THE FLASH Season 1, Episode 4 Description; "Going Rogue" - Details On 'Captain Cold'
The Flash's fourth episode will see Prison Break star Wentworth Miller make his debut as the villainous Captain Cold in an instalment written by Geoff Johns. The official description reveals plenty of new details about the character, and teases an "epic confrontation"...
WENTWORTH MILLER GUEST STARS AS DC COMICS’ VILLAIN CAPTAIN COLD — The Flash (Grant Gustin) stops a robbery but the culprits get away after shooting a guard, and The Flash chooses to save the man instead of following the criminals. Joe (Jesse L. Martin) shows Barry a book of suspects and Barry identifies Leonard Snart (guest star Wentworth Miller, “Prison Break”) as the leader of the group. Snart revises his plan to steal the Kahndaq Dynasty Diamond and gets a boost when he gets his hands on a stolen “cold gun,” which could kill The Flash. Dr. Wells (Tom Cavanagh) is furious when he finds out that Cisco (Carlos Valdes) built the cold gun without telling anyone and now it’s missing. Meanwhile, Iris (Candice Patton) is getting the silent treatment from Joe because of her relationship with Eddie (Rick Cosnett). Finally, The Flash and Captain Cold have an epic confrontation. Glen Winter directed the episode written by Goff Johns & Kai Yu Wu (#104).
So, it sounds as if Leonard Snart - the future Captain Cold - will already have a team of Rogues when he's introduced here, something which perhaps serves as a good indication of what's to come for him in The Flash. It's interesting that the Cold Gun is a creation of Dr. Harrison Wells too, especially as he's the prime suspect for who could be Reverse-Flash...we'll just have to wait and see!
