Madison is making me appreciate even Lori. Lori was annoying but she was interesting. Maybe it's the difference in actresses... TWD - I hope none of the main cast members dies. FTWD - I hope some of the main cast members dies.

KL and KY are at MCM Ireland Comic-Con in Dublin this weekend (they must enjoy doing the same comic-cons)... https://twitter.com/Misskatrinalaw/status/637635515605491712

From MCM Manchester Comic-Con on July 25 or 26, 2015 (I've recapped some of their responses below)... Arrow's Karl Yune & Katrina Law at MCM Manchester 2015 Published on Aug 14, 2015, by The Wonky Spanner -- Karl Yune (KY) didn't think Maseo was a bad guy. Maseo was working for some powerful world agencies because he wanted to serve the greater good of humanity and it failed him, it betrayed him. As a result, he lost his son. So who do you go to at that point? You go to Ra's al Ghul. Maseo wasn't a wealthy billionaire. All he had was this thing he had in his jacket pocket, this Omega virus. KY played Maseo as though he didn't know that Ra's was actually going to use the Omega virus one day. He thought the writing on Arrow was amazing. --Fan asked if they were stranded on a desert island and had to survive, which of the Arrow characters would they do it with. KY would take Oliver because he's been on an island before and could tell him how to survive. Katrina Law (KL) would take Felicity and the Lance sisters because "I like blondes". -- During the audition process, KL was asked to do a chemistry read. On the sides that she was given, her character's name was Greta or something, and she was to read with the character Oliver. She was then told that there would be a girl in the room named Caity Lotz and she'd be doing a chemistry read with her. KL asked if they wanted to give her new sides and they told her that they wanted to do the same sides. In these sides, her character is "really flirty and hard with Oliver" so KL asked if they wanted her to play it more like she's her sister or friend, and she was told to keep it the same. So KL asked if her character was a lesbian and they said "no, we can't tell you." So on Monday morning, she walked into the room and there was "this beautiful blonde girl with these brilliant blue eyes". She turned around and there was this moment when they just looked at each other and then they were just like 'let's do this.' So then KL was cast because apparently they had chemistry. She didn't know what character she was playing until TV Guide announced it, and they told her. So she called up a friend who's a huge nerd and runs a podcast, and he was like "omigosh" and told her all about Nyssa. So KL read up on the whole al Ghul family dynamic. -- To get into her Nyssa character, KL just pulled on her "own inner badassness" and just channeled it and focused it. -- To get into his Maseo character, KY brought all his "own inner angst into the room and unleashed it." He was then asked to return and read off-book and he did it and got the part. -- Fan asked if they had much input into their characters' fighting styles. KY said that all of the guys were very talented but they came from different fighting style backgrounds. He thought Maseo was a "really practical kind of guy" so he wouldn't do anything elaborate. His only request was they "keep the moves short, sweet and efficient." -- KL didn't really have much to say about how Nyssa would fight. The stunt coordinator had already seen KL on Spartacus so he already had an inkling of what she could or could not do. It just came out organically that the female stunt double (who is the stunt double for most of the women on Arrow) was "very precise" and "she spins a lot". KL thought that was dictated by her costume which has panels that kind of spin, so they wanted to utilize that so that it looks cool when she's doing her fighting. So you see Nyssa always turning and turning back. So maybe her costume had more to do with her fighting style than anything else. -- Fan asked if they could switch characters, who would they like to play, and who would they like to play their characters. KY likes DR's character - "the voice of reason and morality". He though that Maseo was that for Oliver in the flashbacks. So he thinks that DR could kick ass in the Maseo role as well. KL would like to be Felicity - "she's the polar opposite of the Nyssa character". She'd like to go on set and "wear my heart on my sleeve, and spit out random lines that are hysterical and technical jargon, and then wear really cool pencil skirts and glasses - would be really