The Flash adds Greg Grunberg in recurring role

November 17, 2016 by Ricky Church

The CW’s The Flash has made a new addition to its cast in Greg Grunberg, who will have a recurring role starting in next week’s episode ‘Killer Frost’.

According to Mashable, Grunberg will play Detective Tom Patterson, a “gruff, stalwart figure at Central City Police Department” who is “unwavering in his commitment to protecting Central City from the dangerous metas that threaten it.” ‘Killer Frost’ is, funny enough, directed by Grunberg’s Geeking Out co-host Kevin Smith.

Grunberg is no stranger to cop or superhero roles after playing telepath Detective Matt Parkman in Heroes and Heroes Reborn. Smith is also no stranger to superheroes and even directed ‘The Runaway Dinosaur’ in Flash‘s second season.

Check out the trailer for ‘Killer Frost’ here and the synopsis below…

KEVIN SMITH DIRECTS; KILLER FROST EMERGES — Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) uses her powers to save Barry (Grant Gustin) but as her mother predicted, the effort unleashes her inner Killer Frost. Killer Frost goes on a rampage looking for Dr. Alchemy, kidnapping Julian (Tom Felton) and battling both The Flash and Vibe (Carlos Valdes). Meanwhile, Joe (Jesse L. Martin) and H.R. (Tom Cavanagh) have a heart to heart talk.

Originally published November 17, 2016. Updated March 2, 2020.
