Fans of DC’s Stargirl will see more of Joel McHale during the series’ upcoming third season. The actor has been promoted to a series regular on the DC superhero series. McHale revealed the promotion on a recent appearance on The Ellen Degeneres Show with Arsenio Hall guest-hosting the daytime series.
Per Deadline, McHale said the following about the promotion on The CW series:
“I’m very happy to be a part of the show, so thank you Geoff Johns who invented it.”
McHale has appeared on several episodes of DC’s Stargirl as a recurring guest star. He plays Sylvester Pemberton/Starman, a member of the original Justice Society of America and the previous owner of Stargirl’s Cosmic Staff.
Season two of DC’s Stargirl is currently airing on Tuesday nights. Season three will launch at a later date.
What do you think? Are you excited to see more of McHale on DC’s Stargirl on The CW?
I wonder when we’ll get to see the original Starman (named Ted Knight; no relation) in his beautiful all-red costume, the WWII-era hero who preceded Sylvester Pemberton, who was then known as Star-Spangled Kid and is thus actually younger than Stripesy. (McHale and Luke Wilson are the same age.) I believe Knight was mentioned last season, so it’s not out of the question.
Yes, I like this show!
This is really good show. Never miss it and am always pleased at the use of the JSA characters in flashbacks. Fresh setting, unusual slant to the story…and Luke Wilson is simply outstanding playing an aw-shucks ordinary guy whose backstory is rooted in super-lore.
Great show!
Look forward new episodes every week Tuesday night drama enjoy it and love it. Never missed any episode of it. Love this show.
