Arrow’s Season 5 finale last year left us a ton of questions on where Team Arrow would go for Season 6. One of our biggest questions we wanted to know was who survived the aftermath of Prometheus’ surprise? Lucky for us Arrow Executive Producers Wendy Mericle and Marc Guggenheim gave us a sneak peek of what we can expect in Season 6 and gave us a look at some of the villains we are going to see.
One of the biggest villains we will see will be Richard Dragon. He will lead a team of villains to plague Team Arrow and Star City. While Richard Dragon might be one of the main ring leaders they also talked about Black Siren’s prominent role for this upcoming season.
Mericle elaborated:
There’s going to be a team of villains this season but one of the biggest ones we’ll see, [and] we’ll see her from the beginning, is Black Siren. We’re very excited to have Katie [Cassidy] back on the show and it’s a great villain because it really speaks to the emotional state of everyone on the show, particularly with respect to Oliver because it’s an old friend coming back to do some evil. So, it’s going to have some resonance.

This is exciting to hear since we’ve been wondering not only who survived, but where they were planning on taking Black Siren in terms of evil or good. We know that her character will be further explored this season which will give us greater insight into the character. It also appears we can expect a more complex character in the Black Siren.
The sixth season of Arrow will go live on its new night, Thursday, October 12 at 9/8c. It will run right after the Supernatural Season 13 premiere.
