10 Biggest Movie And TV News This Week (July 19)

7. Wentworth Miller Joins The Flash As Captain Cold

Captain Cold It looks like The Flash is going to follow Arrow's pattern of introducing a slew of comic book characters week by week. We already know that the likes of Reverse Flash, Killer Frost, Vibe, Weather Wizard, the Pied Piper, Trickster, and Firestorm will be making the trip to Central City, and now have another exciting name to add to that list. No Flash series would be complete without one of the scarlet speedster's most iconic bad guys: Captain Cold; and it looks like the producers agree. According to TV Guide, Prison Break star Wentworth Miller has joined the cast as Leonard Snart, a.k.a. Captain Cold, and will likely resemble the New 52 incarnation of the super villain. But wait, that's not all! According to producer Greg Berlanti, Snart's appearance will also lay the groundwork for the Rogues to appear. The Rogues are a group of Flash's enemies who decide to team up and take on the Fastest Man Alive en masse. Apparently the show is not going to shy away from mining the vast array of characters in the source material, and are hitting the ground running for the first eight or nine episodes.
