“Arrow” fans are still waiting for answers thanks to the big cliffhanger that took place at the end of the season 5 finale. Lian Yu exploded with everyone on the island except Oliver Queen and his son William, and it looks like Team Arrow may have lost some members.
The first trailer for “Arrow” season 6 was recently released over the weekend, and it confirms that Deathstroke and Dinah Drake survived the explosion, but the fates of other characters still hang in the balance.
In “Arrow” season 5, Oliver Queen recruited a new Team Arrow, but executive producer Marc Guggenheim told Comicbook.com at San Diego International Comic Con that fans shouldn’t expect him to recruit new members in season 6.
“Regardless of what the size of the team is, post-season 5, we are not looking right now to add additional people to it.”
One can’t help but wonder how much smaller the team will be when the show returns. Looks like we’ll find out in the fall.
“Arrow” will return on Thursday, October 12.
After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the North China Sea. He returned home to Star City, bent on righting the wrongs done by his family and fighting injustice.
As the Green Arrow, he protects his city with the help of former soldier John Diggle (David Ramsey), computer-science expert Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), his vigilante-trained sister Thea Queen (Willa Holland), Deputy Mayor Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), brilliant inventor Curtis Holt (Echo Kellum), and his new recruits, street-savvy Rene Ramirez (Rick Gonzalez) and meta-human Dinah Drake (Juliana Harkavy).
Oliver has finally solidified and strengthened his crime-fighting team only to have it threatened when unexpected enemies from his past return to Star City, forcing Oliver to rethink his relationship with each member of his “family”.