fun". -- KL thinks that Nyssa and Maseo could pull off their own show - a LOA spinoff - and that it'd be interesting to see the LOA try to infiltrate the modern world. -- KL thinks that Nyssa will definitely confront Malcolm in S4. When she read the script that Nyssa kneels before Malcolm in the S3 finale, she could feel herself swallowing bile because she's very protective of her character. But she knew that Nyssa had to obey Malcolm then or be killed by the rest of the League. But she thinks that Nyssa and Malcolm both have a very clear understanding that a confrontation is coming. -- If KL had to pick three scenes with CL that she'd really like to shoot, she'd pick the initial scene where Nyssa finds Sara, the scene when Nyssa trains Sara and Sara has no skills then (whole training montage), and the moment when they realize that there's an attraction between them. -- KL said that Sara is "such an interesting character" because she's not your normal superhero. Flash is one of the best superheroes out there because he has such a good moral compass, he knows right from wrong, and there's a clear line that he will never cross. But Sara's already crossed the line and killed people and done some really bad stuff. Although she's redeemed herself through her actions and become a hero, there are still quite a few things about her that are dark. In comparison to her sister (Laurel), who is "more superhero quality" than Sara. To explain Sara's attraction to Nyssa, KL thinks there's something about someone seeing you very clearly, the good and the bad, and accepting both of them, and telling you it's okay to be both. Nyssa was probably the first one to tell Sara that 'it's okay to be a little dark, I love you anyway.' -- Fan asked what were their favorite weapons on Arrow and whether they had any training. KY said that he's a boy and liked the guns. They were all real guns, shooting blanks. KL found the swordwork really fulfilling because she's not real coordinated when it comes to foreign objects in her hand. She also liked the silk ribbons that Nyssa tumbles down. The silk is stretchy so when she tried it, she fell on her butt. Her stunt double would go up and down the ribbons and spin around. But KL would just always end up on the floor. -- Asked if they can do the salmon ladder, KY said that he can, while KL said that her stunt double is amazing. -- KL is really looking forward to Supergirl. She really likes that there'll be a female superhero for girls to look up to. -- Fan said that Nyssa interacted with the Lance sisters a lot and asked KL if there were any other female characters that she wanted Nyssa to intereact with on Arrow. KL replied: "Felicity. I think my character has a little crush on Felicity for sure. And I think it has to do with the blonde hair. I don't know why. And she's spicy, a spicy little character." -- Fan asked KY about a sequel to Real Steel. He heard there was a script for Real Steel 2, but he doesn't know anything. He had fun doing that movie. -- Fan asked who they would cosplay as if they came to a comic-con (as a fan). KY said Wolverine, and KL said a Minion. -- Fan asked for their favorite DC villain. KY picked Ra's al Ghul, and KL picked Catwoman, the Michelle Pfeiffer version. -- Fan asked for their favorite Disney movie. KY said Princess and the Frog because he loves cooking, and KL said Beauty and the Beast.

10Eleven12's theory is looking more likely now.

https://twitter.com/TheCW_Legends/status/637345326983020544

Maybe Oliver runs for Mayor but loses to Jessica Danforth, who becomes the new Mayor. In the process, he discovers city corruption that goes all the way to the top - with Damien Darhk essentially controlling the city. The only way he can fight back is by becoming a vigilante again - this time as the GA. Maybe Quentin also discovers corruption in the top ranks of the police force, his insubordination gets him busted down to beat cop, and he is forced to seek Oliver's help since they're both fighting the same corruption. (Shades of Batman/Gotham.) As for Jessica's daughter, I have some additional theories: Madision does not die but says something inspiring or enlightening to Oliver that leads him to enter politics. She's a childhood friend of Oliver and Thea, and knew Oliver before he became a spoiled playboy (before Laurel). She knew him to his bones as a child. Madison is DD's child. Jessica obeys DD either through love or fear. Madison is Felicity's younger half-sister. Their mutual father works for DD. Also another way that DD controls Jessica.
