The screen version of comics is taking leaps and bounds on all fronts. Animation and feature films are already familiar. Now, the American channel The CW in its "open spaces" has created a real television universe, based on DC comics and currently includes 4 major series. The most extraordinary of them is “Legends of Tomorrow”, the actors and characters of which deserve special attention.
Motley company
Why exactly this project stands out from the rest? Other series in this universe focus on one character. Yes, Flash, Arrows or Supergirl also have their own teams, assistants, many of which even have supernatural powers or are simply masked avengers, but the main character remains central. In “Legends” a real team of heroes is assembled, and each of them takes its place in it on an equal basis with the others. For “Legends of Tomorrow”, the actors were assembled from two main series of this line - “Arrows” and “Flash”. They got their own separate TV show, in which the audience saw the characters they already loved, with an interesting development of their storylines, and new fresh faces that fit perfectly into the team.
Main cast
On the nose is the third season of a fan-favorite science fiction television series, and over the previous two, there has been a slight castling among the main characters. Despite this, it is possible to distinguish the main characters, which are “Legends of Tomorrow”. The actors who previously played in Arrow and Flash returned to their roles.
Katie Lotz, who embodied Sarah Lance's Black Canary on the screen , changed into white and became, respectively, the White Canary - a member of the team of time-keeping heroes and the captain of Volnaleta.
Another “stranger” from Strela in the main cast of Legends is billionaire genius Ray Palmer, played by Brandon Routh. The main advantages of his character are his outstanding mind and his own hand-made Atom costume, which allows its wearer to shrink to microscopic dimensions.
In The Legends of Tomorrow, Victor Garber (Professor Martin Stein) from Flash recreated the Fire Storm with his new partner, Franz Dramech (Jefferson Jackson).
But the villainous couple Captain Chill and Heatwave, which transferred to the new series with the full cast of actors Wentworth Miller (Leonard Snart) and Dominic Purcell (Mick Rory), broke up to the sadness of many fans due to the death of the character of Miller. Therefore, the hero of Purcell has to pull the strap of a gloomy comedian and a notorious villain among the righteous in splendid isolation.
Departing and coming
Well, there are so many characters in the series "Legends of Tomorrow." Actors and their characters are replaced one after another. In the first season, Arthur Darville (Rip Hunter), Siarra Rene (Kendra Sanders, aka Orlitz) and Falk Hanchell (Carter Hall or Hawk Man) also starred. These were new faces in the television universe. But the divine pair of people-birds were removed after the first season, and Rip Hunter left the main team after the second and will only appear periodically. But the second season brought a fresh wave to the cast in the faces of Nick Zano (Nathaniel Haywood, also known as Steel) and Macy Richardson-Sellers (Amaya Jeevi). The actors themselves and their characters liked the audience, therefore, we hope that in the series they will stay for a long time.
