Wally West Joining DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow As A Series Regular

0

The team on DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” has undergone several changes since the show first started, and the team recently lost two members now that Jax and Stein are gone.

John Constantine has boarded the Waverider temporarily, but EW has confirmed that Wally West will be filling the spot left by Firestorm. According to the report, Wally will join the team in episode 11, and then he will be a series regular from episode 13 onward.

“We loved working with Keiynan in our series premiere — the episode in which we learned that in between seasons 2 and 3 he had been fighting crime in Central City with Nick Zano’s Nate Heywood. So when his character stepped away from Flash to go on walkabout, after being dumped and feeling somewhat estranged from his family and team, we knew that Wally West would fit in perfectly on Legends,” said executive producer Phil Klemmer in a statement. “After all, our show is about a collection of unlikely heroes who all began their journeys questioning who they are and where they belong — only to find those answers while traveling through time and having wacky adventures. So now, Wally West is not only back in the company of old friends from the Arrowverse, he’s fighting alongside a former enemy and career arsonist Mick Rory/Dom Purcell. By the end of this season, Wally will learn that the Legends have a different definition of what it means to be a hero.”

DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” will be going through another big change when the show returns in February, as the series will be taking over the Monday night time slot currently occupied by “Supergirl” on the CW.

“Legends” will return on February 12. Stay tuned for more updates on the rest of the season as they become available.
