5 things to get excited about in the 'Arrow' season 4 trailer




The Arrow is coming back to Star(ling) City, and we could not be more excited about it.

We've finally got a full trailer for the fourth season of the CW's Arrow, and it's teasing the heck out of all the big changes the season will bring. We rounded up the top five moments from the trailer that have us most excited for the season, which looks like it will be everything we love about the show plus so much more.

1. Oliver and Felicity's domestic bliss




We know it can't last very long, but seeing Oliver trade the Hood for a green hoodie is pretty adorable, and so is Felicity's attempts at cooking (although we do not recommend trying to sit on a counter and cook at the same time, that kind of quirky behavior only works on TV).

2. Matt Ryan as Constantine




The Constantine TV show may be dead and gone, but the character will be making an appearance this season on Arrow, still played by Matt Ryan. It's a nice tribute to the NBC show and also a great way to give us just a little more of this guy.

3. Damien Darhk




The villain that Ra's Al Ghul teased at the end of season three is here for real in season four, and the mere fact that Neal McDonough (who you might recognize from any number of things including Captain America and Band of Brothers) is playing him is getting us excited. This is a different big-bad than the three we've seen before.

4. The return of Sara




We knew she was coming back somehow, considering we've seen the trailer for the CW's Legends of Tomorrow, and so we should have figured she'd be taking the Lazaraus Pit route (seriously those are super convenient). But before she heads off to her spin-off with some of our other favorites from Arrow and The Flash, we're excited to see her back on this show for a bit, considering how much last season hinged on the fallout from her death. Plus, it's just always more fun when Sara is around.

5. Diggle's new duds




Diggle finally has a costume, and while the helmet may look a little Magneto, the whole effect is distinctly awesome. Here's a way to make this guy more intimidating.

Arrow returns Oct. 7. You can watch the full trailer below:
