We haven’t even seen the midseason premiere yet, but here’s a peek into the future at what’s to come in the episode after next over on The Flash. As that’ll be Valentine’s Day week, the Scarlet Speedster’s show will deliver a romance-themed hour revolving around Barry and Iris on Date Night. However, this being Central City, their plans will be scuppered by the arrival of not one, but two old enemies.
These two familiar foes are metahuman crime bosses Amunet Black and Goldface. This marks the first appearance of Katee Sackhoff as fan favorite Amunet since her recurring role in season 4. Meanwhile, Goldface debuted in an episode of season 5, as played by Damion Poitier – AKA Thanos in The Avengers. The pair haven’t shared the screen before, but the two characters have been established as ex-husband and wife. So, could sparks fly again in this outing?
Take a look at what’s in store in the episode, titled “Love is a Battlefield,” in the gallery below:
