After being introduced early in the first season Emily's character, Felicity Smoak, exited after season seven.

She now joins Byron Mann, playing Oliver Queen's mentor, Colin Donnell, Colton Hayes, and Josh Segarra as the cast of returning fan favorites continues to grow for the eighth and final season of the hit show.

Arrow producer Marc Guggenheim joined the resounding chorus on Twitter, chiming in with his praise for the move and suggesting more news may be coming as well.

I prefer it, too. ? We couldn't be happier or more thrilled. No other way to do our finale. You'll find our about more old friends returning in the coming weeks... https://t.co/19sdtY6TrH
