Wentworth Miller’s been part of the Arrowverse for a good long while now. He first appeared as Leonard Snart on The Flash back in 2014, then he was a series regular on the first season of Legends Of Tomorrow, and then he was given a deal that allowed the character to hop between series.
However, all that’s coming to an end. Miller posted the news on his Instagram, telling his followers that “I’ve had a tremendous time playing this character. It’s been an opportunity, an education, and a f-cking blast.”
Meanwhile, over on Supergirl, a classic love interest from the comics is joining the roster.
TVLine reports that Jesse Rath (Defiance) has been cast as Brainiac 5, a recurring role in the show’s third season. Here’s their rundown on the character and how he’ll fit into the show.
“Half computer, half organic life and boasting a 12-level intellect, Brainiac 5 is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes who travels to National City from the 31st Century to help Supergirl and the DEO battle Reign, the villain that L-Corp CEO Samantha Arias (played by Odette Annable) is on track to becoming.”
They note that co-showrunner Andrew Kreisberg told them that “”Someone down the road will like Kara a lot, which will be a lot of fun.”
