In the latest attempt by CW's The Flash as a nod to the original '90s TV series, Mark Hamill is set to step back in the Trickster's shoes, 23 years after playing the character opposite John Wesley Shipp.
The character, also known as James Jesse, is set to appear in episode 17 and be a different take on the character from the iteration Hamill originally played, according to HitFix, which first reported the news.

Shipp will also appear in the episode, which airs in 2015.
Flash's midseason finale airs on Tuesday on the CW.
