Victor Garber fans are likely aware of his recent run on the hit CW show “The Flash,” where he played Martin Stein, a scientist who can merge with Robbie Amell’s character of Ronnie Raymond to create the superhero Firestorm.

In a new interview with Broadway World, Garber confirmed that the previously-announced Flash-spinoff he is starring in will skip the pilot process and go straight to series. “We haven’t filmed any of it yet – but, it is going straight to series. We start filming in August and it will be on in January,” he said.

Garber is also excited about the cast he will join. “It’s so many interesting people involved with it – Ciara and Arthur Darvill and Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell and Brandon Routh and Caity Lotz. I am very much looking forward to working with all of them on it. They are all really great people.”
