Nick Zano Cast as ‘Hourman’ in Legends of Tomorrow Season 2!
The JSA is growing as DC’s Legends of Tomorrow heads into its second season. In the latest casting news today, actor Nick Zano will be joining the show as the superhero, ‘Hourman‘. For more details, check out the news below, and sound off with your thoughts AFTER THE JUMP!
Nick Zano is joining the cast of the CW’s superhero drama series DC’S Legends of Tomorrow as a new series regular for Season 2. He will play Dr. Nate Heywood, a historian whose grandfather was Commander Steel, a member of the Justice Society of America.
In the comics, Nate becomes Steel/Citizen Steel, a former member of the Justice League of America. The producers of the CW series are being ambiguous whether Nate will walk in his grandfather’s super heroic footsteps but, given the superhero nature of the show, that appears almost certain.
The original Steel comic book character Henry Heywood/Commander Steel was introduced back in 1978. He should not be confused with a better known DC character, John Henry Irons, who became a Superman-influenced character calling himself Steel after the famous Death of Superman storyline in the early 90s.
