Danielle Panabaker as Dr. Caitlin Snow, Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramon, Tom Cavanagh as Dr. Harrison Wells, Jesse Martin as Detective Joe West.

They will also be joined by the man who played Barry Allen/Flash on the 1990 television version, John Wesley Shipp. He will be playing the recurring role of Henry Allen.

Also included is Prison Break's Wentworth Miller who will be playing the role of Leonard Snart, otherwise known as Captain Cold. The Flash season 1 spoilers ahead: He is slated to appear by episode 4.
