Willa Holland has recently returned to the film industry after a seven-year absence following her departure from ‘Arrow’ in 2017. Her character Thea’s story in the show originally ended during season 6 when she left Star City for a new mission.

Producer Marc Guggenheim, who reduced Holland’s role in her last two seasons upon her request, explained that the actress wanted some personal time away from her role in the series.

Following that, co-star Stephen Amell told TVLine:

“Quite frankly, the most important thing when you’re doing a show like this, and you’re doing 23 episodes [per season], and you’re working long, hard hours, you need to make sure that everyone that’s here wants to be here.”

Then, he shared his thoughts about the actress and her decision not to renew her contract for any more seasons by saying:

“Willa was nothing short of professional and excellent and always delivered tremendous performances. But I know that she wanted to move on with her career. And I totally respect that. And I’m glad that she’s going to get that opportunity.”

After her departure from the main cast, Holland made brief appearances in ‘Arrow,’ guest-starring in its seventh season and returning for a few episodes in the final one.

Following these, the actress didn’t join any new projects except for a voice acting gig in the game series ‘Kingdom Hearts’ and remained silent about her absence from the industry.

Meanwhile, Cineverse announced the US release date for Holland’s latest film, ‘The Dirty South,’ to be November 2023. The ‘Arrow’ actress will appear as Sue Parker in the upcoming Western thriller, which also features Shane West and Dermot Mulroney.

A trailer for the film directed by Matthew Yerby is yet to be released, but you can see its poster below.

Stephen Amell, widely known for his role in ‘Arrow,’ found himself at the center of controversy in June 2021 after being removed from a Delta flight. The incident caused a stir among his fans and the media, leading the actor to initially downplay the situation on social media. However, in an appearance on Michael Rosenbaum’s podcast, Inside of You, Amell took the opportunity to address the incident in a more remorseful tone.

During the podcast interview, Stephen wasted no time in getting to the heart of the matter. He started by admitting his mistake, explaining:

“I wanted to have just a slight runway here to talk about this because what happened was — and it’s very, very simple — I had too many drinks, and I had too many drinks in a public place. And I got on a plane.”

Amell went on to reveal his emotional state on that day, saying:

“And the reason that I wanted to talk about it is — and we’ll get to it; eventually, this will all make sense — is I was pissed off about something else that had nothing to do with Cass, my wife, and I picked a fight. I picked a fight because I wanted to be loud and upset.”

The actor added:

“And it was a fight, as in like, it was not an argument. In order to have an argument, two people have to be talking. My wife said one thing the entire time, which was, ‘If you don’t lower your voice, they’re going to ask you to get off the plane.’ That’s the only thing that she said the entire time.”

He then expressed regret over his actions, stating:

“So, obviously, Cass was 100 percent right there. I was being loud. I was probably dropping a few F-bombs. I’ve got the noise-canceling — this is not an excuse — I’m not here to make excuses because this was 100 percent my fault, but — and I don’t even want to smile while I’m telling this story because I’m actually, frankly, deeply ashamed of it.”

Stephen recalled what happened afterward:

“But I was quiet for 10 minutes; a guy came back. Clearly, I had made somebody uncomfortable, and someone had said something, and they just make the decision, ‘You’ve got to get off the plane.'”

Since the incident, Stephen Amell has continued his acting career, taking on the role of Jack Spade in the brotherly wrestling drama ‘Heels’ on Starz.
