The erstwhile Man of Steel is joining the CW hit’s third season in the recurring role of Ray Palmer, aka DC superhero The Atom, TVLine has learned exclusively.

This is some very cool casting. Not only for bringing Ray Palmer into the series, but I think getting Brandon Routh to portray another DC superhero is a cool idea, and think he’ll be great for the role.
