Fans have more reasons to watch "Arrow" Season 5 after the cast hinted a few details on what viewers could expect on the season's premiere. Appearing in the recent Heroes and Villains Fanfest at the Meadowlands Exposition Center, the cast talked about the developments of characters, new cast and the plot of the series' new season.
"Arrow" lead star Oliver Queen/ Green Arrow (Stephen Amell) teased fans about what will be happening to Oliver and Felicity Smoak's (Emily Bett Rickards) romance in "Arrow" Season 5. While speaking to fans, he mentioned that they should not always expect a romance between Oliver and Felicity because they could also have a relationship without a commitment.
"Oliver and Felicity could have a wonderful, fulfilling, dynamic relationship and not be together," TV Line quoted Amell as saying to his fans. "I hope that they're both in a happy positive place. Whether that means they're together or not remains to be seen."
Amell shared that "Arrow" Season 5 will be focusing on its core value- the fight to save the Star City. He expressed his excitement and dished that the two episodes of the series will tackle more on time travel and flashbacks.
The actor confirmed that his wrestling rival Stardust (Cody Rhodes) will have a guest appearance in one of the episodes in the new season. It is uncertain to whom Rhodes will play with, but he hinted that he and Amell could have another match during the Heroes and Villains Fanfest panel.
In other developments, David Ramsey talked about some of the changes in John Diggle's character in the next season. Diggle will be getting a Cisco-created upgrade cover and he will let go of his Spartan mask. He also hinted on a new child actress who will be playing the new Baby Sarah.
"Arrow" Season 5 production has begun as per the series' executive producer Marc Guggenheim. On his Twitter, the executive revealed the series' premiere title "Legacy."
Other stars who will grace the new season, include Thea Queen (Willa Holland), Malcom Merlyn (John Barrowman) and Detective Lance (Paul Blackthorne). It will premiere on Oct. 5.
