Vandal Savage Cast in CW's 'Legends of Tomorrow'

Vandal Savage is coming to Legends of Tomorrow. For months, fans have know he's coming, but there was no casting news until now. According to EW, Danish actor Casper Crump has been cast as the immortal villain and will appear on the cross-over episodes of The Flash and Arrow prior to making his home on Legends of Tomorrow in 2016. Vandal Savage is an immortal who has lived for more than 6,000 years and had his hand in many major empires and rulers throughout the years.

Recently, Falk Hentschel was cast as Hawkman for the show as well. He joins Brandon Routh as the Atom, Caity Lotz as White Canary, Wentworth Miller as Captain Cold, Dominic Purcell as Heat Wave, Victor Garber as Firestorm, Ciara Renée as Hawkgirl and Arthur Darvil as Rip Hunter.

A nice suit makes everyone look evil.

No clue who he is but at least he resemble Savage.

You could chose worse for the shows villain and the casting choice.

This is the first thing I've heard about the show that gets me interested in it.

He looks funny, not evil.

A bit better.

Seems alright. Guess we'll find out in time.

Well he does look the part. Can't wait to see how he portrays the character.

Looking forward to see how he is as Savage

Nice. He looks like Savage at least. How's his acting? Any recommendations?

It took this long to cast the main bad guy for something they've been promoting for months now? Really?

I know about DC Legends of Tomorrow before Season 1 of Flash ended, what they heck were they doing with all that time?

STOP HYPING ME!!!

This show looks better and better!

@docholiday: that is a really good question. They were probably prepping flash S2 and arrow S4

He certainly has Savage's primal look. Good choice.

I don't need reasonable responses! :P this is the internet dang-it, I want irrational anger and pictures of kittens!

@docholiday: I don't have a picture of a cat. But I can pull an irrational response.

Why do these dump people down at the CW always try to bore us with this over saturated romance bullshit, it's time they took their head out their ass and made something decent! Otherwise I'll go down there myself and tear them a new one.

Of course I don't mean that

The excess romance does feel forced, especially in Arrow, Ollie switches partners faster than Norwegian Folk Dancers.

At least in Flash all the romance is based directly on the comics so it feels more natural

i can see it

@docholiday: can't argue with you there, I used to think felicity was different, S3 romance changed that.BIG time

Nice. He would play better than Dean Cain's version in Smallville.
