Caity Lotz

Caity Lotz didn't plan on being a superhero; her first language was movement. A trained dancer from San Diego, she toured with major pop acts and even won a world championship with the dance company Culture Shock. That physical precision became her secret weapon when she transitioned to acting, landing roles in shows like 'Mad Men.' Her big break was brutal: playing the murdered sister in the horror film 'The Pact,' a role that required her to contort her body in terrifying ways. But it was the Arrowverse that made her a cult figure. Initially introduced as the doomed Black Canary, Sara Lance, she was brought back to life—repeatedly—to become the leader of the Legends of Tomorrow. Lotz performed most of her own stunts, her dancer's discipline making her fight scenes uniquely fluid and convincing. She became the emotional anchor of the superhero franchise's most eccentric team, guiding a time-traveling ship of misfits with a blend of weary wisdom and lethal grace.
