ARROW: Will Emily Bett Rickards Return for Season 8?

With ARROW approaching its final season, it’ll be down its female lead, Emily Bett Rickards (Felicity).

The drama wrapped up her storyline in the season 7 finale, and The CW boss, Mark Pedowitz, didn’t sound entirely convinced she would appear in any capacity in season 8.

“Emily was terrific on the show,” Pedowitz told reporters on a conference call. “We believe [showrunner] Beth Schwartz did a great job wrapping up Felicity’s storyline last year. If Beth finds a way to bring her back and Emily is available, we’d love to have her. Otherwise, I’m pleased at how they said goodbye to the character.”
