Ahead of The Flash’s upcoming fifth season, the Scarlet Speedster-centric series has moved to add Kyle Secor to its cast.

Via EW, Secor – best known for Veronica Mars and The Purge: Election Year – has joined the show as Dr Thomas Snow, the father of Danielle Panabaker’s Caitlin Snow. That’s all well and good, apart from the little fact that Thomas has long been presumed dead.

The character description for Thomas Snow has him pegged as “an extremely intelligent genetic scientist who has been absent for decades. When he returns to Central City, he will try his best to make up for lost time with Caitlin. However, he also has a big secret that he will keep from his daughter.”

Sounds a tad frosty, if you ask us.

With American Pie’s Chris Klein to play the metahuman-destroying Cicada as this new season’s ‘big bad’, The Flash is set to return to screens October 9th.
