Last season on DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” the Legends battled the Legion of Doom which was made up of Damien Darhk, Malcolm Merlyn and Eobard Thawne. In season 3 fans will be seeing the return of Damien Darhk, who will somehow be resurrected from the timeline where he was killed by Oliver Queen in “Arrow” season 4.
Fans will also be seeing Damien Darhk’s daughter Eleanor in season 3. Entertainment Weekly reports that Eleanor will be played by Brandon Routh’s (Ray Palmer) wife Courtney Ford. According to the report she will be making her first appearance in the fifth episode of season 3.
Eleanor is described as a character who has “a charming dose of otherworldly creepiness” and she’s being compared to, “Wednesday Addams all grown up.” Eleanor has an uncanny ability to manipulate others. Her unique dark talents are said to stem from the fact that she is Damien Darhk’s daughter.
Ford has previously appeared on shows such as “Dexter,” “True Blood” and “Supernatural” just to name a few. Ironically enough Ray Palmer will reportedly have an unexplainable attraction to the character.
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.
