Actor Jeremy Jordan is the latest addition to the ever expanding cast of the upcoming "Supergirl" TV series from CBS.

The Wrap reports that Jordan has been cast in the role of Winslow "Winn" Schott, a tech genius and superstar IT whiz who also, in comic book lore, becomes the villain known as Toyman.

Jordan has previously starred on Broadway in such shows as "Newsies" and "Bonnie and Clyde." He is also known for his roles on the NBC series "Smash" and the movie "The Last Five Years" in which he stars opposite actress Anna Kendrick.

Other "Supergirl" cast members include Melissa Benoist in the lead role of Supergirl/Kara, Laura Benanti as Kara's birth mother Alura Zor-El, Mehcad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen, Chyler Leigh as Alexandra "Alex" Danvers, David Harewood as the villainous Hank Henshaw, and Calista Flockhart as Catherine "Cat" Grant.

The series will also feature guest-starring roles from former Superman and Supergirl actors Dean Cain and Helen Slater.

"Supergirl" will focus on Kara Zor-El who, born on the planet Krypton, escaped amid its destruction years ago. And since arriving on Earth, she's been hiding the powers she shares with her famous cousin. But now at age 24, she decides to embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be.

The series will be executively-produced & written by "Arrow" and "Flash" executive producer Greg Berlanti and "New Normal's" Ali Adler along with Sarah Schechter.

"Supergirl" will be the fifth based on a DC Comics character currently airing on television including "Gotham" (FOX), "The Flash" (CW Network), "Arrow" (CW Network), and "Constantine" (NBC).
