“Before Nate’s father was Tom Wilson, our notion of the Big Bad was always a military guy who works for the Pentagon who is going to torture (magical) creatures and turn them into super soldiers — whatever the stock superhero plot is,” Legends of Tomorrow showrunner Phil Klemmer tells TVLine. “But when we saw Tom Wilson in action and got to know him as a person, immediately our plans were dashed. We were like, ‘He can’t just be the bad guy. There’s something deeply lovable about this human being.’”
