CASSIDY: She objects to legal talk.
Katie Cassidy got the show-business gene from her dad, 1970s teen idol David Cassidy, and from her grandfather, suave actor Jack Cassidy. But spouting legal lingo as a lawyer on the CW series Arrow doesn’t come naturally for the 26-year-old actress. “It’s a muscle you have to exercise,” Cassidy says. “As a lawyer, you’re almost on stage. For me, I walk into the courtroom to interrupt a case, and everybody turns and looks at me, and I give this whole spiel. (In real life,) it’s probably really, really intimidating.”
