We feel that the year 2017 is launched! The information has been coming down again and again in recent days. Today we focus on the series The Flash, whose third season will see the return of Grodd. But also an announcement about the character of Zoom!
We learn today through the voice of producer Andrew Kreisberg that episodes 13 and 14 of the third season of The Flash, broadcast on the CW, will see the reappearance of the character of Gorilla Grodd. Indeed, Barry Allen will travel to Earth-2, in the very city of the evil gorilla. But he will not be alone since we will meet Solovar, the progressive leader of a race of gorillas. He is known in the comics as an example of wisdom, and his psychic powers are great. He is respected by everyone except Grodd. We may know the reason that will push The Flash to move? Solovar will be voiced by actor Keith David, who in 2009 voiced the character of Dr. Facilier in The Princess and the Frog, among others.
That's not the only issue Barry Allen will have to worry about. The same Andrew Kreisberg has also just revealed that the character of Zoom, under the mask of Black Flash, will soon resurface! And not only in the series, since he will be able to appear in any series of the Arrow-Verse, namely Arrow, Supergirl and DC's Legends of Tomorrow.
"He's a classic character, and we have storylines on several shows that match his return. There's something so scary about him, even scarier than when he was just a man, because he's now Black Flash, he's like the Devil. How do you stop the devil? He represents an interesting challenge for the heroes of the respective series in which he will appear. "
Zoom was defeated by The Flash in the season 2 finale. He has been transformed into Black Flash, a creature destined to take human cars to their final destination in the Swift Force. In other words, it is the embodiment of death for speedsters.
It's unclear if Teddy Sears, who played the role in the show's second season, will return, given his commitment to FOX's new series, 24: Legacy.
The Flash will be back on Tuesday, January 24, 2017 on the American channel CW for the rest of season 3.
