Dominic Purcell is the latest to join the new CW superhero team spinoff of Arrow and The Flash.

Deadline reports Purcell will be reprising as Heat Wave from The Flash series.

Wentworth Miller was also previously confirmed, so the Captain Cold/Heat Weave duo remains intact for the spinoff.

Purcell also joins Brandon Routh, Victor Garber and Caity Lotz.

Yesterday also saw the news that the superhero team spinoff will not feature Robbie Amell, the other half of Firestorm, though the reason was unclear.

Arrow creators Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and Marc Guggenheim are behind the new series with the spinoff likely to be released next mid-season.
