Chris Klein is THE FLASH‘s new big bad. The actor has signed on to play the villainous Cicada in the upcoming fifth season, it was announced at Comic-Con.
Per WB, Cicada is “a grizzled, blue-collar everyman whose family has been torn apart by metahumans…[he] now seeks to exterminate the epidemic — one metahuman at a time.”
“He’s not so much a cult leader, but his powers present a challenge for Team Flash they’ve never had to deal with before,” executive producer Todd Helbing teased during the show’s panel.
