aquarius as Charlie Manson’s gatekeeper Roy Kovic. Meunier is repped by Justice & Ponder.

Arrow Season 5 premieres Wednesday, October 5, on the CW.

ARROW Producer Greg Berlanti Confirms TV SUICIDE SQUAD Was A Test For The Film

Before David Ayer's Suicide Squad appeared on the silver screen, fans got their first taste of Task Force X on the CW's Arrow. While Arrow's version of the Squad was a far cry from the classic comic lineup, we still got to see the show's take on classic characters such as Bronze Tiger, Deadshot, and Amanda Waller. Now, in a new interview, Arrow producer Greg Berlanti confirmed that the Squad's inclusion on the show was a test for audiences to gauge interest in the team for a feature film.

"They said to us a year and a half before they started developing Suicide Squad, 'Will you guys put [a version of] the Suicide Squad in your show? Because we want to have it as a film at some point." Berlanti told Vulture. "It also happened with Geoff [Johns] when Geoff and Andrew [Kreisberg] and I were creating Flash. They were both really huge fans of Cisco Ramon, [also known as] Vibe, and had written a Vibe comic [in 2013] to try and bring him back. They said, 'Could we please have Vibe on the show?'"

Ironically enough, Deadshot and Waller were later killed off on the show, apparently due to a mandate from Warner Bros. prohibiting the use of those characters on television
