You could always have Hawkgirl without Hawkman, but the two are so much better together. CW's upcoming team-up series, DC's Legends of Tomorrow, has cast Falk Hentschel as Carter Hall aka Hawkman. Hentschel had a small role in Marvel's Agents of SHIELD, and he had a recurring part in the recently-cancelled CBS series, Reckless.
Hawkman will debut in the Arrow and The Flash crossover episodes that will be a setup for the new time-hopping team, before moving on to DC's Legends of Tomorrow fully. Carter Hall is the latest reincarnation of an Egyptian Prince who is fated to reincarnate throughout time along with his soulmate, Kendra Saunders, who will be played by the previously-cast Ciara Renee. Like her, Hawkman is able to tap into the powers of the Hawk God, Horus.
DC's Legends of Tomorrow follows a team of heroes and villain brought together by time traveler Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) to stop the threat of the villainous Vandal Savage: Brandon Routh (Ray Palmer/The Atom), Caity Lotz (Sara Lance/White Canary), Wentworth Miller (Leonard Snart/Captain Cold), Dominic Purcell (Mick Rory, Heat Wave), Victor Garber (Martin Stein/Firestorm), and Franz Drameh (Jay Jackson) round out the cast.
