legends of tomorrow
Can DC’s misfit heroes restore the time they’ve broken?
WitH all tHE damagE tHEy’vE dONE to time, the crew of the Waverider are about to be taken to task by the newest person to join their ranks, Zari adrianna tomaz, played by tala ashe. “my character is from the future,” says Legends Of
Tomorrow’s new series regular. “She’s from the year 2030. She is going to meet the legends in 2030, and she is a woman who speaks her mind. She’s powerful, she is a hacker activist. She’s seen the fallout from some events that happened in 2017 – the rise of populism, the refugee crisis. She’s experienced this very bleak future. So she thinks the legends should not just fix history, they should improve history. So they don’t exactly see eye to eye at the beginning. She’s going to butt heads with a lot of the legends.”
Of all the legends, Brandon routh’s ray Palmer will have the biggest conflict with Zari.
“Her and ray are philosophically different. Zari is not quite the glass half empty type, but ray is definitely the glass half full type. But the journey of this season is going to be finding out how she becomes part of the team.” as for how ray will approach fixing time, routh remarks, “in the second episode we find out about an invention he’s been working on, which helps in that episode and i think throughout the season, helping maintain the anachronisms that they have so that they can better deal with them. ray’s going back to his inventing roots a lot more this season.”
