Thea, because we’ve taken so many family members away from Oliver, and Felicity because when you put a character like that in a costume, I think it diminishes who that character is and it makes the idea of superheroics seem silly.
Those, to me, are two lines that I just think are a bridge too far.
There’s two lines in the sand that I’ve drawn for Arrow for myself.
I can’t speak for Greg [Berlanti] or for Wendy [Mericle], but for as long as I’m involved with the show, the two things I never want to do is kill off Thea, and put Felicity in a mask and a costume.
