Zorro's Black Whip - Cast

Cast

  • Linda Stirling as Barbara Meredith, The Black Whip and newspaper proprietrix
  • George J. Lewis as Vic Gordon, a US government agent allied with the Black Whip. In a related role, Lewis later portrayed Don Diego de la Vega/Zorro's father, Don Alejandro de la Vega in the Walt Disney television series Zorro
  • Lucien Littlefield as "Tenpoint" Jackson, the comic relief newspaper typesetter working with Barbara Meredith
  • Francis McDonald as Dan Hammond, villainous owner of the town's Stagecoach company
  • Hal Taliaferro as Baxter, one of Hammond's henchmen
  • John Merton as Ed Harris, one of Hammond's henchmen
  • Stanley Price as Hedges, Hammond's Clerk-Henchman

The surnames of the two lead characters, Meredith and Gordon, are an in-joke referencing two earlier Republic serials. The character Nyoka the Jungle Girl and her father had the surname Meredith in Jungle Girl, but their last name was Gordon in the semi-sequel Perils of Nyoka.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    I say that male and female are cast in the same mold; except for education and habits, the difference is not great.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    But first Elpenor came, our friend Elpenor,
    Unburied, cast on the wide earth,
    Limbs that we left in the house of Circe,
    Unwept, unwrapped in sepulchre, since toils urged other.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    You have overcome yourself: but why do you show yourself to me only as the one overcome? I want to see the victor: cast roses into the abyss and say, “Here is my thanks to the monster, because it didn’t know how to swallow me!”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
