Kevin Sorbo joins Supergirl as mystery villain

February 3, 2017 by Gary Collinson

TV Line is reporting that Hercules: The Legendary Journeys star Kevin Sorbo has signed on for a recurring role in season two of Supergirl, where he’ll portray a mystery villain.

“Since his days as Hercules, Kevin Sorbo has brought such a strong presence to the screen and we couldn’t be more excited to have him join us on Supergirl,” said executive producer Andrew Kreisberg.

Sorbo’s casting follows on from the news that Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman star Teri Hatcher has become the latest DC veteran to join the cast, and will also be playing a major new villain.
