'Red Tornado' Confirmed To Appear In SUPERGIRL As 'Dr. T.O. Morrow' Is Cast
We got our first look at Lucy Lane yesterday, and the Supergirl news keeps on coming, as it's been revealed today via official description confirms that Red Tornado will also be showing up.
ComicBook.com has revealed that Iddo Goldberg has joined Supergirl as Dr. T.O. Morrow (yes, that's actually his name), but will we see his creation, the Justice League member better known as Red Tornado? It certainly sounds that way. The official description provided to them by Warner Bros. Television reveals that, "Red Tornado is the most advanced android the world has ever seen. Designed by scientist T.O. Morrow for the U.S. Army as the ultimate superweapon, he soon becomes sentient, posing a grave danger to National City -- including the people Supergirl cares about most." It's worth noting that in the comics, Morrow is also Red Tornado's creator, but it hasn't been made clear whether Goldberg is playing both characters or just the evil inventor. If it's the latter, casting news for the hero should follow soon. However, it could be that Morrow based his creation's likeness after himself, and so they'll use the Salem star for both roles. Thoughts?
