While the others have been on the show this season, this is the first appearance on The Flash in quite a while for Emily Kinney. The The Walking Dead veteran is well-known for playing a charming and soft-spoken character who, over time, evolved into a strong-willed person who nevertheless retained a sense of quiet outrage over the world’s injustices. That translated to an interesting approach to playing a supervillain on The Flash when she debuted back in 2015.
“I do think that in this particular case, there was an outside element that helped me with the character, and that would be the costuming and the special effects and all of that,” Kinney told ComicBook.com in an interview that will run tomorrow morning. “There are things about Brie that are very different from Beth. The way that she holds onto anger or holds onto a grudge, I think, is very different. I was able to key into different things, and so I feel like I’ll come across very different. It’s funny how just something like someone’s clothing and hair will make you clue into something about their personality. I think those will help people distinguish between Beth and Brie.”
