South African actress Kim Engelbrecht has jetted off to Vancouver, Canada, to join the cast of the hit US TV superhero series The Flash.

Kim and fellow South African Neil Sandilands have both been roped in to join the series' fourth season. It was announced last weekend at the 2017 International Comic-Con in San Diego.

Kim, pictured, will play the role of a brainy engineer called The Mechanic on the series.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE from Vancouver, Kim said she was excited to have joined the star-studded cast. "I am really excited to be in The Flash, as it is a series which I have followed and liked for some time. It's also exciting to be working in Vancouver," said Kim.
