UPDATE 2: TVLine has confirmed Todd\'s casting with official news of which character he is playing.

TVLine has learned that Vampire Diaries alum Todd Lasance has been cast in the recurring role of The Rival, who in DC Comics lore is a self-made, black-suited speedster. The Aussie actor — whose previous TV credits also include Spartacus: War of the Damned and Home and Away — will first appear in the Season 3 premiere, airing Tuesday, Oct. 4 at 8/7c.

UPDATE: Greg Berlanti has just tweeted revealing Todd Lasance is NOT playing Savitar, The Hollywood Reporter first announced this casting but later edited their article as a result of Greg Berlanti\'s tweets. Editor\'s Note: This story has been updated to reflect that the role of Savitar has not yet been cast.

For all those tweeting me or elsewhere. We have NOT cast Savitar. Those reports are incorrect. #theflash

So who is the mysterious, dark speedster that was glimpsed in the season three trailer? Finally, at the 2016 Summer Television Critics Association press tour, Helbing was able to reveal that The Vampire Diaries alum Todd Lasance will be playing DC Comics supervillain Savitar.

Savitar has been a part of The Flash canon since he was first introduced in 1995 by Mark Waid and Oscar Jimenez. As most supervillain origin stories go, he actually began as a good guy, a regular human who was a pilot for a third-world nation during the Cold War. When he was testing a supersonic fighter jet, his plane was struck by lightning just as he reached top speed.

That accident gave him speedster powers, and he named himself after the Hindu god of motion since he believed his newfound powers were a divine gift. But Savitar was different from other speedsters. Described as a "vicious and cruel man," he became obsessed with his new powers, and dedicated his life to studying Velocity and pushing himself. He discovered many new powers that no other speedster had ever been able to accomplish. He could lend speed to other objects and even other people, heal himself instantly and even protect himself with a force field. But the one thing he always craved was more access to the Speed Force.

Every day 100\'s of items are submitted to us and we don\'t always have the time to make separate posts for the news and/or there is so much that it would quickly push all other items off the homepage.

So a result we\'ve come up with the idea of the Newsreel, which will feature smaller shows and news items as they happen.

There will be a new Newsreel each day, and as news is added we will update the post and and push it back to the top of the site so that you can see that new items have been added. A tweet of the item will also be sent to our @SpoilerTV account.

This will allow us to provide more news on more shows in a much more timely fashion

Rather that creating lots of new posts as new info is released and fragmenting the commentary, we thought it would be a good idea for the upcoming major movies to create a single post for each major movies that will collate all the info as it\'s posted.

New items will be added to the top of the list as well as the post being re-posted back to the top of the homepage when a new item is added. We will additionally send out a fresh tweet alerting you of the new information.

This will allow you to bookmark this page so that you can return to it whenever you like. It will also help consolidate all the discussion on this movie in a central place and make it less likely that you\'ll miss some key information.
