Heroes & Villains Fan Fest is currently taking over Nashville, TN in a fun-filled weekend where the stars of today’s comic-inspired television shows & movies come together to interact with fans and give the scoop on all of our favorite pop-culture fandoms!
We had Stephen Amell yesterday and now David Ramsey, Katie Cassidy, Josh Segarra, Juliana Harkavy, Katrina Law) from Arrow are taking the panel stage!
While we were all sad to see Thea Queen leave the show, Katrina Law was able to return to the Arrow universe for that very episode. Check out the video below to hear her thoughts on putting Nyssa’s shoes back on and why she loves reprising the role.

“Whenever Nyssa comes back it’s such a fun storyline because you just never know what’s going to happen.”
Despite its darker tones, it’s not all serious on the Arrow set. Watch as Juliana Harkavy recalls her favorite on-set memory.

Katie Cassidy also reflected on what it was like putting her suit on for the first time, saying that it was so exciting for her that she got emotional.
As unfortunate as it was to hear that Paul Blackthorne would be leaving the series after six seasons, the cast still has years of fond memories working with him including this story from Josh Segarra.

Having studied Media & Writing at James Madison University, I always knew that I wanted to do some type of creative writing, but being able to write about zombies, Starks, and superheroes on a daily basis for Fan Fest is my actual dream. While I probably shouldn’t be as proud as I am to be so similar to Nick Miller, I do hope to one day write my own “Pepperwood Chronicles’.
