5 REASONS EVERYONE IS FREAKING OUT ABOUT THE NEW ‘ARROW’ TRAILER 

Starling City’s criminals may have “failed the city,” but the season three trailer of

wrapped up with Oliver losing control of Queen Consolidated and Thea leaving Starling City with her birth father, season three promises a fresh set of big developments. From new romances (ahem, Olicity anyone?!) to familiar faces, the sneak peek offers some big clues about where the season is headed — and fans are understandably very, very excited.

Holy cow! We better stop, drop, and roll because Oliver and Felicity are on

The series teased the Oliver/Felicity romance during the season two finale, but

EP Greg Berlanti confirmed to TV Line that the much adored and often shipped couple will be an “active part” of season three.

“They’re real characters to us, and they had that conversation on the beach, and they had that conversation in the house to help capture Slade,” Berlanti said. “So the question you have to ask is: Does Oliver have real, genuine emotions for her? And how aware is he of that? And how aware does he make

of that? That is an active part of the season this year.”

DC fans may know the new owner of Queen Consolidated as The Atom, a superhero who possesses the ability to change his own size as well the size of objects around him.

We’re excited for Routh’s first appearance but less enthused about the puppy dog eyes Felicity threw his way during the teaser trailer.

Cured of the Mirakuru and newly single, Roy Harper received quite the promotion from season two to season three as he upgraded from nightclub busboy to vigilante superhero sidekick. However, considering Brandon “Don’t call me Superman” Routh is now running Queen Consolidated and Felicity has a day job, it seems like  Roy’s promotion will be of the “title only” variety.

Will Roy be able to reconcile with Thea 2.0 when she makes her inevitable return to Starling City?

…and if the teaser trailer is any indication, quipper than ever!

Sara’s return to Starling City is shrouded in mystery but her reappearance, unfortunately, may be one of a foreboding nature. The series has been not-so-subtly foreshadowing Laurel’s eventual transformation into the Black Canary. At this point, it’s more a question of when rather than if Laurel follows in her sister’s footsteps — a decision that could potentially mean doom for Sara.

5. Is it possible? Oliver Queen is actually… *gasp* smiling.

The perpetually brooding arrow-slinger appears to actually crack a smile when (former?) Detective Lance asks if he “Has a hot date or somethin’?”

Enjoy it while you can, Ollie. The drama is just beginning.

The puppy dog eyes were actually directed at Oliver… that was just some fancy (misdirected) editing from the Arrow peeps. Tricksy! LOVE the trailer!

The new Arrow promo is super exciting! I can’t wait for the third season to start. Really hoping we see lots of Oliver/Felicity/Diggle “team arrow” stuff this year. And Oliver and Felicity? Heck yeah they’re hot! Wow! I love them and these new ads have blown me away. I can’t wait to see them together.

I hope Stephen Amell and Emily Bett Rickards get nominated for best chem and couple this year, they are bringing it hard core!

So excited for Arrow’s season 3. Stephen Amell and Emily Bett Rickards better get a Best Onscreen Chemistry Award this year!!!

Can’t wait for Arrow S3! And the Felicity + Oliver journey continues; LOVE that! Best OTP ever. Olicity slow-burn endgame all the way…
