DC’s Legends of Tomorrow Season 3 is getting a new super hero on board the Waverider.
Tala Ashe, known for American Odyssey and Smash, has been cast as Zari Adrianna Tomaz, aka Isis in the DC comics.
In Legends of Tomorrow, Zari is from the year 2030 where technology has brought about incredible change in the future, but human nature hasn’t kept pace. Fear, prejudice and a lack of care for the planet have forced Zari to become a “grey hat hacktivist.” The character is described as as a computer nerd with a wry, combative attitude, she is a woman living a double life who doesn’t realize that she has secret, latent powers derived from an ancient, mystical source.
Tala Ashe joins stars Brandon Routh, Victor Garber, Arthur Darvill, Dominic Purcell, Caity Lotz, Franz Drameh, Nick Zano, Amy Pemberton, Matt Letscher and Maisie Richardson-Sellers.
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow Season 3 returns in the Fall.
