The Old School, Legally Blonde and The Royal Tenenbaums star will play Pat Dugan, a mechanic-turned-superhero who pilots his 15-foot robot invention Stripe, on Stargirl. “When I first moved to Los Angeles in 1996 and saw Bottle Rocket, I became a huge fan and admirer of Luke’s,” says creator Geoff Johns. “And I literally wrote this part for Luke, hoping that someday and somehow he’d play Pat Dugan. I only envisioned him. And now I feel like I won the lottery! Luke’s talent, humor, compassion — his presence and professionalism — and his creative collaboration, his ideas — we’re so lucky to have him alongside Brec in Stargirl." Wilson's last major TV roles were on Showtime's Roadies and HBO's Enlightened.
