The Heroes and Villains FanFest convention recently took over Chicago, providing fans of Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, Gotham, and Heroes Reborn with the ultimate fan experience. As a seasoned ScreenRant.com writer, I was there to immerse myself in the event and gather as much behind-the-scenes information and spoilers as possible. In this article, I’ll be sharing some intriguing insights about The Flash.
What’s Next for The Flash?
With no new episode until next week, I took the opportunity to ask the stars about their thoughts on the direction their characters are heading in and what’s coming up. The show recently raised the stakes by venturing into Earth-2, a parallel universe existing opposite our characters in Earth-1. Caitlin Snow and Cisco Ramone were shocked to discover that their counterparts in this alternate universe were evil. However, their portrayers, Danielle Panabaker and Carlos Valdes, were thrilled at the chance to play their villainous counterparts.
Embracing the Dark Side
Carlos Valdes described playing Earth-2 Reverb as “freeing,” while Panabaker was almost giddy talking about the fun of playing a villain. Moving forward, they warn that their characters will be very cautious of their actions as a result. Valdes revealed that “Cisco has a deep fear of the power becoming Vibe could have, [and we’ll be] covering that in upcoming episodes.” As for Caitlin Snow, Panabaker mentioned that “there are some lines that elude to [her coldness] this season.”
The Mystery of the Cage in Zoom’s Lair
If you’re wondering who was in the cage in Zoom’s lair in Earth-2, you’re not alone. In the last episode, it was revealed that Teddy Sears, in addition to playing Jay Garrick, is also the face of Zoom. Despite being quite a ways along since filming that reveal, Sears insists he has no idea who is in the cage. However, Danielle Panabaker and Carlos Valdes do!
