TV Line is reporting that Sara Garcia (Reign; X Company) has joined the cast of The Flash season seven as Alexa Rivera, who the team will soon discover is actually the Strength Force, or "Fuerza," as Cisco (Carlos Valdes) dubbed her after her first encounter with the Scarlet Speedster.

The CW describes her as "a social aid health worker who is working hard to overcome a dark past as she helps the underprivileged in Central City. But when Alexa uncovers a mysterious connection to the all-powerful Strength Force, she becomes Team Flash’s most dangerous threat yet.

She now joins the Speed Force (Michelle Harrison), Sage Force (Ennis Esmer), and Still Force (Christian Magby); and with all four forces accounted for, it looks like the stage is finally set for the seventh season's primary conflict. 

While Garcia will make her debut in Tuesday's episode, the main focus of the hour will be Killer Frost's trial and the lengths Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) will go to save her sister. 

Check out the promo for episode eight, titled "The People v. Killer Frost," below:

"The People V. Killer Frost" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (TV-PG, LV) (HDTV)

CAITLIN FIGHTS TO CLEAR FROST - With Frost (Danielle Panabaker) facing an unjust punishment for her past crimes, Caitlin goes to great lengths to save her sister. Meanwhile, Barry's (Grant Gustin) efforts to protect Speed Force Nora (guest star Michelle Harrison) lead to a shocking discovery. Sudz Sutherland directed the episode written by Jonathan Butler & Gabriel Garza (#708). Original airdate 5/4/2021

Hope this season gets better. Been a step backwards from last season.

Wonder how long this arc will last before they switch to Godspeed.

Really I would have switched their places. The forces seem like a bigger threat

I’m thinking it’s The Flash film never mind. Next time specify. And y’all really watch this mess? Crazy how all these years DC tv show universes last longer than film universe. Fire the whole WB executive teams.

Can’t believe how much terrible Williamson stuff they’ve adapted already.

Did the different forces have personifications in the comics? Not familiar with them. Thought they were going with Godspeed

@bkmeijer - In the comics they ended up affecting some Rogues and used them as conduits. The concept of conduits for the Forces hasn't been discarded in this show though but with other characters.
