Legends of Tomorrow Season 4 Cast
Sometimes fan patience pays off. It remains one of the great injustices of our current golden age of superhero television that Constantine only ran for one season on NBC. Despite a fan campaign to make a second season happen, it wasn’t to be. But you simply do not waste a ridiculously perfect piece of casting like Matt Ryan as John Constantine. Ryan’s Constantine has since returned to work his dark magic on Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow. He has his own animated series, too.
Adding Constantine to the team makes perfect sense. Legends has long been a kind of “island of misfit toys” for cool, slightly displaced characters, and it’s known for swapping up its roster with abandon. This season in particular has been a busy one in that regard. But the current season’s focus on magic and demons has meant that we’ve heard Constantine’s name come up several times, even when he hasn’t actually shown up. If he’s going to be around for every adventure next year, that might be a sign they’re considering other stories where having a magic specialist around will be necessary.
The bad news is that Keiynan Lonsdale won’t be back as Wally West/Kid Flash after the season premiere. He might show up occasionally after that, but he’s no longer a series regular. We have some more details on that right here.
However, we can expect much more of Nora Dahrk this season. Deadline broke the news that Courtney Ford will now be a series regular.
Maisie Richardson-Sellers will also return!
Ramona Young (Blockers, Santa Clarita Diet) joins the cast in the series regular role of Alaska Yu. A typical twentysomething easily swept up by romantic notions and fantasy novels, she’s something of an expert in the world of the magical creatures that the Legends encounter in season four. In the company of the Legends, she soon learns to get her head out of the clouds to become a kickass superhero.
Tom Wilson (The Informant, Back to the Future, The Mayor) will recur as Nate’s father, Hank Heywood. With a lifetime in the military and Dept. of Defense, Hank is part of a long line of Heywoods to serve the country. Charming and charismatic, he’s left big shoes for Nate to fill — and it doesn’t help that Nate can’t tell him he’s secretly a Legend!
Legends of Tomorrow Season 4 Story
Here’s the official synopsis for Legends of Tomorrow Season 4:
After defeating the demon Mallus by cuddling him to death with a giant stuffed animal named Beebo, the Legends are ready to ease off the gas. Sara (Caity Lotz) and her team join Ava Sharpe (Jes Macallan) and the Time Bureau to help clean up the last few remaining anachronisms. The job seems straightforward enough until Constantine (Matt Ryan) arrives to inform them that, in solving one major problem, they have created another, much larger one. When the Legends let time crumble in order to release and defeat Mallus, the barrier between worlds softened. History is now infected with “Fugitives” – magical creatures from myths, fairytales, and legends. Having been expelled throughout time by people like Constantine, these Fugitives are now returning to our world in droves and making a real mess of things. As the Time Bureau is distrustful of and ill-equipped to deal with magic, the Legends must team up with everyone’s favorite demonologist to set history back on track.
Sara and Constantine are joined by compassionate inventor Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh), hotheaded ex-con Mick Rory (Dominic Purcell), rebellious totem-bearer Zari (Tala Ashe), and heartbroken historian-turned-superhero Nate (Nick Zano) as they set out to save the world – and their legacy. It’s the familiar fun of the Legends time-travelling across historical events and encountering famous figures with an added shot of magical craziness!
We’ll update this with more info as soon as we have it.
