Tonight following the airing of the Arrow episode “Missing” The CW showed a trailer for the Arrow Season 5 finale which is full of guest stars! Oh yeah… and the episode finally shows the end of Oliver’s “five years in Hell” leading to the show’s premiere!
Here’s how The CW describes it:
DEATHSTROKE, NYSSA AL GHUL, MERLYN AND DIGGER HARKNESS JOIN OLIVER’S BATTLE AGAINST PROMETHEUS – The battle between Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Adrian Chase (Josh Segarra) culminates in a final epic battle on Lian Yu. After recent events, Oliver decides to recruit a group of unlikely allies – Slade (guest star Manu Bennett), Nyssa (guest star Katrina Law), Merlyn (John Barrowman) and Digger Harkness (guest star Nick. E. Tarabay) – to defeat Chase. However, Chase has his own army – Black Siren (guest star Katie Cassidy), Evelyn Sharp (guest star Madison McLaughlin) and Talia al Ghul (guest star Lexa Doig) – and the forces collide in an explosive season finale. Jesse Warn directed the episode written by Wendy Mericle & Marc Guggenheim (#523). Original airdate 5/24/2017.
The trailer can be found below. Funny to see Manu Bennett (Deathstroke) so much in this trailer and at the end of “Missing,” considering how much Manu kept trying to insist on Twitter that he wasn’t returning for the Arrow finale.
