Jessica Jones actress Susie Abromeit has been cast as the mother of Ray Palmer in season 3 of Legends of Tomorrow. Ray Palmer/The Atom (Brandon Routh) has been a regular on the series since the show?s first season. The character has been a part of the Arrowverse since he was introduced in the season 3 premiere of Arrow, as a billionaire inventor who takes over Oliver?s company, Queen Consolidated, and renames it Palmer Technologies.
After the death of his fiancée, Ray became the shrinking superhero the Atom, and was eventually recruited by Rip Hunter to join the Legends. As a constant member of the team, Ray continues to assist his fellow time-travelers both as a superhero and as a scientist.
TVLine reports that an upcoming episode of Legends of Tomorrow will introduce viewers to Ray?s mother, played by Susie Abromeit, an actress most notable for her role as Pam, Hogarth?s girlfriend on the Netflix series, Marvel?s Jessica Jones.
