Stephen Amell is a pretty important part of “Arrow.” He does play the main character after all. It’s hard to imagine Stephen Amell playing anyone else on the show, but with the way the “Arrowverse” works, anything is possible.

We’ve seen actors play multiple characters in the “Arrowverse” but that’s not something fans usually see on “Arrow.” However, playing a different character on the show seems to be something that Stephen Amell has thought about, because he has a specific character in mind.
When asked which other character besides Oliver that he would like to play on the show if he could play someone else, he said that he would like to play Diggle.

“Arrow” season 5 recently wrapped up and the finale ended on a shocking cliffhanger. Oliver was forced to confront his past in season 5, and the overall theme of the season was “legacy.”
Amell also noted during the panel at Heroes and Villains Fan Fest that the theme of season 6 will be “family.”
“Arrow” will return for season 6 later this year.
