I think the idea would be don't mention a character too often that we cannot show as it just builds up peoples hope of them popping back up, which as we know is true given how many speculation videos get made for almost every comic property after the most vague allusion to other characters.
Glad Willa agreed to come back, that's often the thing people ignore is the shows could want the actors back for episodes but the actors themselves are just like no fuck it, Rosenbaum for instance I heard refused multiple offers to come back on Smallville after he left and wasn't easy to get back even for the series finale, sometimes it's just scheduling other times actors left on bad terms or they just got sick of the show/think they are too big for it now, but again glad Willa is back even just briefly for the finale season, it would feel wrong to not see her one last time at the very least.
Yeah. I suppose that makes sense but I am still kinda confused over why the actress left the show in the first place and if it was really her decision or the writers decided to write her off 'cause it doesn't look like she has appeared in much of anything since she left 'Arrow' and the only role she has had has been playing a voice actor in the 'Kingdom Hearts' video games and I thought she left 'cause she got a role in another show but looking back at the way they handled her character it didn't really feel like they knew what to do with her after Season 4 and it didn't really make much sense to me not to keep her as Speedy when they had killed Laurel off and Roy left the show and it would have made more sense to have had her stay with Oliver and train the new recruits. Either way I am glad she is coming back too 'cause I think they need to wrap her story up since we don't know what happened to her after Roy and her went their separate ways and it would make sense for Thea to come back and help her brother one last time before he dies.
With Michael Rosenbaum I remember him saying in some of his more recent interviews he was willing to come back for a 'Smallville' reunion or an animated season of 'Smallville' to play Lex again so I am kinda surprised he didn't agree to this but them not letting him see the script or telling him what role he was going to play would turn some actors off signing up to it. That being said why don't they get John Glover back instead? He was in 'Shazam' not long ago and it would be fun to see him in the 'Arrowverse' as some version of a Luthor or possibly another character.
