"Arrow" season 4 premiere will see the return of Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) to Starling City after leaving with Felicity Smoak to somewhere.
When the Emerald Archer does come back, new foes will welcome him. While the present will continue to be chaotic, the past will still play a big role in Oliver's character.
The first two seasons featured flashbacks to Oliver's life after getting stranded in an island. Season four will continue to have that storyline.

Akingbola will recur on the series as Baron Reiter, an adversary for Oliver, and appear in the show's prominent flashback scenes. In the comics, the character is the leader of the nefarious group Shadowspire."
