It seems too obvious, not to mention the fact Ms. Westfield herself admitted that she hadn't seen her son since his father's funeral, meaning that she doesn't actually know for certain that her son really is Prometheus. I think you guys are just too theory obsessed and won't accept that we already know who this guy is. I wouldn't really say that I'm "theory obsessed". I'm just pointing out that it seems like an obvious misdirection. I'm not saying that he isn't Claybourne's son, I'm just sayng that I'm not convinced.

Also, it's been mentioned in interviews that this season is supposed to introduce a character called "James": An "irrepressibly charming" contemporary of Oliver's who is described as "a man on a mission. Out as he is to avenge a tragic, violent loss from his own, years-ago past."

I'm pretty certain that it's supposed to be Prometheus, but we'll just have to wait and see. Well they probably just got rid of him. Not all their characters that they announce that might appear will. Remember when they said that Mirror Master would be in S2? It is just Claybourne's son. The thing is that some characters in the Arrowverse don't have last names and might be wanting revenge against Oliver and reveal that their last name is Claybourne. So yeah it is possible that we will have a character that we have seen before take the role of Prometheus, just not Tommy or those other characters that have last names given to them. It's not DEFINITELY Claybourne's son. Prometheus is a genius and could be playing Oliver in that too. Maybe the reason Claybourne's son wasn't seen after the funeral was that Prometheus kidnapped/killed him. @Xandermcc: to be fair, I never speculated that it was Tommy or really anyone we had seen before. I generally avoid subscribing to theories that seem outlandish or are more based on wishful thinking.

@Kagemamoru: Now that we know that it's Adrian, things have surprisingly enough not become simpler. Now I'm wondering whether Adrian Chase is even his real name (possibly James, but maybe not). It's still possible that Adrian is Claybourne's son, but it could all just be misdirection on Adrian's part. Or maybe Adrian just decided to marry his wife who has the last name Chase so he could hide without his mask.
