ARROW: Creator Andrew Kreisberg talks season 3 at Comic Con {Video}

We caught up with creator and Executive Producer Andrew Kreisberg room at Comic Con and pumped him for information about Arrow season 3.

Some highlights:

• Season 3 will include more characters and more humor, while also having the show’s biggest Bad
• There will still be flashbacks telling more of the story of where Oliver spent those 5 years
• This season will really be a “big step into darkness” and we’ll begin to see Oliver change – things we’ve been seeing since the pilot will make more sense
• He’s excited about bringing in Brandon Routh (Ray Palmer) – he will bring humor and he likens him to Jimmy Stewart and Cary Grant. There will be Oliver and Ray, with Felicity in the middle.

Arrow returns on Wednesday October 8 at 8/7c on The CW
