PRISON BREAK's Wentworth Miller Joining THE FLASH As 'Leonard Snart'/'Captain Cold'
It was revealed at the Television Critics Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills today that Prison Break star Wentworth Miller is set to join the cast of The Flash as the leader of The Rogues (and recent Justice League member), Captain Cold. Check it out!
This is an impressive bit of casting, and something of a surprise as Wentworth Miller appeared to be moving away from acting after his script for Stoker was met with a great deal of praise. Regardless, he seems like a perfect fit for Captain Cold (especially as the character has been portrayed as a little younger since his debut in "The New 52"), and it should be very interesting to see how The Flash goes about introducing the villain and what his long-term role in the series will be. It was also revealed during the panel that they fought hard to include a Gorilla Grodd Easter egg in the pilot and that they do hope to one day be able to bring the villain into the series, despite not having a budget anywhere near something like Dawn of the Planet of the Apes!
