The Cast of Arrow Preview Season 7 at SDCC

The cast of Arrow returned to San Diego Comic Con for their seventh season today, July 21. Stephen Amell, Emily Bett Rickards, David Ramsey, Colton Haynes, Echo Kellum, Juliana Harkavy and Rick Gonzalez hit up Ballroom 20 to make some fun announcements regarding their new season.

During the panel it was announced that with Oliver now behind bars, he will come face to face with many of his former enemies, including Ben Turner/Bronze Tiger (Michael Jai White), Derek Sampson (Cody Runnels) and Danny “Brick” Brickwell (Vinnie Jones). With all three held in Slabside, Oliver will be forced to confront these and other villains he locked up while wearing the hood.

It was also announced that Team Arrow will come up against The Longbow Hunters, a legendary group of assassins recruited by Ricardo Diaz (Kirk Acevedo) to enact his revenge on Oliver and the team after they took down his burgeoning criminal empire in season six. A trio of villains more lethal than any the team has faced, The Longbow Hunters include: Red Dart (Holly Elissa – Whistler), a ruthless and precise killer, Kodiak (Michael Jonsson – Van Helsing), a beast of a man with brute force, and Silencer (Miranda Edwards – The Magicians, Orphan Black), a master of stealth.

The new season will premiere this coming October. I still have one question, with Oliver in jail how is he going to come across The Longbow Hunters?!
