Danielle Panabaker stars as ‘Caitlin Snow’ in The CW’s The Flash, a new series premiering on October 7, 2014 with Grant Gustin in the lead and an audience eager to see the popular comic book character as the centerpiece of his own series. Panabaker was among The Flash cast members who made it to the 2014 San Diego Comic-Con to discuss the series and in our interview, she said that each week when she gets a new script, she’s been so excited to see what’s happening with her character and the series.

“It just totally blew my mind. I’m so proud of the writers and so excited – and so grateful,” said Panabaker. “The scripts are amazing. Every week is a new rogue, a new meta-human, a new bad guy, and it’s so cool to see the ones that they picked and to learn about them.”

Panabaker also explained what it was that she latched onto to get into Caitlin. “I think what I love about these guys is they write really awesome women, and it’s so nice to be not just a girlfriend or not just a sister or a daughter. She is a very strong woman with her own point of view and her own history,” said Panabaker.
