Development[edit]
On October 24, 2019, Arrow co-creator and season eight co-showrunner Marc Guggenheim revealed the title of the series finale to be "Fadeout". The episode, which is the eighth season's tenth and the series' 170th overall, was written by him and co-showrunner Beth Schwartz, and directed by James Bamford.[2][3]
Writing[edit]
In an August 2019 interview with TVLine, Guggenheim said he "came out of meditation one morning", at which point he had the episode's final scene ready.[4] On October 25, he posted a picture to clarify viewers on where the title "Fadeout" came from. In the picture, the fadeout is the area on a longbow where the grip tapers into the risers and limbs of the bow.[5] According to series star Stephen Amell, he and fellow actor David Ramsey got the ending they wanted for their respective characters Oliver Queen / Green Arrow and John Diggle / Spartan.[6]
Casting[edit]
Main cast members Stephen Amell, David Ramsey and Katherine McNamara appear as Oliver Queen / Green Arrow, John Diggle / Spartan,[6] and Mia Smoak, respectively.[7] Former series regulars Emily Bett Rickards and Colton Haynes will guest star in the episode as Felicity Smoak and Roy Harper, respectively; the episode marks Rickards' return to the series after she chose step away at the end of the seventh season.[8][9] McNamara said that having Felicity return for the series finale was "so critical" for the storyline, elaborating, "It made even the social aspect of wrapping the show mean so much more because she is so much of what Arrow is and I love Emily to death."[10] Additionally, David Nykl will guest star as Anatoly Knyazev.[11]
Filming[edit]
Preparation for the episode began on October 22,[3] and ran until October 30.[2] Filming began on October 31,[12] and ended on November 13.[2][13]
