'The Flash' Season 2 Spoilers: Will Grant Gustin's Barry Allen Fight Aaron Douglas' Turtle?

The CW network continues with Season 2 of The Flash. After his previous confrontation with Zoom (voiced by Tony Todd), will Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) find himself against the super villain known as Turtle (guest star Aaron Douglas)?

In our previous recap, Barry quickly realized he was no match to fight the immortal Vandal Savage (Casper Crump) alone. Needing the help of the Green Arrow (Stephen Amell), the scarlet speedster raced against the clock to protect Hawkgirl (Ciara Renee). Realizing her true destiny, Hawkgirl teamed up with Hawkman and the scarlet speedster to take down their immortal enemy.

In our recent recap, the Weather Wizard (Liam McIntyre) broke both Trickster (Mark Hamill) and Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) from prison. While Iris was telling her father Joe West (Jesse L. Martin) about his long-lost son, Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker) shared a kiss with Jay Garrick (Teddy Sears). With Captain Cold out of the picture, the Flash raced into the air fighting the Weather Wizard and stopped the Trickster's detonation. As Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanagh) betrayed the others, Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) shocked everyone when he arrived at their doorstep.

According to TV Line, the Battlestar Galactica alum will take on the DC Comics villain role. Just like in the comics, Turtle's powers will remain the same and he will be able to slow down time itself; think of The Tortoise and the Hare fable but with a twist. Turtle will use his powers to thwart Barry's attempts to run faster, which he needs to do before taking down Zoom.

As we mentioned before, this casting announcement has been released just after Kevin Smith was confirmed as a future director in the season's last episodes. No word yet on when viewers will see Douglas on the show though.

The Flash continues Season 2 on the CW Tuesdays at 8pm on January 19, 2016.

Readers, are you excited for the Turtle?
