Candice Patton To Play Iris West In CW's The Flash


The CW's The Flash pilot has just found it's Iris West in Candice Patton (via Deadline) who portrayed Tori on The Game. Patton has also appeared on shows such as One Tree Hill and Heroes. Jesse L. Martin will play Detective West, father to Iris, while Candice Patton's Iris is "As smart as she is beautiful, Iris is in grad school studying psychology. She's also Barry's mile a minute, fast-talking, quick-witted best friend."
In The Flash comic books, Iris West has always been a reporter. However, it seems The CW showrunners want to mix it up a bit with her backstory.

Previous casting for The Flash included Danielle Panabaker (Caitlin Snow) and Rick Gosnett (Det. Eddie Thawne)
