Stephen Amell Teases A Sweet Olicity Moment Coming in Season 8

Emily Bett Rickards might be gone from Arrow, but there’s still a sweet Olicity moment coming in the first few episodes of final season of Arrow, according to Stephen Amell.

Speaking with TV Guide, the actor teased fans about the moment in which Oliver can’t wear his wedding ring.

“She is ever-present in Oliver’s mind,” Stephen shared of Felicity. “We found Oliver can’t wear his wedding ring in the premiere for a very specific reason, but he can wear it in the second episode.”

He adds, “It wasn’t built into the script, but I spoke to our director, Antonio Negret, and we built a moment of Oliver putting his ring back on and thinking about it. So Emily’s gone, off the show, but Felicity and William and Mia are ever-present in Oliver’s mind.”

Stephen also spoke of Oliver’s hope that he’ll be together with Felicity soon.

“That gives him purpose and allows him to move forward because he knows that somewhere along the way, in the immortal words of Chris Cooper from The Town, ‘This side or the other,’ they’ll find each other.”

Arrow returns in October on The CW.
