As season 3 of Arrow is currently filming, all manner of spoilers are surfacing online. It was recently revealed that John Diggle (David Ramsey) is all set to play dad as his wife is pregnant and Oliver Queen, played by Stephen Amell, doesn't think it is a good idea to keep Diggle in the line of fire anymore.

Movie Pilot reported that the argument that is shown between Diggle and Oliver in the recently released teaser probably had to do with this development.

Recently it was revealed that the title of the premiere episode has been titled, Corto Maltese, and this could mean a lot of things. According to a report it is the name of an island by South America in the DC comicverse. It goes on to highlight that Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) had once made a reference to the island in an episode in season 2. The inference that is drawn is that the episode will have something to do with Diggle.

The official press release for season 3 of the show was also released last month:

"After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. He returned home to Starling City, bent on righting the wrongs of his family and fighting injustice.

To do this, he creates the persona of the Arrow and allies himself with former military man John Diggle (David Ramsey), computer-science expert Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), street brawler Roy Harper (Colton Haynes) and international assassin Sara Lance (Caity Lotz), while keeping his secret from those closest to him including his sister Thea (Willa Holland), who has allied herself with his most deadly enemy. Rivalries and allegiances will shift as Oliver faces his most difficult challenge yet."

The finale of season 2 of Arrow aired on May 14 on the CW.

Season 3 premieres on October 8 on The CW.
