With CW's Arrow set to come to an end with Season 8, star Stephen Amell, who plays Oliver Queen/Green Arrow on the series, has said he originally thought the show should end with Season 7.
"I think that we've had our running time," Amell said in a Facebook Live video. "That's what I thought when I talked with Greg Berlanti in Season 6. I felt like we had done our thing. I thought ultimately theoretically Season 7 should've ended things. But to come back and do 10 episodes ... what they've done with this final season is really cool. It's like nothing you guys have ever seen. Every episode that comes out, it’s like 'Wait a minute, what? It's happening what and where and how? Ok, that's cool. Let's do it!'"
Arrow Season 8 is set to be the last for the long-running CW series. Although it's not officially confirmed Oliver Queen will die in the upcoming crossover event, there's a lot to indicate he probably won't survive, including his deal with the Monitor from the recent "Elseworlds" event. However, Amell has said he would reprise the role again in the future.
Returning Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on The CW, Arrow stars Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen, David Ramsey as John Diggle, Rick Gonzalez as Wild Dog, Juliana Harkavy as Black Canary, Katie Cassidy as Black Siren, Katherine McNamara as Mia Smoak, Joseph David-Jones as Connor Hawke and Ben Lewis as William Clayton-Queen.
