It looks like we’re going to be meeting Caitlin Snow’s mom on the next season of “The Flash.”
EW has announced that “The Vampire Diaries” alumni Susan Walters has signed on to join the show as Carla Tannhauser. In addition to being Caitlin Snow’s mother, Carla is also a biomedical engineer and the CEO of a major research company.
According to the report Caitlin and her mother don’t exactly get along and they have what’s being described as a “difficult relationship.”
It was also noted that there’s potential for Carla Tannhauser to become a recurring character.
“The Flash” season 3 will of course kick off with “Flashpoint” and Danielle Panabaker recently commented on how the Caitlin we see in “Flashpoint” will be different from the Caitlin Snow that we’ve come to know and love.
“Totally different,” Panabaker says. “All the relationships are very different.”
“The Flash” will return on the CW on Tuesday, October 4th.
