Entertainment Weekly have reported that Battlestar Galactica actress, Katee Sackhoff, has been cast as a villain for the upcoming fourth season of The Flash.
It has been reported that Sackhoff will be playing the villain Blacksmith, and that she will be appearing in at least one episode. The episode is titled 'Girls Night Out', and will act as a small crossover with Arrow, featuring Emily Bett Rickards as Felicity Smoak.
Blacksmith, real name Amunet Black, first appeared in Flash: Iron Heights by Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver in 2001.
Her character ran an underground black market called 'The Network' in Central City for supervillains to buy and sell illegal items. Eventually she mutates her body to be able to fuse organic and inorganic matter, allowing her to merge flesh and metal and shape it to her will.
Blacksmith has connections to multiple members of the rogues gallery in the comics, including the Trickster, Mirror Master, Weather Wizard, and even Zoom. Whether she will have similar connections in the CW show is yet to be revealed.
The Flash returns on October 10th.
