Rumours circled around actress Kiersey Clemons this past month, but Variety has now confirmed the Dope and Neighbours 2: Sorority Rising star has now been cast in a lead role in The Flash film.
This will mark the second time Clemons has worked with Flash director Rick Famuyiwa, who directed her in Dope. While Variety doesn’t state who Clemons will play, it is very likely she’s been cast as reporter Iris West, who also happens to be Barry Allen’s friend and love interest.

The Flash races to theaters on March 16, 2018.
