‘Doctor Who’ alum Jovian Wade will portray Victor Stone/Cyborg, while ‘Orange is the New Black”s Diane Guerrero will depict Crazy Jane. Since this character’s face isn’t obscured, it appears that she will be the only actor cast for ‘Titans’ that will carry over into ‘Doom Patrol’. The Chief, but first, on ‘Titans’ that role will be played by Bruno Bichir.Īpril Bowlby is playing Elasti-Woman on both shows. Similarly, Timothy Dalton has been cast to play Niles Caulder, a.k.a. Jake Michaels was cast to play Robot Man on ‘Titans’, but on ‘Doom Patrol’ Riley Shanahan will wear the suit of the character, while the voice will be provided by Brendan Fraser who, like Bomer, will also appear in the flesh in flashbacks. This is similar to the approach the show will take with Robot Man. Bomer will provide the character’s voice and will appear as his alter ego Larry Trainor in flashbacks. Negative Man has already been photographed on the set of ‘Doom Patrol’ but it appears that under those bandages is Matthew Zuk (‘Rectify’, ‘The 5th Wave’). Dwain Murphy was cast to portray the character on ‘Titans’. The latest switcheroo is that Matt Bomer has taken on the role of Negative Man. In the “Young Animal” storyline, Larry is transported to The Negative Space (which might have been seen in Doom Patrol season 3) and separated from the Negative Spirit and through a trial, it is decided that Larry may choose to continue being merged with the Negative Spirit however, every time the Negative Spirit is released Larry would experience a normal human lifecycle so that he could experience life without the Spirit.The Doom Patrol will be appearing on DC Universe’s ‘Titans’ series, but it seems that one by one, the parts are being recast for the ‘Doom Patrol’ spin-off which is currently shooting in Atlanta and is expected to arrive on DC Universe next year at some time. In having Larry and the Negative Spirit travel to the homeworld of the Spirit, Doom Patrol has hinted at how the relationship between the Negative Spirit and Larry is resolved in another comic continuity. However, it would likely also leave him preoccupied with what the new being meant for him, whether he was effectively the creature’s father, and how he related to issues of bodily autonomy and consent over the issue. This possible take on the Aenigma Regis storyline would have a similar effect on Larry in Doom Patrol as he would still be the same character and would maintain his crucial connection to Rita and his budding relationship with Dorothy. Going forward, many of the Guardians find themselves in parental roles to the baby and then adolescent Groot, with behind-the-scenes information confirming that Baby Groot at one point refers to Rocket as his father. The creation of Baby Groot did not lose the concept of the original character, but it did of course change the dynamics between Groot and the rest of the team. This is effectively the same ploy that Guardians of the Galaxy conducted with Baby Groot as, while Groot technically dies and propagates the new creature, it allows for the story of Baby Groot to be conducted without completely losing the original idea of Groot. By skipping the creation of Regis and having Larry gestate a baby Negative Spirit that has no previous personality, Doom Patrol can explore the storylines related to Larry and the Spirit becoming one without losing the character development that has been done for Larry as a character with a rich history. After Regis is killed by Candlemaker, Willoughby Kipling helps the egg to hatch and Regis is reborn from it retaining all of his previous memories.

This could suggest that the Doom Patrol series is creating an adaptation of the Aenigma Regis storyline in which Regis goes into space, mates with themselves, and creates an egg. This leaves Larry bereft and he starts to be sick as well as having a lump that forms on his belly and then moves around his body in a distressing way. Related: Doom Patrol: Who Are The Sisterhood of Dada (Comics Origin & History)ĭoom Patrol season 3 sees the Negative Spirit depart Larry Trainor after taking him to space. The creation of Regis effectively leads to the death of Larry as he becomes an internalized part of Regis, with Regis himself becoming angry when referred to by the name.
Doom Patrol season 2 explored this concept by introducing another comic character, the cosmonaut Valentina Vostok who had bonded with her Negative Spirit and become a new singular entity.
When the Spirit returns and wishes to combine with Larry again, it takes a different turn as he merges with both Larry and his doctor, Eleanor Poole, creating one single being that considers itself more than the sum of its parts and renames itself Regis. In the comics, the Negative Spirit is separated from Larry Trainor (Matthew Zuk/Matt Bomer) for a time and Larry is left recovering in the hospital.
