Nicholas Young is on his way back to The Tomorrow People.

The actor - who starred on the original version of this upcoming CW drama as John Young (who will be portrayed on the new series by Luke Mitchell) - will appear on Episodes 8 and 9 of Season 1.

Look for Young to come on board as a scientist named Aldus Crick who discovered and examined the first generation of Tomorrow People.

He will have a connection to Robbie Amell's Stephen Jameson via the latter's father, as Stephen will hope Crick has information about his dad's disappearance.

The Tomorrow People tells the tale of a group of individuals who learn they are the next step in human evolution. Think The X Men meets Heroes and tune in for the series premiere on Wednesday, October 9, following the opener of Arrow Season 2.
