The Flash Promo Features Danielle Panabaker
By Steve Lam
In the latest promo video for The CW’s The Flash, Danielle Panabaker briefly introduces her character, Caitlin Snow — the future Killer Frost.
Panabaker made her DC universe debut when she guest starred in The Flash‘s backdoor pilot on Arrow. There have been several characters taking the name of Killer Frost, but the Caitlin Snow version of Killer Frost was introduced during September 2013’s Villains Month in DC’s Forever Evil storyline for The New 52. During a S.T.A.R. Labs raid by H.I.V.E. agents, Snow, a scientist, is accidentally transformed into a heat vampire from the coolant system of an experimental thermodynamic engine. She initially seeks out Firestorm because the heat from his blasts temporarily heal her. It’ll be interesting to see how Panabaker develops the character alongside Robbie Amell’s Ronnie Raymond, aka Firestorm. What we do know, so far, is that The Flash will have Snow engaged to Raymond at the beginning of the show.
The CW will premiere The Flash on Tuesday, October 7, 2014 at 8:00PM EST.
