The Flash Season 3: 8 Ways Flashpoint Will Change The Show
6. Julian Dorn Will Exist
One of the most exciting additions to The Flash (or any show, really) this off-season is that of Tom Felton to the cast as a series regular. The actor, best known for his work in Rise of the Planet of the Apes - he also had a small part in those little Harry Potter movies, apparently - will be taking on the role of Julian Dorn, who works alongside Barry at the CCPD.
He'll be something of a rival to Barry, and suspects him of hiding a secret - all while keeping a few of his own. What's perhaps most interesting is that Dorn is a new character who exists because of Flashpoint, rather than a character changed by it. At the same time, however, his billing as a regular suggests he'll be sticking around long beyond the resolution to the paradox - so how does that work?
The main theory, and a likely one right now, is that he's Doctor Alchemy: one of the two Big Bads of the year. Funnily enough, that character's powers involve the Philosopher's Stone. Flashpoint brings the Harry Potter universe into the DC one - confirmed!
