The cast of DC Entertainment's live-action Titans has added another cast member today, this time in the form of Ryan Potter (Big Hero 6) as Beast Boy, a.k.a. Garfield "Gar" Logan. The character has become a fan-favourite after taking on a lead role in the animated Teen Titans Go series and it's been rumoured for a while that the shape-shifter would appear on the DC streaming service's first show.
According to the official character description for Titans, "Gar contracted a lethal disease on an African safari with his geneticist parents, only to experience some “bizarre side effects” after being treated with an experimental drug. In addition to his hair and skin turning completely green, Gar — described as both “wisecracking” and “fun-loving” — can also transform into animals of any size."
The live-action series revolves around a group of "soon-to-be superheroes from every corner of the DC Universe" who are recruited by Robin (Brenton Thwaites). Other cast members include Anna Diop (The Messengers) as Starfire, Teagan Croft (Home and Away) as Raven, Alan Ritchson (Blood Drive) as Hawk, Minka Kelly (Friday Night Lights) as Dove and Lindsey Gort (The Carrie Diaries) as Detective Amy Rohrbach.
