LEGENDS OF TOMORROW at Comic-Con: Matt Ryan on the Return of Constantine, Plus Two Cast for Season 4
July 21, 2018 by Marisa Roffman
LEGENDS OF TOMORROW has added a few new faces to season 4.
Ramona Young will be a series regular, playing Alaska Yu. Per WB, Alaska is a “typical twentysomething easily swept up by romantic notions and fantasy novels, she’s something of an expert in the world of the magical creatures that the Legends encounter in season [4]. In the company of the Legends, she soon learns to get her head out of the clouds to become a kickass superhero.”
Additionally, BACK TO THE FUTURE’s Tom Wilson has landed the recurring role of Hank Heywood…Nate’s (Nick Zano) father. Per WB, “With a lifetime in the military and Dept. of Defense, Hank is part of a long line of Heywoods to serve the country. Charming and charismatic, he’s left big shoes for Nate to fill — and it doesn’t help that Nate can’t tell him he’s secretly a Legend!”
“It’s nice we get to go back to the origins of Nate,” Zano said during the show’s Comic-Con panel. “Tom, he’s phenomenal. It’s great to play around with him as Nate’s dad. And I get to find out cool behind the scenes BACK TO THE FUTURE stuff!”
And a familiar face will be making his presence known: Constantine (Matt Ryan) will play a major role in season 4. “It was four years ago when CONSTANTINE was first on NBC,” Ryan said of his former series. “I got to play this role in the ARROWverse…now I’m back and I get to play with these guys. It’s awesome.”
But what Constantine’s relationships will be like on LEGENDS is a mystery to even his portrayer. “Everything I’ve studied about this character is from the comic books,” Ryan noted. “We have a bunch of characters that Constantine has never interacted with before. I think Mick is someone he would butt heads with a lot. But he provides a flame for Constantine’s terrible habit!”
