‘The Flash’ season 2 spoilers: More news on Katie Cassidy appearance

For some time now, it has been known that Katie Cassidy would be appearing on an upcoming episode of “The Flash” season 2 as a slightly different version of Laurel Lance. The Earth-2 version is a woman who goes by the name of Black Siren, and let’s just say that she may not be entirely as kind-hearted. She may also be a part of the latest plan from Zoom to ensure that Barry Allen and all of her friends are stopped once and for all.

Cassidy will be appearing in the May 17 installment entitled “Invincible,” which is the second-to-last one of the season. The synopsis below offers up some other news as to what to expect:

“After Zoom (guest star Teddy Sears) unleashes an army of Earth-2 meta-humans on Central City, Barry (Grant Gustin) is shaken when he sees their leader is the Black Canary’s Earth-2 doppelganger, the Black Siren (guest star Katie Cassidy). Meanwhile, Wally (Keiynan Lonsdale) takes to the streets to help The Flash stop the meta-humans, which worries Joe (Jesse L. Martin). Iris (Candice Patton) and Henry (guest star John Wesley Shipp) are concerned about Barry taking on Zoom.”

Isn’t it nice to know that we’re getting at least a couple of episodes with Henry Allen at the end of this season? Given how under-utilized he has been this season, it is a nice reminder that he is out there. Meanwhile, it’s nice to see Wally taking on more of a heroic role. Maybe this is not what turns him into a speedster right away, but this could be a part of his own origin story depending on what happens.
