Arrow is getting ready to dive more into Oliver Queen’s past on season five of the CW series. Wendy Mericle teased more about the upcoming season to TV Line.

Fans will see more flashbacks to Oliver’s past, and there might be some new revelations about Oliver’s Russian connection. Mericle said the following:

“It’s a very good possibility that we’ll finally find out how he got that Bratva tattoo and how he learned to speak Russian. When Oliver says, ‘No one can know my secret’ and he kills that guy in the pilot, we’re going to get some insight into that.”

Fans will see a new villain on the series next season, but fans will also see a “cocksure/reckless ex-Marine turned vigilante.”

At the end of season four, Oliver Queen took on the Mayor’s office, and City Hall will become a part of the series next season.
