Emily Bett Rickards Returning to ‘Arrow’ for Series Finale
Arrow is currently airing and filming its final season, and the series finale is in production as we speak. Many familiar faces have already returned, including Willa Holland, Jonathon Barrowman, and Susanna Thompson. Colton Haynes is also expected to return. One character that fans have been hoping to see one last time is Felicity Smoak, played by Emily Bett Rickards. Rickards left the show at the end of last season after being on the series since season 1. The show used that to have Oliver leave his family in order to deal with the coming crisis. However, it looks like Olicity will be getting that reunion after all.

Oliver Queen himself, Stephen Amell, revealed on Twitter that his onscreen wife will indeed return for the final episode. Amell said with news about the final episode being revealed over the next few months, he prefers it if fans heard the news from the cast and crew. It’s unknown to what capacity Rickards will be back or what the finale will entail. But one thing for sure is that Olicity fans can expect to see their favorite couple on screen together again.
Catch Arrow‘s eighth and final season Tuesdays on The CW at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT. The series finale is expected to air sometime in February 2020.
