Joey King, best known for her roles in Fargo and Independence Day: Resurgence, will guest star on The Flash in October as Magenta.
A teen with a troubled past, Frances "Frankie” Kane is a meta-human with the ability to control metal... but her powers come with a dangerous side-effect, causing her villainous alter ego known as Magenta to emerge.
King, who also appeared in Wish I Was Here, will appear on the season's third episode.
Created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez, Magenta first appeared in a 1982 issue of The New Teen Titans. Given her name and power set, she inevitably draws comparisons to the famed X-Men villain Magneto.
At one point, Magenta was one of a number of characters who formed a new team of Rogues -- which could be notable, given that The Flash's third season introduces both Mirror Master and Dr. Alchemy, both members of the Rogues at various points in their careers.
