The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Dominic Purcell (Blade: Trinity) has joined the cast of The Flash as the villainous Heat Wave. He'll first appear in the tenth episode, and his appearance will be alongside Wentworth Miller, the Resident Evil star who has been cast as Captain Cold. This marks the first time the duo have appeared together since playing brothers Lincoln Burrows and Michael Scofield in Prison Break. Captain Cold will make his debut in episode four, and Heat Wave will apparently also be heard from there. The site describes the character as, "a pyromaniac who finds an outlet for his obsession with fire when he teams up with Leonard Snart/Captain Cold and becomes the villain known as Heat Wave." This cast just keeps getting better and better, don't you think? Be sure to share your thoughts on this news in the usual place!

This angers me...I want Purcell as Cable in X-Force. Hopefully it's just a one-season thing. Should be great though. Miller and Purcell are great together.

the great thing about this being a tv show is well see these villians again n again and the hero can have time to build a report with them
sometimes I get tired of the first meeting all the time in the movies
Id like a sense of history

I just love how Arrow and The Flash have already built up supervillain teams!
You've got the Suicide Squad in Arrow and The Rogues in Flash.

Lord knows both groups have spin-off potential, even if only for midseason scheduling.
