In the interview, Patton talk’s about her character’s father, Detective Joe West, played by Jesse. L. Martin.
“He’s very overprotective,” says Patton. “I guess, being the daughter of a detective, that kind of comes with the territory.”
“She probably would have been a detective if he hadn’t, like, meddled and said, ‘No way, I’m not letting my daughter be in the line of work that I’m in, it’s too dangerous,” Patton continues. “So, I think she’s used to it, but I think it can get frustrating.”
The Flash will premiere October 7 at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
