Straight from the series’ panel at San Diego Comic-Con, The CW has released The Flash season 6 sizzle reel, debuting new footage from the series and confirming the addition of Heroes star Sendhil Ramamurthy in the recurring role of DC villain Bloodwork.
Ramamurthy has signed on to season six as Dr. Ramsey Rosso, a brilliant physician with a genius intellect, and the world’s leading expert on hematological oncology. A former colleague of S.T.A.R. Labs’ Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker), Rosso rekindles their friendship after they are reunited by an unexpected event. But their longtime bond is quickly shattered when the doctor’s desire to defy the laws of nature takes him down a dark path…one that transforms Rosso from an old friend into the most chilling villain Team Flash has ever faced: the monstrous Bloodwork.
The Flash series stars Grant Gustin as Barry Allen/The Flash with Candice Patton as Iris West-Allen, Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost, Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramon/Vibe, Hartley Sawyer as Ralph Dibny/Elongated Man, with Tom Cavanagh as Harrison Wells, and Jesse L. Martin as Detective Joe West.
Based on the DC characters, the series is executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and Eric Wallace. The Flash is produced by Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television.
