The Arrow is about to get his first fan, and she's crazy and lethal.

According to EW, Supernatural alum (she played Sam and Dean's mom!) Amy Gumenick nabbed the role of Carrie Cutter in Arrow Season 3. Cutter's alias is Cupid. 

Arrow executive producer Andrew Kreisberg created the character while he was writing for the Green Arrow/Black Canary comic book series.

He always imagined what fun it would be for Arrow to have a crazed fan and to create a villain who would last. (Maybe this is a hint she'll be a recurring baddie!)

Of course, any fan of the Arrow will be of the killing kind so her obsessive crush will be uniquely dangerous. Cupid usually shoots the arrows, so it's easy to understand her attraction (as if it's the arrows we love...).

This news came right after we learned Nathan Funk had been cast as Felicity's ex, so a lot of heart-pounding thrills are lined up for the coming season!
