Emily Bett Rickards Shares Her Personal Photos From the Arrow Set
His name is Oliver Queen. But now that he’s given up his Arrow alter ego and headed off into the sunset with Felicity, Rickards calls Stephen Amell by another name: “my driver.”
Porsche it real good! “I yelled things like ‘Wooooo, Vegaaaas!’ and ‘Road trip!’ more than once,” Rickards confesses of filming Olicity’s finale escape. “Stephen loved it.”
The brave and the blonde: Rickards gives a hair-and-makeup shout-out to “the extraordinary Paul Edwards trying to control my lion’s mane.”
When you can’t have Oliver… Rickards plants one on the metallic mannequin that’s usually decked out in the Arrow's costume in the team’s lair. “My hot date…he’s a nudist.”
That dazzling view from Thea’s loft does not fail this city. “That’s our larger-than-life Starling skyline,” Rickards says of the massive backdrop, which can be lit for day or night.
“[It’s] the hottest new multitalented pop phenomenon, Leather Suits and Boots!” jokes Rickards, who caught Willa Holland (Thea/Speedy), Amell, and David Ramsey (Diggle) chilling out during filming of the season finale.
Where there’s Smoak, there’s funny. Emily Bett Rickards (aka Felicity Smoak) snapped these shots on the Arrow set to prove that saving the day doesn’t always have to be serious business.
