Jesse Quick and Tokamak cast for The Flash season 2

August 25, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Yesterday we got our first image from season two of The Flash [see here], and now we have word on two new casting additions to the CW superhero series.

According to The Wrap, newcomer Violett Beanne is set to play the speedster Jesse Quick, who is described as “a brilliant, quirky college student who gets caught up in Barry Allen’s (Grant Gustin) battle with Season 2’s big bad, Zoom.”

Furthermore, Demore Barnes (12 Monkeys) will play the villain Henry Hewitt, a.k.a. Tokamak, “a charming, but cocky scientist who was affected by the same Particle Accelerator explosion that created the Flash.”
