The Arrowverse has cast Osric Chau as Ryan Choi a.k.a. The Atom for their upcoming adaptation of Crisis on Infinite Earths. Based on Marv Wolfman's seminal 1985 comic book storyline, the five-hour event will see the heroes of Arrow, The Flash, and Supergirl once again unite, this time to combat the multiverse-destroying threat of The Anti-Monitor.
After sitting out the Elseworlds storyline last year, the cast of Legends of Tomorrow will be an integral part this time around. The newest addition to the Arrowverse - Ruby Rose's Batwoman - will also return to play a role. For the first time ever, the cast of fellow DC show, Black Lightning, will also feature - after previously occupying its own separate corner of The CW universe. They will be joined by a whole host of blasts from various DC adaptations past, with Smallville's Tom Welling and Erica Durance confirmed to be reprising their roles of Clark Kent and Lois Lane, respectively. Kevin Conroy - who voiced the animated Batman - will star as an aged Bruce Wayne. 1966's Batman actor Burt Ward has also been confirmed. Brandon Routh will pull double duty - continuing his regular role as Ray Palmer (a.k.a. The Atom) and once again donning the famous red cape as the Kingdom Come version of Superman.
According to EW, the epic saga will also introduce another potential Atom into the fold. The outlet has reported that popular comic book character, Ryan Coi, will also appear, and will be played by Chau. Described as a normal guy who comes to learn that he has a pivotol role to play in the coming crisis, the Ivy Town University professor-turned-superhero will feature in at least one episode.
