If Legends of Tomorrow season 8 happens, Booster Gold will don his iconic costume, according to showrunner Phil Klemmer.
Following his introduction in the season 7 finale, Legends of Tomorrow season 8 will give Booster Gold his iconic costume, according to the showrunner. The Arrowverse recently added another major DC Comics hero, this time on Legends of Tomorrow. After massive speculation following his casting announcement, Scrubs' Donald Faison was revealed to be none other than Michael Jon Carter, a.k.a. Booster Gold.
While it took several years for the Arrowverse to finally get access to the Booster Gold character, it remains to be seen if fans will get to see him again next year. Currently, Legends of Tomorrow is one of several shows that The CW has yet to renew. Due to the WarnerMedia/Paramount-owned network being up for sales, it has put a delay on renewals and cancelations for The CW.
"Even though many of our fans have already guessed the identity of Donald Faison's character , we wanted to hold off on the name Booster Gold until the end of the episode. That was one reason to hold back on the suit. The other was logistics. It takes forever to design such a costume, and we were in the final Season 7 sprint when Donald joined the show. Finally, if and when Booster does get his costume in Season 8, it seems worthy of an entire story or perhaps stories.
While it's understandable that viewers probably wanted to see Booster Gold in his iconic uniform, it also makes sense why they're waiting with it. From a creative standpoint, it seems like the Arrowverse's iteration of the futuristic hero has only just begun his adventure. Looking at it from a production POV, it would make no sense to do a costume if they don't even know if Legends of Tomorrow season 8 will be a thing.
There are so far very few details of what Legends of Tomorrow season 8 would look like if it were to happen. The finale saw the Legends get arrested by the Time police after their many timeline violations, with that organization likely serving as their next big bad. Aside from Faison's Booster Gold being part of it, Legends of Tomorrow season 8 will have one less familiar face as Nick Zano's Nate Heywood has exited the Arrowverse drama.
