'Arrow' casts Oliver's new love interest

Actress Elysia Rotaru has been cast as a new love interest for Oliver in the upcoming season four of "Arrow".
Rotaru will recur in flashbacks as someone from Oliver's (Stephen Amell) past, though further details on her character are being kept under wraps, reported Entertainment Weekly.
"Oliver is gonna have a love interest in the past that will serve as a parallel or potentially a contrast to his love affair with Felicity in the present," executive producer Marc Guggenheim said.
Oliver will still be seen with Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards).
Guggenheim had recently said the season premiere will have a "great surprise."

"We have a really great surprise for the season premiere for the flashbacks, and it's made talking about the flashbacks very difficult.
"We pick up basically in real time. It's been a number of months later since the last flashback. Oliver is in Coast City, as eagle-eyed viewers noted when he boarded the boat at the end of season 3."
"Arrow" will air on October 7.
