BRANDON ROUTH CAST AS THE ATOM IN SEASON 3 OF ARROW ON THE CW

BRANDON ROUTH

 

TV LINE is reporting that Brandon Routh has been cast as DC Comics Superhero, "The Atom" aka Ray Palmer in Season 3 of the CW's hit TV show, Arrow (read the article here).

THE ATOM

 

Ray Palmer or "The Atom" is a character that can alter his body mass and other objects to shrink to the size of an atom.

 

Brandon may be best known for playing Clark Kent/Superman in Superman Returns in 2006. He has also guest starred in Chuck and in other series like, Partners and Enlisted.

 

I've always liked Brandon Routh. I thought he was great in Superman Returns even though the plotline left a lot to be desired.

 

On Chuck he may have done his best work to date going from good "agent Shaw" to rogue "agent Shaw" who wanted to destroy Chuck and Sarah. It's tough to make someone who is tailor-made for the "good-guy" role into a bad guy but Chuck pulled it off.

 

I think Brandon will be an excellent addition to Arrow.
