One of the Flash’s most beloved allies is coming to the CW in the fall. The network announced Monday that Ralph Dibny aka the Elongated Man, will be joining the cast of “The Flash” in Season 4 as a recurring role.
Hartley Sawyer, who previously starred on CW Seed’s “Saving the Human Race,” has been cast as the hero who has the power to stretch his body into any shape or form.
Dibny is a fast-talking private investigator with amazing deduction skills. However, once he discovers what he can do, he uses his abilities to help Team Flash solve one of Central City’s greatest mysteries.
At the end of Season 3, Barry Allen sacrificed himself into the Speed Force, so the status of Team Flash is up in the air. A trailer released at Comic-Con shows that the group has at least been working together in some capacity since Barry’s disappearance. That even includes the reappearance of Caitlin Snow, who left the team to become Killer Frost last season.
