Last seen by genre fans in a violently amorous encounter with a gun-toting, revenge-thirsty Nicolas Cage in Drive Angry, Ross has recently enjoyed stints on Hit the Floor and Glee. But the blonde stunner appears to be especially proud of her latest role. Ross tweeted the following earlier today:

    I can’t wait. I’ve been waiting for Felicity Smoak’s back-story since Season 1 of Arrow. I was really hoping for Jeri Ryan, but Charlotte Ross is great too. Arrow season 3 seems to have something for everyone. I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited for a new season.
