Katie Cassidy will be returning as an Arrow series regular as Lance's Earth-2 doppelganger Black Siren. In a statement Arrow co-show runner Marc Guggenheim said:
One of the things that most excites us about Arrow is that we go where the story takes us. Last year, the story took us to the tragic death of Laurel Lance. This year, our mid season finale reintroduced us to Laurel’s doppelgänger, Black Siren.
We were so taken by Katie’s fearless interpretation of this character that we knew her story was not yet finished. We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Katie back to Arrow as Black Siren, though as her appearances on Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow this season show, she never really left the family.
Rick Gonzalez (Rene) and Juliana Harkavy (Dinah) have been promoted to series regulars in the upcoming season of the superhero drama.
Ragman will be back in Season 6. Though Rory seemed to drop off the face of the DC planet in the latter half of Season 5, Marc Guggenheim has confirmed via Twitter that the man and his rags will be back in Episode 5 of the upcoming season...

Liam Hall (Camp, Lucifer) has been cast as Slade Wilson's son in Arrow Season 6. According to EW, Hall will play Joe Wilson. Joe has followed in his father's footsteps by joining A.S.I.S., the secret Australian military agency Slade once belonged to. When Arrow Season 6 catches up with him, he will be stuck in a remote Kasnian prison under the alias Kane Wolfman.
This all seems to line up with what we know will be a two-part Slade Wilson adventure in Season 6. It also lines up with Manu Bennett's excitement over returning to the Arrow set. Recently, Bennett shared a photo of himself dressed as Slade with the caption "The Sun Never Sets #Arrow Season 6 #sladewilson #deathstroke," teasing his character's return in Arrow Season 6.
Kirk Acevedo will join Arrow Season 6 for a recurring villain run as DC Comics kung-fu fighter Richard Dragon, as confirmed by EW. The casting confirms the show's recent Comic Con panel tease of the character's introduction. Per the description, Acevedo’s version of Dragon, born Ricardo Diaz, will manifest as “a hardened ex-con recently released from prison for crimes he didn’t commit.” As it continues at length:
Richard Dragon has classic comic roots dating back to his 1975 first appearance in DC’s Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter, arriving during the height of the post-Bruce-Lee 1970s chopsocky kung-fu craze (Marvel introduced its own such offering, Shang-Chi, “Master of Kung Fu,” in 1973 and, more famously, Iron Fist in 1974). Richard Dragon underwent quite an evolution over the years, going from martial-arts hero to thief/rogue.
Dragon's 2013 reinvention in the New 52 Prime Earth canon manifested as Ricardo Diaz Jr., leader of criminal gang the Longbow Hunters and seeker of vengeance against Green Arrow after the vigilante allegedly exposed his father’s criminal empire. That quest started with a stint with the League of Assassins under the tutelage of a master named Richard Dragon, whose name Diaz eventually assumes after lessons of compassion fail to take hold on the wayward apprentice. Yet, Green Arrow’s companion John Diggle eventually becomes Diaz/Dragon’s target, since it is later learned that he, not the Arrow, was responsible for his father’s downfall.
Sydelle Noel has joined the cast of Arrow Season 6 in a recurring role. According to Variety, Noel will play Sananda Watson, an FBI agent who is investigating Oliver's connection to the Green Arrow. Uh oh!
Noel is best known for her role as Cherry "Junk Chain" Bang in Glow. She also has a role in the upcoming Black Panther movie.
It was revealed at SDCC 2017 that Michael Emerson will join Arrow Season 6. At present, it has not yet been revealed who Emerson will be playing. We hope to learn more about his involvement soon.

EW also interview Harkavy about what it's been like to take up the mantle of the iconic superhero character. In it, the actress gave a number of teases about Arrow Season 6. It will pick up five months following the explosive events of the Season 5 finale and will deal with the fallout from Green Arrow becoming a public enemy in Season 5.

She’s fighting for her family now, and that family extends beyond the team. It’s going to grow into something that basically represents the city for her. This is her new home. As someone who basically wandered the earth for revenge, these are higher stakes for her now. Star City and the team mean a lot to her.
