'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' makers missed the chance to bring back young Snart and Rory in 'Slay Anything'

In the latest episode, the team took a trip back in time to Rory's high school reunion and another trip even further back, all the way to Rory's prom night

Spoiler alert for 'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' Season 5 Episode 4 'Slay Anything'

Leonard Snart aka Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) and Mick Rory aka Heat Wave (Dominic Purcell) were one of our favorite duos since their introduction in 'The Flash'. Sure, Snart's death at the end of 'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' Season 1 separated them but alternate versions of the anti-hero have popped up a number of times since then and the latest episode would have been a great chance to bring him back again, even if only briefly.

In the latest 'Legends' episode, 'Slay Anything', the team took a trip back in time to Rory's high school reunion and another trip even further back, all the way to Rory's prom night. This was a great chance for the show to bring Snart back and showcase the Snart-Rory duo back in their heyday but unfortunately, that didn't pan out. 

Turns out, we're not the only ones who thought Young Snart and Rory would have been a great idea. According to ComicBook, 'Legends' executive producer Phil Klemmer said ahead of the episode's airing, "You know the one I really, we kind of whiffed on, we do this, the next episode up is an '80s slasher prom story, with Rory. And the thing we really messed up, I really would have loved Young Snart and Rory fresh out of juvie. That would have been a great story, but we whiffed it."

Klemmer also revealed that the writers still talk about bringing Hawkman (Falk Hentschel) and Hawkwoman (Ciara Renée) back to the show. The characters haven't been seen since they exited the show at the end of Season 1 but apparently their return isn't entirely out of the realm of possibility.

"I mean we talk about them an awful lot in the room," Klemmer admitted without offering any specific details. He added that he would love to see more from the younger version of Martin Stein played by Graeme McComb, who appeared in Season 1 and 3.

'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' Season 5 airs new episodes every Tuesday at 9/8c on The CW.
