Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Ian Gomez (Cougar Town) has signed on to play the DC character Snapper Carr in the upcoming second season of Supergirl.
The show’s incarnation of the character is described as “a headstrong, sharp-witted newsman, hired by Cat Grant (Calista Flockhart) to be the editor-in-chief of CatCo Magazine. Snapper’s commitment to hard-hitting journalism pushes CatCo reporters to dig deeper in the pursuit of excellence. He’s a man who tells people what he thinks of them, and his no-holds barred approach pushes Kara (Melissa Benoist) in unexpected ways.”
Lucas ‘Snapper’ Carr was created by Gardner Fox and Mike Sekowsky and made his first appearance in The Brave and the Bold in 1960, before going on to become a supporting character to the Justice League of America team.
Supergirl is set to return for its second season on its new home at The CW on October 10th.
