‘Legends Of Tomorrow’ Season 3 Episode To Feature A Young Barack Obama

“Legends of Tomorrow” is putting the spotlight on another U.S. president.

According to TVLine, the CW series is making an upcoming Season 3 episode that revolves around a teenage version of President Barack Obama. The installment is set in the late ‘70s when Obama was still a student at Occidental College in Los Angeles.

Casting is currently underway for an actor that will play the future 44th president of the United States. The episode, which is being written by Keto Shimizu and James Eagan, begins filming in early February and is set to air in April.

As of the moment, the show has already featured two U.S. presidents. Lyndon B. Johnson (Peter Hall) appeared in Season 3, episode 7, titled “Welcome to the Jungle,” while George Washington (Randall Batinkoff) was featured in Season 2, episode 11, titled “Turncoat.”

Unlike the other Arrowverse shows, “Legends of Tomorrow” is still on hiatus. Season 3 of the superhero team-up show is set to return with episode 10, titled “Daddy Darkhest,” on Monday, Feb. 12 at 8 p.m. EST on The CW.

The network has yet to release the synopsis for the episode but the trailer for the hour shows guest character John Constantine (Matt Ryan) performing what appears to be a very dangerous exorcism. But apart from the exorcism, executive producer Phil Klemmer told The Hollywood Reporter last October that Constantine’s appearance in the episode involves a lot of other exciting things.

“Constantine’s appearance in episode 10 will involve the following: a revisiting of ‘Arrow’ Season 4 and the events following that season’s finale episode; a confrontation with this season’s Big Bad on ‘Legends’; some hot sex; and Damien Darhk (Neil McDonough), because how can you do an episode about dark magic and not have Damien Darhk?” Klemmer said. “More than anything, the episode promises to be scary as you know what — tonally it’s ‘The Exorcist’ meets ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.’ Demonic possession in a mental institution — what’s not to love?”
