Felicity Kicks Off Her Revenge Agenda With Help From Oliver On 'Arrow'

Felicity has only one thing on her mind as Arrow returns tonight — revenge.

Arrow EP Wendy Mericle spoke with ET about the future episodes and what will go on between Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) and Oliver (Stephen Amell).

“For us this season, our intent at the beginning was to do stories with Oliver and Felicity independent of the romantic relationship — sort of take a break, and let them date other people,” she shared.

“Going forward, to continue that, Felicity is going to be on a revenge mission against Prometheus. She doesn’t blame Oliver for what happened in 5×09, I think rightly so, and she’s going to be on her own path towards avenging Malone’s death,” she added.

And for Oliver? “Oliver will be on his own path dealing with Prometheus. Ultimately, they’re both going to be facing off and dealing with Prometheus, but in their own, independent ways.”
