Entertainment Weekly reports that the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover has just gotten a small addition, with Supernatural’s Osric Chau set to appear as none other than Ryan Choi, the new version of The Atom. Much like the comics, Chau’s character will pick up the mantle from Brandon Routh’s Ray Palmer, who will be departing the main cast of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and is currently only confirmed to appear in the crossover as an older Superman.
