Emily Bett Rickards, Katie Cassidy discuss ‘Arrow’ season 6 love triangle

As CW Superhero fandom grows with Black Lightning, fans of Arrow may be excited to learn more about the season 6 love triangle for Oliver and company.

During a panel at Heroes & Villains FanFest, star Emily Bett Rickards spoke about the next season, teasing a love triangle between Black Siren (Katie Cassidy), Felicity Smoak, and Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell).

Black Siren actress Katie Cassidy examined the possibilities. “That’s interesting,” Cassidy said. “That would be a really interesting dynamic.”

“I don’t know why, maybe it’s because we’re so close, but it’s so fun playing my Black Siren against Felicity. I just think this whole other thing comes out of me.”

Oliver once dated the character who Black Siren resembles, Laurel Lance (and her sister, for that matter), so the possibility doesn’t seem to be too far off for the millionare playboy vigilante to get caught up with the reincarnate of Laurel and his precious Felicity

Arrow recently wrapped is fifth season with a shocking cliffhanger that teased tragic fates for multiple characters.

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”.
