WENTWORTH MILLER GUEST STARS AS DC COMICS’ VILLAIN CAPTAIN COLD; FELICITY FROM “ARROW” CROSSES OVER INTO CENTRAL CITY

While investigating the case, Barry gets a surprise visit from an old friend – Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards, “Arrow”), who heard about his new abilities and came to check them out for herself. She joins him at S.T.A.R. Labs to help stop Snart after it’s revealed that Snart his gotten 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.

Was surprised Fel wasn't mentioned in the first release. I'm quite intrigued by the kiss we saw in that trailer.
ReplyDeleteCW really needs to fire their PR person. It should have been something like
ReplyDeleteLeonard Snart emerges as the villain Captain Cold and a deadly threat to The Flash. Meanwhile Felicity Smoak comes to Central City to visit Barry.
BOOM. Short sweet and non too spoilery.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the exact same synopsis except with an added sentence about Felicity, hence making it even more unnecessarily long and detailed?
ReplyDeleteLOL, I was surprised that Felicity wasn't mentioned in the first press release, now I'm just amused they released a new one with her in it. The press releases for the CW are starting to be like the Hannibal ones- more like an episode recap than a teasing synopsis.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is the PR person who did these saw Felicity in the Flash write up and thought it was a mistake because it was an Arrow character.
ReplyDeleteBut CW has been doing these types of press releases for awhile. It's the point where sometimes I just read the first sentence or two and then stop reading.
LOL, could be. I stopped reading the Hannibal ones because they would spoil major plot points and even character deaths in their press releases. I'm ok right now with reading spoilers for Arrow/The Flash, but if at some point it gets too much for me, I'll definitely stop reading them. There are shows where I don't mind knowing everything in advance.
ReplyDeleteIt was done to make more people watch it. Oh and to tease Barry and Felicity fans.
ReplyDeletecan't wait!!!
ReplyDeleteIt starts of exciting with Captain cold.....then it throws in some random dull Iris story lol
ReplyDeleteIt's crossover material.
