One thing that "Arrow" actor Stephen Amell likes to do is interact with his fans thru social media. The actor recently posted a photo giving fans a look at his character, Oliver Queen, in "Arrow" Season 5. Amell's photo seemingly shows a flashback of a bloody Oliver caught in a Russian fight club.

The photo also shows the absence of the Bratva tattoo in his chest, implying that this could be Oliver's origin story as a Bratva. It could mean that "Arrow" Season 5 would delve deeper into Oliver's beginnings, or could be the effect of the flashpoint.

According to Cinema Blend, if "Arrow" Season 5 would indeed mean that the flashbacks of Oliver's past are picking up its pace then it would address the mistakes of the previous season. The problem with the previous season was that the flashbacks that were presented were all jumbled up that it was hard to make sense of how Oliver developed into the Arrow before his five years were done.

Meanwhile, speculations that the early events of "Arrow" Season 5 will instigate a death of another character has been alarming to many fans. According to  International Business Times, Amell, when asked how he would describe the premiere of the show using emojis, he responded with a closed fist and a skull. It could mean many things but worried fans think that the actor could be warning about another possible death.

More news about "Arrow" Season 5 will be revealed as the cast is set to make an appearance at the San Diego Comic-con on July 23.
