THE FLASH Casts Luc Roderique As Modern-Day FIRESTORM 'Jason Rusch'

Though we already have both halves of the fiery DC superhero (Robbie Amell and Victor Garber) cast in the CW show, KSiteTV are reporting that the third incarnation of Firestorm, Jason Rusch, will also be appearing and will be played by Supernatural actor Luc Roderique.

As it stands right now on the CW's The Flash, the plan is to eventually have Robbie Amell’s Ronnie Raymond combine with Victor Garber’s Professor Stein to make Firestorm...but we might be looking at a threesome. According to KSiteTV, Luc Roderique has also been cast as the current DC Comics incarnation of Firestorm, Jason Rusch. He's described as “a graduate student at Hudson University, he was part of Martin Stein’s research team on the F.I.R.E.S.T.O.R.M. project. In the DC comics, Jason takes over the Firestorm matrix after Ronnie Raymond’s death.”. So maybe a nasty end is in store for Raymond on the show, or they'll just take turns or something. Roderique (Godzilla, Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, Supernatural) is set to appear as Rusch in the tenth episode of The Flash which will air after the mid season break.

I am really curious how they are going to pull of this character as well as Grodd!

All three are now on Flash so I'm guessing Martin Stein dies.

Hmm, so this probably means they all share the same body or Stein kicks the bucket and it's Jason and Ronnie who combine.

I was hoping they would do something like this. This could make a good spin-off show

@Gusto You mean Mikhail Arkadin? Points for the super obscure reference, Gusto!

Also, not to be racist (which I realize is a phrase which indicates that I'm about to say something racist, but honestly, I'm not. I'm also making this better for myself, am I?), but am I the only one who wishes Jason Rusch was black?

Ignore that last statement. I did not realize that that guy was black. And I AM black.

Answer Gusto's question Ror....why are they skipping to Jason Rusch when we haven't seen Raymond and Stein's Firestorm yet?
GhostDog
GhostDog - 11/11/2014, 1:53 PM
He black??!? Must be mixed.

JoeMomma29 - 11/11/2014, 1:58 PM
LMAO! Gusto is being ignored by Ror just like how his family ignores him at the nursing home!!!!!!

Like I said, the plan is to combine Grif and Yoss to make Trollstorm..but I'm not sure how Rusch will factor in.

Sorry @Gusto, but Yoss was a troll, yeah he was a funny troll, but still.

@Desrow

yoss wasn't a troll. There are plenty of trolls on CBM, but he wasn't one of them. He just liked to screw around on here while at work.

I hope Firestorm gets a spin off. He is my favorite comicbook character.

I actually I like the combo of Ronnie and Jason from the New 52. Just as they started to get the dynamic right and the comic was getting good they canceled it. :(

Dmon - 11/11/2014, 2:15 PM
I am such a Firestorm Fan I have the comic of his first appearance.

@Sidthesloth

I thought Italian Spider-Man was your favorite since you made that cameo in his movie.

SidDaAstroSloth
SidDaAstroSloth - 11/11/2014, 2:18 PM
I would love having a copy of his first appearance!

I have a a ton of the 70s comics written by Gerry Conway.
SidDaAstroSloth

&b&y

He is a close second.

Its just the thought of an old man inside a younger man captures my interest.

plasticman - 11/11/2014, 2:21 PM
Don't worry, Gusto. Ol' Plasticman is still bouncing in and out of comics from time to time. (Like that makes a heaping bit of difference.)

Hey, whatever happened to that Selina Kyle chick that used to post stuff on here? I could never comment on her stories.

blackandyellow - 11/11/2014, 2:21 PM
LMAO Sid. That's the best comment I've read in a looooong time.

plasticman - 11/11/2014, 2:21 PM
I meant comments...but comics works too.

BTW, I am looking forward to Firestorm, no matter what version. I love this show! The more obscure characters they add the better. I look forward to eventually a Capt Atom appearance.

SidDaAstroSloth - 11/11/2014, 2:25 PM
Lol B&Y

That means alot...

Mostly means that these comment sections have really died.
