“That’s the big mythology of the season,” executive producer Marc Guggenheim told EW.com. “What makes Mallus cool at this stage of everyone’s viewing experience is that right now he is just a name and is this whisper.”
As it turns out Mallus is dead, though characters don’t always stay dead in the Arrowverse.
Season three of Legends has revolved around the Waverider crew fixing anachronisms in time. Apparently, interacting with themselves in the season two finale broke time.
Noble’s ability to effortlessly go from charming to menacing is well-known from his work on Fringe and Sleepy Hollow.
