Other latest "Supergirl" TV series cast members are Justice Leak as Roderick Rose / Hellgrammite, Peter Facinelli as Maxwell Lord, and Chris Browning as Ben Krull / Reactron.
These characters are well known in the comic book world and will definitely give Supergirl/Kara Danvers (Melissa Benoist) a hard time. The thing though is they are not the last to arrive in National City. More powerful villains might come and terrorize Kara's world.
David Harewood's Hank Henshaw is on the good side for now. However, the actor hinted his character might not stay on that side as the season progresses. When asked by Comicbook.com if Henshaw will turn into Cyborg Superman just like in the comics, he said there is a possibility.
"I can't reveal it. Possibly down the line. There's some great stuff coming up," Harewood told the interviewer.
In the comics, Cyborg Superman is a persona assumed by Hank Henshaw and Zor-El. In Henshaw's case, he turned himself into a robotic version of the Man of Steel after learning that Superman is to blame for the death of his wife and colleague during an experiment in space.
Before his body completely disintegrated, he was able to save his consciousness and worked on it using NASA equipment. He used Clark Kent's birthing matrix to create a body identical to Superman.
In the same interview, Harewood also teased there are more aliens that will keep Supergirl busy.
"It's interesting. You find out how big the mythology is between Marvel and DC," he said.
"I grew up reading a lot of DC stuff but I think my first memories are of Marvel stuff. For DC, I can't say characters. We have a lot now. In the first three episodes, we have Reactron, there's an alien bunch we have to take on, we get Red Tornado. There's a lot more to come."
"Supergirl" will debut on Oct. 26. Other part of "Supergirl" TV series cast are Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant, Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers, and Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen.
