Thanks to the big cliffhanger in the “Arrow” season 5 finale, fans are trying to figure out who we will be seeing when the show returns for season 6. Stephen Amell confirmed that at least one character survived the finale (only look if you want to know) and over the weekend he also teased that we’ll be seeing someone from the early “Arrow” days.
While speaking at a panel during Nashville Heroes & Villains FanFest, Amell teased fans by telling them a character who hasn’t been seen since season 1 will be returning.
“We have somebody returning to the show this year that we have not seen since Season 1.”
This one is going to be tough to figure out. Some fans on social media have suggested that Tommy Merlyn may return, but it’s easy to forget that Tommy did actually appear in a flashback in season 3.
Any guesses as to who it might be? Sound off in the comments below.
“Arrow” will return in October.
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”.
