Robbie Amell Joins Cast of 'The Flash'

Robbie Amell will play Ronnie Raymond in The CW's The Flash


Amell was the star of The CW's Tomorrow People, but that show was trash, so it was cancelled. Now he returns to the network and will rejoin producer, Greg Berlanti (from Tomorrow People).

Even though everything on The CW is subpar, let's hope The Flash is closer to its counter part, Arrow, than it is to Tomorrow People

Amell's character, Ronnie, works at S.T.A.R. Labs and plays a role in how Barry Allen (The Flash) gets his powers. In the comics, Ronnie is half of the alter ego, Firestorm.

Berlanti had this to say:

"[Executive produers] Geoff Johns, Andrew Kreisberg and I designed the pilot and series to include Ronnis (aka Firestorm) -- and to actually have someone with Robbie's talent playing the role is beyond exciting. We can't wait for viewers and fans of the characters to check it out."

There's no word whether this version of Firestorm will be a combined character, which brings up some diversity questions for this show.
