TV Line has shared an exciting preview image from the upcoming second season of Stargirl, offering a first look at new series regular Nick Tarabay (Arrow; Spartacus) as the ancient evil known as Eclipso.
The character, who first briefly teased in the first season finale, has been described as an "ancient entity of corruption and vengeance, who is described as physically imposing and frightening. Brimming with a cold, terrifying darkness, Eclipso exploits the flaws of others, reveling in the impure and sinful, sadistically feeding off the dark side of humanity."
Tarabay previously played Digger Harkness, a.k.a. Captain Boomerang, in three episodes of Arrow, but considering he's deceased and wasn't resurrected during the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover event, it looks like the door was more than open for him to take on this completely different character.
In addition to Tarabay, the new season will also feature Jonathan Cake (The Affair) in a recurring role as Injustice Society alum The Shade, and John Wesley Shipp (The Flash), guest-starring as Golden Age speedster Jay Garrick.
No word yet on a premiere date, but Stargirl is tentatively slated to return for its thirteen-episode second season sometime this summer.
