Stephen Amell says Deathstroke is the best Arrow villain, talks Season 6 theme

May 30, 2017 by Robert Kojder

At a weekend appearance at the London Heroes and Villains Fan Fest, Arrow‘s Stephen Amell was asked to choose his favorite villain between Slade Wilson and Prometheus, the main antagonist of Season 5.

According to The Mirror, Stephen Amell responded by saying: “Manu Bennett on season two did a marvelous job. I don’t think of Josh Segarra as a villain so much. Mostly because I know him. I think Josh and Prometheus fit best in terms of a season but from an iconic standpoint it’s Deathstroke.”

He also briefly touched on what to expect in Season 6, stating that: “The theme of Season 5 was legacy. From what I understand, the theme of Season 6 is family.”

Let us know below in the comments if you agree or disagree with Stephen Amell, along with what you thought of the recently concluded Season 5 of Arrow.
