Malese Jow Joins The Cast Of THE FLASH As New Love Interest For 'Barry Allen'
The Vampire Diaries and Star-Crossed actress Malese Jow has joined the cast of The Flash's first season as a pivotal character from the comic books who will serve as a love interest for Barry Allen in The CW series. Who is she playing? Hit the jump to find out!
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Malese Jow has joined the cast of The Flash as Linda Park. If that name rings a bell it is indeed because she's a character from the comic books. The official description for this version reveals that she is, "a quick-witted reporter for the Central City Picture News. She befriends Iris (Candice Patton) while at work and helps her navigate the fast-paced world of journalism. When she meets Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) at a local bar, the two hit it off and become quick friends." Jow will make her debut in the show's twelfth episode. In the comics, Park is introduced as Wally West's girlfriend and eventually becomes his wife. There has of course been talk of introducing Wally in The CW series, so fans of that Flash probably shouldn't worry too much as we could still see him and Park get together. What do you guys think?
