The Flash season 6 finale will feature the official debut of this major villain
Efrat Dor has revealed that her character becomes the fully-fledged Mirror Master in The Flash season 6 finale.
In an interview with EW, actress Efrat Dor has revealed what fans can expect from her character Eva McCulloch in The Flash season 6’s finale.
The finale was supposed to be the 22nd episode of the season, but now the 19th episode, “Success is Assured”, will serve as the impromptu finale instead. This is down to the fact that production on the show had to be shut down due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
The back half of The Flash season 6 focused on Eva gathering all the tools necessary to complete her task of returning to the real world using “phantoms” of Iris West-Allen (Candice Patton), Kamilla (Victoria Park) and Captain Singh (Patrick Sabongui) to achieve her goals of liberation.

She is hellbent on getting revenge on her husband, Joseph Carver (Eric Nenninger) for the misuse of her inventions and technology as the acting CEO of McCulloch Technologies is a member of the organization Black Hole, and imprisoned her in the Mirrorverse.
Towards the climax of the previous episode (“Pay The Piper”), Eva woke up from stasis in a machine chamber in McCulloch Technologies and it looks like she’s about to execute her plan.
Dor, who portrays Eva, spoke about what we can expect when her character finally confronts her husband Joseph:
"“He’s definitely not expecting her… I never felt like she’s evil. But when she goes after her husband, I could really connect to those emotions, and that was fun just being really, really angry.”"
To top it all off, it seems that Eva will be sporting an iconic look for her official debut as Mirror Master. Dor revealed:
"“You get to see her in the full Mirror Master suit, which has been so deeply thought out. So much work and heart was put into that suit. Hopefully, it satisfies the fans seeing Eva finally coming into her full ‘Mirror Mastress’ look. They’re going to see a lot of beautifully shot action stuff with her in that suit.”"
With Iris, Kamilla and Captain Singh trapped in the Mirrorverse, we can only guess whether they all return back to the real world. Acknowledging that there were meant to be three episodes of the current season left, Dor revealed some more interesting tidbits we could possibly look forward to next in season 7. She said:
"“[The] moment Eva leaves the mirror, [showrunner] Eric [Wallace] just wrote crazy action-packed episodes with really shocking cliffhangers. And they’re alone after another bombarding you like, ‘Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!’ So we got lucky that episode 19 is the first [of those episodes]; there are a lot of things that are happening in that episode.”"
It seems we may not see the last of Eva as Mirror Master either as Dor also revealed that the finale is not her last episode.
We are not sure what Eva has in store for Central City or how Black Hole works into her plans. It also hasn’t been revealed what she has planned for Dr Ramsey Rosso/Bloodwork (Sendhil Ramamurthy). Whatever it is, viewers will just have to wait and see.
So far, this has been a great interpretation of Mirror Master. Eva is the second Arrowverse iteration after Sam Scudder (Grey Damon) – the rival of Captain Cold – showed up during the third season.
The Flash season 6 finale airs on Tuesday, May 12, at 8:00 p.m. ET. Are you looking forward to seeing how Eva’s revenge escalates? Let us know in the comments below!
