Justice Leak Unlimited: Hellgrammite Cast For Supergirl

If your name looks and sounds like Justice League, you might want to audition for a DC Comics TV show – and that’s exactly what actor Justice Leak (Powers) apparently did.

EW reports that the actor has been cast as the Hellgrammite in an upcoming episode of Supergirl. Here’s how EW describes the character:

In the comics, Hellgrammite is actually entomologist Roderick Rose who, thanks to some experimentation, is transformed into the insect-like villain who draws his name from the actual hellgrammite bug. Hellgrammite’s comic-book powers include super-strength, improved jumping — or hopping, in this case — and can produce cocoons to imprison foes or even transform them into larvae versions of himself. Those with an aversion to bugs may not want to look too deeply into the character’s origins.

No details yet on when he will first appear. Supergirl premieres October 26 on CBS.
