Arrow‘s Queen family reunion just keeps getting bigger and bigger! TV Guide has confirmed that Thea Queen (Willa Holland) will return in a recurring role for the final season of Arrow, where she’ll reunite with her brother Oliver (Stephen Amell) and nephew William (Ben Lewis), as well as meet her niece Mia (Katherine McNamara). Thea and Oliver’s late mother Moira (Susanna Thompson) will also appear in Season 8 in some capacity. TVLine was the first to report the news.

Ever since Holland left the show in Season 6, we’ve missed Thea Queen dearly. But we’ve been satisfied knowing she’s off on a mission to destroy Lazarus Pits around the world, having experienced their negative side effects first hand. She’d previously gone off on this mission with her on-again, off-again boyfriend, Roy Harper (Colton Haynes), but we discovered in Season 7 that he’d actually been killed in one of those confrontations with the Thanatos Guild, at which point Thea and Nyssa (Katrina Law) decided to bring him back to life using one of those Lazrus Pits, resulting in his own bout of bloodlust.

We’re so glad that Holland decided to reprise her role as Thea, because we always knew Arrow‘s final season wouldn’t be complete without Speedy!

Arrow premieres Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 9/8c on The CW.
