Emily Bett Rickards almost seems like an overachiever. She seems to have understood from a very young age what she wanted to do and be and has been working to achieve it ever since. While she’s seemingly settled into a life of TV fame there’s still a lot of time left for her to move forward. Plus, it’s not so much settling as it is making a name for herself so that people will understand just where she came from and how she came to be the superstar she kind of already is. For those of us that still recall the 80’s and 90’s sensations that came and went she’s still something of a youngster and it’s easy to say that she has a lot of time left on her hands to really develop into a memorable part of Hollywood. It’s the truth however since she’s still in her 20’s and has a great deal of potential left to realize if she really wants it.
Everyone stands a chance of striking it big, all they need to do is find the right moment.

Emily has played the character of Felicity Smoake in The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Arrow, and Vixen.

3. She believes that becoming romantically involved makes a person miss certain things.
This is something that many people know about but few will ever recognize since they don’t tend to hold a great many things against those they are involved with.
