Casting Call For ARROW/THE FLASH Spinoff Possibly Reveals Those Three New Heroes

We already know that the mysterious Arrow/The Flash spinoff will feature three more heroes who will join The Atom, The Canary, Captain Cold, and Dr. Martin Stein, but now descriptions of each of them may reveal their identities. Booster Gold, Fury, and more are among the possibilities...

Thanks to TV Line, we now have the descriptions of three "mystery" characters who will join Brandon Routh (The Atom), Caity Lotz (The Canary), Wentworth Miller (Captain Cold), and Victor Garber (Dr. Martin Stein) in the untitled Arrow/The Flash crossover which has been described as a team-up show of sorts. There's no word on the identity of these characters, but the site has put forward a few educated guesses based on the descriptions offered. Share your theories below. 

Firstly, there's "The Traveler", and he's described as a "Han Solo-esque rogue who gets by with his charm, this hero hails from the future, and has journeyed back in time on a secret mission. His razor-sharp wit hides the pain of a man who has lived through serious conflict. He also harbors many secrets, always leaving both his teammates and the audience unsure of his true allegiances." They theorise that this is Rip Hunter, a "Time Hunter" who only uses that as an alias to stop his enemies from travelling back in time and killing him as an infant. Could he be the one who brings back Sara Lance by picking her out of an earlier point in time? They also suggest that Booster Gold is possible, but that wouldn't make sense when it's been said that these new additions have never been seen in live-action before. Even so, "The Traveler" definitely sounds similar to Booster.

"Female Warrior" is said to be a "twentysomething Latina is pretty but unassuming, book smart and socially awkward by day. But by night, when she hears the cry of battle, her fury is ignited and she becomes a fierce warrior — so much so, that sometimes she can become a threat to others." This they believe might be some sort of cross between Helena Kosmatos/Fury and Yolanda Montez, the second Wildcat who adopted that title from her godfather, Ted Grant. They throw in a couple of other suggestions too, mentioning Pantha and Tarantula. Finally, there's "Mystery Hero", "An African-American male in his twenties will fill the role of a regular, street smart guy who unexpectedly gains powers, and then, as part of the team, regularly quips about the insanity of the situations." Static is the character suggested here, but Black Lighting and Black Vulcan are also believed to be possibilities. 

None of these are confirmed remember, they're just theories based on the descriptions. With any luck, we'll hear a lot more soon. As we said, share your thoughts on these in the usual place!

Got to be Booster Gold and Static Shock. Don't know about the female hero but the first description screams Booster Gold.

Booster Gold needs to have his solo film in the DCU. A buddy film with Blue Beetle. Hell, I even made a title card.

I think the one girl, sounds like Fire, but she doesn't like to travel without her friend Ice.

If it's Static, I'd like to see Leon Thomas get the job. I don't think its Black Lightning, because he has two girls. Black Vulcan would be cool, because that would mean the Martian Manhunter will be on the show too.

I really hope it's Booster Gold. I could also see it being Adam Strange, because he has done some time traveling. Hawkman also has traveled to the future. It will be interesting to see who it ends up being.

The female sounds more like Beaz D'Costa, aka Fire!

I always loved @Tainted87's idea of Blue Beetle and Gold messing the with the time-line. Not sure if that would be the ideal Justice League origin but it has some potential.

That sounds more like Rip Hunter. Booster was very clearly a hero.

Also, no point in bringing in Booster if you don't have Blue Beetle. Would rather seem the two shakle up in a movie with Man of Steel referencing Booster.

I was looking forward to this but those descriptions sound super dumb. And why does Captain Cold continue to be included with these heroes?

Damn, I NEED (and by need, I mean I want) Booster Gold in the DCCU.

It's not Booster. They said the three new characters will be characters that have never been seen in live action before. Plus there's this...

I've always thought "Booster Gold" sounded like a protein powder or energy drink or something
