THE FLASH: New Australian Promo Reveals Blue Speedster

THE FLASH: New Australian Promo Reveals Blue Speedster

As the day of The Flash's season 2 premiere draws ever nearer, expect new footage to be released in increasing frequency. Such is the case with a new Australian Promo for the CW show, which showcases Barry's powers in a rather unusual way!

Fans are eagerly awaiting the second season The CW​'s hit television series The Flash​, and as the impending premiere of the season's first episode draws ever nearer, you can expect new footage to be releasing more frequently. 

In Australia, instead of Cable television, we have a thing called Foxtel​, which is essentially the same thing. One of the channels including in the service is called FOX8, and it fast-tracks the series to Australia for fans down under. And, while making point of that in a brand new promo released via the channel's official Facebook page, may have shown an interesting bit of footage which subsequently provides us with some rather interesting information. You can check out the promo below:
 
The Flash Season 2 coming to FOX8

#TheFlash Season 2 is coming to FOX8 - Express from the US! Who's excited?

Posted by FOX8 on Thursday, 27 August 2015


Did you see it? Here's a screenshot for the footage in question:



Grant Gustin's Barry Allen's eyes are shown with BLUE lightning running through them! In the trailer released at San Diego Comic-Con this year, we saw a speedster running with blue lightning following - unlike Barry's Yellow Lightning streaks and Harrison Wells/Eobard Thawne's Red Lightning streaks. While many fans speculated the blue lightning belonged to Jay Garrick or Zoom, it may be Barry's after all. We do know to expect Flash to learn some kind of new power in the upcoming season, so there is the possibility it could be tied to that.

What do you guys think the blue lightning in Barry's eyes mean? Do you think the blue speedster is Barry, or do you still think it belongs to Garrick or Zoom? Sound off in the comments below, and don't forget to share and hit that thumbs up!

Yeah, I think it'll be past Barry we see in that scene though. He'll go back to yellow at some point. Pretty sure Zoom will be Barry

@Gutspinner,

Yeah, Zoom is almost certainly future Barry from the New 52 storyline, and the Wally West we get will probably be Future Wally.

Sorry, the original version of this article was done on my phone. Just updated it, and it SHOULD be showing now. And the embed code is now the original Facebook post, not the YT reupload :)

@SuperDude001

While that IS a possibility, it could look familiar because S1 had a similar moment, but YELLOW lightening was shown in his eyes instead of blue. The rest was footage we saw at SDCC plus the little bit about the show being fast tracked. Also, can't remember if we saw it in SDCC footage or not, but the blue speedster comes through the same time wormhole thing that opens when Barry first travels back in time, so we at the very least know that character travels through time. I think that time gate part was in SDCC trailer anyway though. But yeah, I don't think the blue lightening in the eyes would be there without it having meaning. Only time will tell though

@NightsKing

Yeah, I was also thinking that could be another possibility :)

@TheGeekInPurple

Yet another plausible possibility
The thing that interested me most when I was posting this is it is definitely Barry's eye. Whether or not it's in his eye (which personally, based on the shot and everything, I think it is), or its a reflection like @Gusto proposed, is unknown at this point, but that was definitely Grant Gustin's eye and Flash's mask

@DarthBob

Could be! There are a lot of potential explanations at this point, so that is totally plausible

@slickrickdesigns

I'm assuming you're talking about Wilding having an article on this before? This one was up first :P

@ManCalledSting

Haha 😂
I probably have the least Aussie Australian accent ever in all honesty
Did you read it as outback aussie ("G'day mate, beut ovva day ain't it?") or urban aussie (can't think of how to word that one)? Ahah :P
Also, yeah, I'd prefer we focus more on multiverse than timeline stuff

@Gusto

Minus the redneck and Better Call Saul (haven't seen it) from your comment, and change winter to summer, and I'd feel the exact same

Eddie is Cobalt Blue, that's my guess.
In the finale, he got yanked through the speed force wormhole to Earth2 along with all those cobalt plates that Wells had Cisco install. He could have arrived there as a new Flash.

Same clip they always use, they just change the color. Red, yellow, and now blue has been used. And I believe there is a casting call for zoom so he wont be future Barry.

Can someone actually explain this to me, please? Thanks...

I live in Australia, the tv show is an American tv series, made in America. I just don't get it how it become 'an Australian promo'... I don't get it!
