We know Barry Allen and friends are already going to have their hands full when The Flash returns for its fifth season, and now it looks like they're going to have to contend with yet another threat.
Deadline reports that 25-year old Canadian actress Kiana Madeira (Sacred Lies, Taken, Dark Matter) will play a gender-swapped incarnation of the villainous Spin.
In the comics, Spin was a metahuman with the power to manipulate emotions, which he used to amp up the public's anxiety and "spin" it into what he wanted.

The Flash season 5 premieres on Tuesday, October 9, 2018.
