King Shark and Gorilla Grodd appearing in an episode together was teased by The Flash showrunner Todd Helbing at San Diego Comic Con last year. Now DC fans will finally see two iconic rouges take each other on in a new episode of the series. The upcoming episode will see Team Flash enlist the help of King Shark to take down Gorilla Grodd.
Gorilla Grodd is one of the biggest nemesis of the Scarlet Speedster and was first referenced in the pilot episode. The character has only appeared briefly throughout the series because the character is a difficult special effect to achieve on a TV budget. King Shark has also had limited appearances in the Arrowverse, so it will be exciting for fans to see the two face off in what could be the biggest episode of the series. The CW has officially released the synopsis for the upcoming Season five episode titled, King Shark vs. Gorilla Grodd, which fans can check out below.
“THE ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN
When Gorilla Grodd (voiced by David Sobolov) attacks Central City, Barry (Grant Gustin) and Team Flash find themselves teaming up with an unexpected ally to defeat – King Shark (voiced by David Hayter). However, when they hit a snag, they bring in Dr. Tanya Lamden (guest star Zibby Allen) to try to reach the man behind the shark, Shay Lamden (guest star Dan Payne). Stefan Pleszczynski directed the episode written by Eric Wallace & Lauren Certo.”

Here is the synopsis for The Flash Season five:
Matching wits with The Thinker, who by season’s end had harnessed the powers of all twelve bus metas he created, stretched Team Flash to their limits, but with the help of some new allies, Barry Allen (aka The Flash) and company were able to put a stop to the Enlightenment and save Central City once again. However, with the arrival of Barry and Iris’ speedster daughter, Nora, who arrived from the future admitting to having made a “big mistake,” things are anything but status quo. Will parenthood be the challenge that finally slows The Flash down?
The series stars Grant Gustin as Barry Allen / Flash, Candice Patton as Iris West, Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow / Killer Frost, Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramon / Vibe, Tom Cavanagh as Harrison “Sherloque” Wells, Jesse L. Martin as Joe West, Danielle Nicolet as Cecile Horton, Hartley Sawyer as Ralph Dibny / Elongated Man, Jessica Parker Kennedy as Nora West-Allen, and Chris Klein as Cicada.
