DC's Legends of Tomorrow Premiere Date and New Trailer

We're rounding up all the information we can find on this exciting upcoming addition to the Arrowverse (that's a word, right?) in one place for you.

DC's Legends of Tomorrow Premiere Date

Legends of Tomorrow will premiere on Thursday, January 21st at 8 pm. We've heard conflicting reports that Legends of Tomorrow has a 13 or 15 episode order. We also initially thought that Legendswould air during the midseason breaks for Arrowand The Flash, but that late January premiere date seems to conflict with that bit of speculation.

You can probably consider this year's Flashand Arrowcrossover event to be the Legends of Tomorrow pilot. We have all the details on that right here.

Here's everything else we know...

DC's Legends of Tomorrow Story

Here's the official synopsis of DC's Legends of Tomorrow:

"When heroes alone are not enough ... the world needs legends. Having seen the future, one he will desperately try to prevent from happening, time-traveling rogue Rip Hunter is tasked with assembling a disparate group of both heroes and villains to confront an unstoppable threat — one in which not only is the planet at stake, but all of time itself. Can this ragtag team defeat an immortal threat unlike anything they have ever known?" 

Executive producer Greg Berlanti is likening the tone of the show to some important cinematic touchstones. "I compare the shows to old Westerns; we have a lot of lone gunmen and sheriffs in town, and this one is very much an ode to things like The Magnificent Seven or those great heist pics like Ocean’s Eleven where you get all of those colors at the same time, and a true ensemble, and that was the fun of it...you want that Rat Pack-y kind of vibe of all this crew hanging out, as disparate and as different as they are.”
