Warner Bros. TV and
CBS have released a initial look at actor Iddo Goldberg as Red Tornado on the
upcoming live-action Supergirl TV series.
For the show, Red Tornado is described as being "most advanced android the world has ever seen.
Designed by scientist T.O. Morrow for the U.S. Army as the ultimate superweapon,
he soon becomes sentient, posing a grave danger to National City, including the
people Supergirl cares about most."
Supergirl is an action-adventure drama scheduled to
premiere on October 26. Based on the DC Comics character Kara Zor-El,
Superman’s (Kal-El) cousin who, after 12 years of keeping her powers a secret
on Earth, decides to finally embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero
she was always meant to be. Twelve-year-old Kara escaped the doomed planet
Krypton with her parents’ help at the same time as the infant Kal-El. Protected
and raised on Earth by her foster family, the Danvers, Kara grew up in the
shadow of her foster sister, Alex, and learned to conceal the phenomenal powers
she shares with her famous cousin in order to keep her identity a secret. Years
later, at 24, Kara lives in National City assisting media mogul and fierce
taskmaster Cat Grant. She works alongside her friend and IT technician Winn
Schott and famous photographer James Olsen, who Grant just hired away from the Daily Planet to
serve as her new art director. However, Kara’s days of keeping her talents a
secret are over when Hank Henshaw, head of a super-secret agency where her sister
also works, enlists her to help them protect the citizens of National City from
sinister threats. Though Kara will need to find a way to manage her newfound
empowerment with her very human relationships, her heart soars as she takes to
the skies as Supergirl to fight crime.
