THE FLASH Casts 'Zoom' For Season 2

Source:ComicBookMovie.com

When the Flash started last year, I must admit at the start I 

was not a huge fan off the show, after getting sucked into the

dark world of Starling City in the Arrow, The Flash was a 

little to light and cheesey for me, but by the end of the 

season the show grew on me and I became a fan. 

In the first season we had the villain Dr Wells 

(Reverse-Flash) who was a pritty good villian, but they plan 

to top this villian in season 2 by introducing the villainous 

Zoom.

Well Variety reveals that horror icon star of Candyman Tony 

Todd has been cast as the voice of Zoom, and Zoom will

 make his first apperance in the second episode (The Flash 

Of Two Worlds)

Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg tells the trade.

 "Part of the mystery of the season is who or what is underneath the Zoom outfit, and 
so we wanted to do something like James Earl Jones as Darth Vader — this iconic voice coming out of this mask. Last year, we thought of the Reverse-Flash as a speed warrior; this year, Zoom is like a speed demon, and no one does demon-voice better than Tony Todd."

It also sounds like we should take that ''speed demon'' 

description quite literally too, as Kreisberg goes on to 

compare Zoom's apperance to Venom, adding:

"The Zoom outfit is much more organic than the Reverse-Flash suit. In a way, it’s hard to tell if it is a suit or alive… There’s no skin showing, for all you know there’s a robot underneath, or dark energy."
