Titans keeps adding to its roster for the upcoming second season, as the DC Universe original series has added Michael Mosley (Ozark) as Doctor Light. The news comes from ComicBook, though it’s still unclear how prominently the new character will factor into the plot of the new season.
The villainous Doctor Light first appeared back in Justice League of America #12 back in 1962, and was a bipartite character, meaning his physical being housed both a villain (Arthur Light), and a hero, (Jacob Tremblay). He’s been a major character over the years, serving as both a foil for the Justice League, as well as a member of the Suicide Squad.
Mosley will join the previously announced newcomers Joshua Orpin as Conner Kent/Superboy, Esai Morales as Deathstroke, Chella Man as Deathstroke’s son, Jericho Wilson, Chelsea T. Zhang as Deathstroke’s daughter, Rose Wilson (aka The Ravager), Iain Glen as Bruce Wayne, Natalie Gumede as Mercy Graves and Drew Van Acker as Aqualad.
