When you think of Deathstroke, you tend to think more of an unstoppable killing machine, and not a little green puppet on steroids. However, Manu Bennett recently compared his character to “Yoda on Mirakuru.” We wont have to wait long to find out how accurate Bennett’s Star Wars reference was. Slade Wilson and Ollie Queen square off in tonight’s all new episode of Arrow.
Arrow is back tonight with an all new episode, titled “The Promise.”
The official plot synopsis for tonight’s all new episode reads:
“Oliver is shocked to learn that Slade is in Starling City. Back on the island, Oliver, Slade and Sara prepare to take over the freighter from Ivo, and Sara urges Oliver to kill Ivo. Although he feels guilty about it, Oliver agrees to do it.”
Deathstroke actor Manu Bennett recently spoke with TVGuide about the new episode:
"He's basically following through on a promise that he made Oliver back on the island,Slade Wilson has a bone to pick with Oliver in regards to the death of Shado."
Bennett also spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the upcoming fight between Slade and Ollie:
“I was his teacher, you know? It’s like putting Luke Skywalker up against Yoda on Mirakuru. He’s going to be a bad little green thing, isn’t he? But you know, Slade’s no little green thing; he’s actually a fully trained soldier. He knows weapons and fighting. He taught Oliver everything he knows, so if Oliver turns in a fight against Slade, he’s up against himself plus more. He’s a very youthful version of the abilities of Slade, but Slade’s a war-torn soldier as well. And then once all of that darkness that has been in the past with Slade is skewed at all, then you got a very, very dangerous opponent, and that’s why I think Slade arriving in Starling City. Oliver’s in all kinds of trouble, as is his family and friends.”
Arrow airs tonight on the CW at 8:00 p.m.
