Stephen Amell confirms Manu Bennett return in Arrow season 6

July 11, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Having returned to the series for its season five finale, it seems we’ll be seeing a lot more of Slade Wilson in the upcoming sixth season of Arrow, with Stephen Amell confirming that Manu Bennett will be back as Deathstroke, along with another character who has been absent since the first season.

“I can report that Manu Bennett is back to being a part of the show, and I think we will see him multiple times this year, which is awesome,” said Amell during a convention appearance at the Heroes and Villains Fest (via TV Line). “We [also] have somebody returning to the show this year that we have not seen since Season 1.”
