Stephen Amell Talks Arrow Season 4 Time Jump, Olicity & More

The website The TV Junkies recently interviewed Stephen Amell and among the topics discussed was his response to the first few scripts of Season 4. But first, Amell addressed something that he’s talked about previously.

“When I said there was a time jump people were like, ‘Oh my God really?’ I didn’t think that was very spoilery because the show has always followed chronologically when we air. Whenever we’ve taken a break and go off the air from May ’til October, when we leave it’s May and when we come back it’s October,” he said to the site.

And what are his impressions of Season 4’s scripts so far? “It still feels like our show but there are different elements that I think people are going to enjoy,” he said. “We get to see some characters interact that weren’t always the closest of friends or interacting on a regular basis which is neat when you’re doing new stuff in the fourth season of a show,” he continued.

He also talked about where Oliver and Felicity might be when Season 4 begins. “They are away and I believe they are still away when we get going again,” he said. So, does this mean there’s a chance for the two to have romantic success? “Well you never know, but I think if anyone has a decent chance it’s Oliver and Felicity. Time will tell,” he answered.
