iZOMBIE Star Rahul Kohli Set To Guest Star On SUPERGIRL As The DC Comics Villain Biomax
Following Teri Hatcher and Kevin Sorbo's casting, The CW's Supergirl has added yet another villain, this time in Rahul Kohli who has signed on to play genius Jack Spheer, a.k.a. Biomax! Come take a look!
Entertainment Weekly has learned that Rahul Kohli will guest-star on an upcoming episode of The CW's hit superhero drama Supergirl as Jack Spheer, who DC fans should probably recognize by his villainous mind-controlling alter-ego, Biomax.
This iteration of Spheer is being described as a charismatic tech genius who has spent decades working on a medical innovation that will eradicate major illnesses and change the face of the world - that is, if it works. He'll arrive in National City to showcase his latest innovation to members of the media, which includes both Snapper Carr and Kara Danvers, and to possibly rekindle his old relationship with ex-girlfriend Lena Luthor.
In a statement, Kohli, who currently stars on the network's zombie/medical drama iZombie, expressed his immense excitement at getting another opportunity to play around in the world of DC Comics: “I’m so excited to be working on Supergirl starring as Jack Spheer. It’s given me the chance to continue my relationship with The CW as well as fulfill my goal of meeting a Kryptonian.”
Kohli will debut in episode eighteen, titled "Ace Reporter," which is an episode that executive producer Andrew Kreisberg says will tackle the importance of journalism and the importance of journalism ethics.
