DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow will be returning for season 3 in the fall, and it sounds like fans are in for a wild ride. “Legends” is the show that throws the rule book out the window, and it’s been teased that each episode in the new season will be like a brand new feature length movie.
Fans can expect some characters to return such as Damien Darhk, and Captain Cold, and it seems that two other characters could be making appearances as well. During a recent interview with DCLegendsTV.com, executive producer Phil Klemmer noted that there is an idea to bring Jonah Hex back in episode 5.
“Yeah. For sure. I feel like if we make it back the Old West… I mean, we did have a crazy pitch for Jonah Hex appearing as a future bounty hunter in a Blade Runner-shaped story. We haven’t broken that story yet, but it’s certainly up there on a 3×5 card.”
Jonah Hex isn’t the only character who’s being considered for a return to the “Arrowverse” as Klemmer also noted that Constantine is on their wishlist.
“Yeah. I mean, come on. It’s certainly on our wish list, as is a Constantine crossover. It’s on the wish list; we can’t promise it, but you know what – how cool would that be?”
This isn’t the first time that a possible Constantine appearance has been mentioned for season 3. Phil Klemmer recently revealed at the TCA press tour that the showrunners are actively pushing for the character to appear in season 3 which will be leaning more toward supernatural and occult themes as opposed to sci-fi and time travel.
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.
