Harrison Wells Will Be a Detective In 'The Flash' Season 5

Harrison Wells will be reinvented yet again for the upcoming season of The Flash.

In season five, Harrison, played by Tom Cavanagh, will take on a Sherlock Holmes persona, Harrison Sherloque Wells.

“We [also] have a new version of Harrison Wells again this year. Harrison Sherloque Wells,” showrunner Todd Helbig dished to Variety. “He’s French, and like his name suggests, he’s a master detective who’s come to help them track down this season’s big bad. He also motivates Ralph Dibny to put his PI hat back on, so we get to see these two out in the field a lot and see who’s got the best detective chops.”

The Flash season five premieres Tuesday, October 9th on The CW.
