New Arrow Season 3 Footage in New Zealand Promo Video

A new promo clip for multiple television shows has been released in New Zealand, and the video contains some new footage of Arrow Season 3, which returns on Wednesday, January 21.

Check out the video below, in which you can see Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman) utter the line "Oliver Queen is dead." There is also a brief shot of Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards).

The Season 3 midseason finale of Arrow ended with the death of Oliver Queen at the hands of Ra's Al Ghul. After a brief duel, Ra's stabbed Oliver through the chest and kicked him off a mountain.

What we did not see, however, was the aftermath of that duel. But when the show returns on Wednesday, January 21, we will see the reaction of a few characters to Oliver's demise. The following comes from the "Ask Ausiello" column at TVLine.

"Question: I was wondering how, after Arrow's stunning midseason twist of 'killing' Oliver Queen, Felicity would react. Felicity was clearly hurt when Oliver kept pushing her away, and now that he finally tells her he loves her - she was his last dying thought! - and now she's lost him again! -Julie
Ausiello: I will just remind you that when Matt Mitovich last Q&A'd Emily Bett Rickards, she had just wrapped filming 'a sad moment' for Episode 10 - aka the midseason opener, airing Jan. 21 - and it had left her 'drained.' (Elsewhere on Team Arrow, Marc Guggenheim told us that in the same episode, David Ramsey 'shot what I would describe as his most emotional scene.... David breaks your heart with his performance.' So, yeah. Kleenex.)"
