After the many changes happening over with the Arrow team, and Supergirl finally getting its Superman, it looks like The Flash doesn't want to be left behind.
Just announced, The Flash gets a new series regular in Tom Felton. What's that you say? The name sounds familiar? It should! He found his star when he was cast as Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films.
He'll be playing a character called Julian Dorn, a CSI at the Central City Police Department who becomes suspicious of Barry Allen. That's all we know right now. We should note that this isn't Tom Felton first time on TV, he's also worked on Murder in the First and Full Circle. It will be interesting to see what he brings to cast especially since season three is going to deal with some major fallout from Barry's decision to save his mother.
Arrow continues to add to season 5's lineup, with the latest addition being Carly Pope as Susan Williams, a Coast City reporter who, in the comic was married to Hal Jordon's brother. That's right, we might have a Green Lantern connection in the Arrowverse! Susan Williams will be going after Oliver Queen for a big story. Carly Pope will appear in the third episode of Arrow's season 5. No telling how long she'll be staying.
And yet another recurring addition to Arrow is Tyler Ritter as Detective Malone, who replaces Captain Lance, since the last we saw of Paul Blackthorn's character was him "riding into the sunset" with Felicity's mother. However, Paul Blackthorn is still a series regular, so he's not gone for good.
What do you think of the new casting news in the Berlantiverse?
