Arrow Season 6 Will See Oliver Take On A Mentor Role

Arrow is an interesting show. It may have only been on for five seasons so far, but we've seen ten years of Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) going through hell. But with the flashbacks done, his son knowing who he is and watching just about everyone he love possibly being blown up, it's safe to say that we're probably going to get a different Green Arrow when season six premieres.

Executive producer Marc Guggenheim told EW.com that the Emerald Archer will be taking on more of a mentor role:

This season, we're trying to give you a different version of Oliver. Because of the journey he went on in season 5, he finally got to a place where he was ready to follow everyone's advice and discard the past and move on with his life. The Oliver Queen that you'll meet in 601, he's still the Oliver you know and sometimes love, but he has a different sense of himself… In season 6, I think you'll see Oliver giving the people in his life the advice for a change. He's been through five years of being this superhero and he went through five years of hell before that, so he's got 10 years of very heavy experience to start to bring to bare, and that's something we're interested in seeing more of a mentoring Oliver as the various people in his life face their challenges.

Production on Arrow season six begun today on an episode aptly entitled Fallout. The series moves to a new night and time starting Thursday, October 12th at 9 PM.
