Arrow Funeral Scene Prompts Death Speculation

A woman purporting to be an extra on the currently-filming episode of The CW's Arrow has posted a selfie to Instagram in which she's wearing a black dress and a veil, prompting fans to wonder whether a major character will die sometime before the season finale. The post was made three days ago, but went viral online today, probably because of the cliffhanger of last night's episode and the brutal trailers for next week.  "So much fun today on set of the CW's Arrow!" wrote Instagram user misstaradavy. "I was a Funeral mourner in my black veiled hat. Such an honour to meet the beautiful @katiecassidy today!" She hashtagged the photo, among other things, with #funeralscene and #mourner. Particularly in the wake of last night's episode, which saw Thea Queen abducted by Slade Wilson (and the trailer for next week's episode, in which she's told "you're not going home"), fans are understandably focused on the prospect of her death, especially because fan theories this season have centered around her being a likely candidate for a dramatic death all season long. Other popular candidates, based on a cursory look at social media, include Paul Blackthorne's Quentin Lance and Susannah Thompson's Moira Queen.
