Legends of Tomorrow season 3 episode 3 preview: Tala Ashe arrives as Zari

When Legends of Tomorrow season 3 episode 3 airs on The CW next week, you’re going to be in for a heck of an hour. Tala Ashe will be making her big debut as Zari, the Muslim “hactivist” from the future who could bring a completely new dimension to the team. She’s going to be a huge part of this season, and with that we’re excited to see how she is formulated into the story and the rest of the team.

Below, you can get a few more news on the arrival of Zari, and some of what she will bring to the table almost right away.

Legends of Tomorrow season 3 episode 3 synopsis – “When Sara (Caity Lotz) receives a distress call from their “befriended” agent at the Time Bureau, she learns that they have been tasked with going to the future to capture a rogue time traveler. Unfortunately, the Legends make things worse by trying to protect an outlaw named Zari (Tala Ashe), to hopefully lure in the time travelling assassin. Meanwhile, Stein (Victor Garber) tries to diagnose Amaya’s (Maisie Richardson-Sellers) condition, but Nate (Nick Zano) discovers an unusual treatment that Amaya begrudgingly agrees to. Brandon Routh, Dominic Purcell and Franz Drameh also star. Mairzee Almas directed the episode written by James Eagan & Ray Utarnachitt (#303). Original airdate 10/24/2017.”

There’s a lot of content to get into here when it comes to this episode, but let’s start with this: Can anyone out there be altogether surprised by the fact that Zari ends up being protected thanks to some more Legends misadventures? We do appreciate the fact that the show seems to be leaning even more into the concept of the bumbling heroes this season, that the Legends often get the job done even if they only occasionally do so in a way that keeps them out of trouble in the process.

Meanwhile, there is obviously a reason to worry about Amaya, but we also have more concerns over Stein given the reports out there that Garber may exit the show at the end of the season.

The promo below gives you a little bit more insight into what Zari is going to bring to the table on Legends of Tomorrow season 3 episode 3, and based on everything we’re seeing it looks to be pretty darn awesome.
