The Flash has added another scarlet speedster to the cast for season 2 with Violett Beane joining the show as Jesse Quick…
The Flash season 2 will feature a whole bunch of new speedsters to join Barry Allen including the old school Flash Jay Garrick as well as Wally West and now Jesse Quick will be joining the list as well.
Newcomer Violett Beane, who only has two acting credits on her IMDB page to date, will play Jesse Quick in season 2 of the popular superhero series on the CW.
In comic book lore, Jesse Quick is the daughter of Johnny Quick and Liberty Belle, who inherits her fast speed from a formula handed over by her father when he decides to pass down his secret while hoping to create a successor.
Her origin will be a little different in The Flash TV show with producers describing Jesse as “a brilliant but quirky college student who gets caught up in the battle between The Flash and Season 2 Big Bad — Zoom.”
The Flash has become one of the hottest properties at the CW with a huge new list of cast members joining the show for season 2 including a few additions to ‘the Flash family’.
The Flash returns for season 2 on the CW on October 6 at 8pm ET.
