The Legends of Tomorrow version of Barnum will be the villain of his episode, but he’s not an evildoer as much as a man who wants to put on a good show for a big audience.
Billy Zane has signed on to play P.T. Barnum, who is best known as the co-founder of the legendary Barnum & Bailey Circus.
Zane will appear in one episode of Season 3.
While Barnum is remembered as a conman who claimed that “There’s a sucker born every minute,” Legends of Tomorrow will put a different spin on the story we all think we know.
