Meet Supergirl's Red Tornado and General Lane

Supergirl is filling out its cast of characters with two new additions.

The new superhero drama has added Iddo Goldberg as Red Tornado, Variety reports. An advanced android developed as a weapon, he quickly becomes a danger to National City that Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) has to stop.

In the comics, Red Tornado gains control over his programming as a weapon and eventually becomes a hero. On Supergirl, he will have a particular connection with General Lane, the overprotective father of Lois and Lucy Lane. The military man will be played by 24's Glenn Morshower.
