Season 3 of DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” is shaping up to be very interesting. Damien Darhk will be returning, Tracy Ifeachor recently joined the cast as Kuasa, and Jes Macallan also joined the cast of Ava Sharpe. Now it’s been confirmed that Gorilla Grodd will be making an appearance in the new season as well. The news was confirmed earlier today at the TCA.

It sounds like fans will also need to brace themselves for some fast paced episodes, as executive producer Phil Klemmer also teased that each episode will be like a new movie.

It’s already been confirmed by the season 3 synopsis that the Legends will be disbanding for a while, and it looks liek Sara Lance will be making her way into the world of retail.
When #LegendsofTomorrow returns, Sara will be working at Sink, Shower & Stuff (Bed, Bath & Beyond), per @caitylotz

DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” will return for season 3 on Tuesday, October 10.
After the defeat of Eobard Thawne and his equally nefarious Legion of Doom, the Legends face a new threat created by their actions at the end of last season. In revisiting a moment in time that they had already participated in, they have essentially fractured the timeline and created anachronisms – a scattering of people, animals, and objects all across time! Our team must find a way to return all the anachronisms to their original timelines before the time stream falls apart. But before our Legends can jump back into action, Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) and his newly established Time Bureau call their methods into question.
With the Time Bureau effectively the new sheriffs in town, the Legends disband – until Mick Rory (Dominic Purcell) discovers one of them in the middle of his well-deserved vacation in Aruba. Seeing this as an opportunity to continue their time traveling heroics, Sara (Caity Lotz) wastes no time in getting the Legends back together. We reunite with billionaire inventor Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh), the unconventional historian-turned-superhero Nick Heywood (Nick Zano), and Professor Martin Stein (Victor Garber) and Jefferson “Jax” Jackson (Franz Drameh), who together form the meta-human Firestorm.
Once reunited, the Legends will challenge the Time Bureau’s authority over the timeline and insist that however messy their methods may be, some problems are beyond the Bureau’s capabilities. Some problems can only be fixed by Legends.
