Major New Details Revealed About Reverse-Flash's Upcoming Debut In THE FLASH

If you were one of the people that guessed that the person wearing that Reverse-Flash costume on the set of The Flash was a stuntman, then give yourself a pat on the back! Barry Allen will come face to face with the villain in the midseason finale of The CW series, but we won't be finding out his identity just yet according to Grant Gustin in an interviewith Entertainment Weekly. "Barry will actually get to come face to face with him, not just running with him, but standing face to face with him, looking at him," he told Entertainment Weekly in a recent interview. "He’s vibrating, so he doesn’t know who he is. We don’t see his face. No characters see his face and the audience doesn’t necessarily see his face either, but Barry gets to hear him say that he killed his mom."
 
So, who is Reverse-Flash? Though fans are pointing to Detective Eddie Thawne and Harrison Wells as the most likely suspects, it sounds as if there are lots of surprises to come! "I didn’t even remotely see coming what Andrew Kreisberg told me is going to be one of the turning points with that storyline," adds Gustin. "I’ve heard so many theories surrounding Reverse Flash that are all interesting. I was like, ‘Oh, I know what’s going on,’ but literally no one knows what’s going on. Anyone who thinks they know what’s going on is wrong. I’m in the in and I thought I knew, but Andrew told me and I was like, ‘Holy crap.'" Learning that this villain is indeed responsible for killing his mother will apparently cause the hero to lose "his mind a little bit," but that will be followed by what sounds like an epic fight scene between the two! "Following that, we have a huge fight that we shot in the football stadium in Vancouver. That was huge."
 
Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg weighs in by teasing Team Flash's reaction to meeting Reverse-Flash, and it might just clear Wells' name! "Episode 9 is really cool because it’s everybody coming together to help,” Kreisberg says. “Cisco [Carlos Valdes] and Wells [Tom Cavanagh] devise a trap to bait the Reverse Flash and they enlist the help of Tina McGee, played by Amanda Pays from the original Flash show. It becomes an interesting new combination of characters. It’s fun when you finally see our team confronting the Reverse Flash and seeing everybody’s reactions, because he is the devil, in a way, to the show,” Kreisberg continues. “When you finally see everybody confront him, it’s really scary. It’s certainly the scariest thing we’ve done on the show. Our tone note to Tom, Jesse and Grant was to pretend you were in the room with the alien from Alien. You should all be that scared." What do you guys think about these latest details?

Maybe its a future version of Wells? Then again, Wells can see the future but maybe not his? Who knows. Should be great to see it unfold.

By what I mean in my previous comment is that current day Wells doesn't even know hes turning into Reverse Flash.

Maybe it's a version of Barry Allen from the future, crazed and goes back into the past hoping to stop himself from becoming the Flash. Wierd crazy theory... I like the idea that the cast is also in the dark as to who the Reverse-Flash is. They should never have let Grant knw & stick with the stuntman until theh're ready for the big reveal

It was the Vibrator that killed Barry's mom! She was probably a lonely woman...

@ToastedCheese Gotham is one of the worst tv shows i've ever laid my eyes on. second only to under the dome. after this horrible midseason finale, i've finally decided to quit. the characters are inconsistent, the story simply isn't appealing enough and the tone is just so uneven it's sad. agents of shield have found it's footing, maybe gotham will too (i doubt it, but never say never).. until then - no thank you.

Even if he vibrates his face Flash shouldn't have a problem seeing him.
