TITANS Will Reportedly Feature Three DC Comics Heroes We Hadn't Been Made Aware Of Before
On the heels of last night's Dick Grayson/Robin casting news, a new report indicates that the Titans DC TV show is still seeking actors to play a trio of very recognizable DC heroes. More past the jump...
Last night, we found out that Pirates of The Caribbean actor Brenton Thwaites had been cast as Dick Grayson/Robin/Nightwing in the upcoming Titans TV series. We had been led to believe that we only had Beast Boy to go, but now That Hashtag Show is reporting that Hawk, Dove and Detective Amy Rohrbach will also be joining the fray.
In the comics, Hawk and Dove are a pair of crime-fighting vigilantes who have gone through several different incarnations over the years. Here are the breakdowns for the small-screen versions:
MOLLY Recurring Female (25-30) [Open ethnicity] Graceful master fighting machine. She straddles the world of being a thrill-seeking and do-gooding vigilante, along with being her crime fighting partner’s emotional anchor and caregiver. She loves him, but fears what he’s become…RECURRING GUEST STAR WITH SERIES REGULAR OPTION.
Apparently, DC is interested in Alan Ritchson (Smallville) and Rebecca Rittenhouse (The Mindy Project) for Hawk and Dove, respectively.
Meanwhile, the inclusion of Amy Rohrbach pretty much confirms that Grayson's arc will draw inspiration from the 90’s Nightwing series in which he was a member of the corrupt Bludhavan PD. In the comics, Rohrbach was one of the only clean cops working in Bludhaven and eventually became Nightwing's trusted ally.
Here's the casting breakdown for her character:
DET AMY ROHRBACH Supporting Female (25-35) [OPEN] She is the detective alongside Dick Grayson who knows more than she lets on. Pretty, has tattoos.
