Gideon in “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”

Amy Pemberton stars in The CW series “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” as Gideon, the Waverider’s cheeky Artificial Intelligence and super-computer. Over the years Gideon has become much more than a navigation tool to the team – she’s a bonafide Legend. And in this season, not just in spirit. Human Gideon is joining the team ready to finally get in on the action. As a computer, Gideon is used to knowing everything about everything but as a human, she will quickly learn that theory is different from practice.
