Arrow Season 4: 10 Characters That Absolutely Cannot Die
9. Sara Lance
Who She Is: Sara Lance is a young woman whose ill-advised sex cruise with Oliver Queen ultimately resulted in her taking the name “Canary” and joining the League of Assassins. After returning to Nanda Parbat following a few months in Starling, she paid a visit to her hometown in the Season 3 premiere just in time to be shot through the abdomen with arrows, topple off of a rooftop, bang into a dumpster, and land on her head in a dirty alley.
Why She Cannot Die: Well, Sara technically did die. Her fall from the roof, display on a table in the foundry, cold storage, and then burial in a pine box all seemed designed to drive home the point that Sara was super dead and not coming back this time.
As spoiled by the trailer for Legends of Tomorrow, Sara is super coming back from the dead again. Thanks to a dunk in a Lazarus Pit, Sara will officially be returning to the land of the living to join the cast of the new spinoff.
As this resurrection will be Sara’s third, she really needs to stay alive this time. All the material of her death has already been mined; killing her off yet again would be overkill in the worst way, and downright disrespectful to viewers.
