DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” will always feature a revolving cast of characters, and soon a DC fan favorite will be making his debut on the show. Matt Ryan will be reprising his role as John Constantine in episode 10 of season 3, and executive producer Marc Guggenheim recently teased his arrival with a picture of the script for “Daddy Darhkest.”

The title is obviously a nod to Damien Darhk and it seems that he’ll be making his return in the episode. Given that the title is “Daddy Darhkest” it also seems safe to say that we’ll be meeting Darhk’s daughter who’s set to be played by Brandon Routh’s (Ray Palmer) real life wife Courtney Ford.
Executive producer Phil Klemmer recently teased the upcoming episode by saying it will take fans back to “Arrow” season 4 shortly after Damien Darhk was killed by the Green Arrow.
“As for the character of Constantine, we knew that an alienated, chain-smoking, bisexual, world-weary demonologist would feel right at home among our Legends,” Klemmer says. “His appearance in episode 310 will involve the following: a revisiting of Arrow season four and the events following that season’s finale episode; a confrontation with this season’s Big Bad on Legends — the name we’ve only heard whispered until now Mallus; some hot sex — something that has been in short supply on the Waverider thus far in season three; and Damien Darhk (Neil McDonough), because how can you do an episode about dark magic and not have Damien Darhk? More than anything, the episode promises to be scary as you know what — tonally it’s The Exorcist meets One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest. Demonic possession in a mental institution, what’s not to love?”
DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” airs Tuesday nights on the CW.
