First of all… oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!

Second of all… The CW has released the season 4 trailer for Arrow, which bullseyes back to The CW on October 7th, and the almost 2-minute video is jam packed. I am too excited for this season to start, not only for all the new STAR city shenanigans, but for the DC’s Legends of Tomorrow lead-ins and then crossovers, plus more crossovers with The Flash. The connections between the two shows were so good last season, I have no doubt next season will be even more mind-blowing.

Check out the video and the pic of Diggle in his new costume (finally!) below.

It would be a much shorter list if I told you what wasn’t in the trailer, but just in case you were thinking about watching it later…

Don’t.

Here’s a tiny bit of what you will see:

– Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) in suburban paradise.

– RIP Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh – wth?!?)

– Somebody rising out of the Lazarus Pit. Guess who?

– Diggle (David Ramsey) in costume (below), but also in action.

– Thea (Willa Holland) in costume.

– John Constantine (Matt Ryan)!!!!!!

– Neal McDonough is in the trailer a bunch of evil times, as the new foe of the season, Damien Darhk.

And so much more!

Arrow returns Wednesday, October 7th at 8pm ET on The CW.

Arrow Season 4 Trailer

After defeating his most formidable foe to date and riding off into the sunset with longtime flame Felicity Smoak, Oliver Queen (a.k.a. The Arrow) left Starling City with the hopes of beginning a new life. But will Oliver ever truly be able to leave behind his past as the Arrow, and, if so, what becomes of the team he has worked so hard to assemble? Will Diggle, Thea, and Laurel be left to continue Oliver’s crusade without him? And with Malcolm Merlyn having ascended to the top of the League of Assassins as the new Ra’s al Ghul, is anyone really safe? Arrow Season 4 premieres Wednesday October 7th on The CW!
