THE FLASH Is Casting A Major Recurring Character For Season 3, But Is He Friend Or Foe?

Not much is known about season three of The Flash as of right now, especially after Barry travelled back in time to change the past. However, it sounds like the Scarlet Speedster will have a new rival...

Season two of The Flash concluded with Barry Allen racing back in time to save his mother's life, a decision which could very well lead to the small screen version of the Flashpoint reality which served as a prelude to "The New 52" in the comic books. As of right now though, we have no idea whether a new timeline is going to exist or if the Scarlet Speedster somehow finds a way to return things to normal early on. Either way, a new casting call points to him still working for the CCPD next season. 

According to TV Line, The CW is looking to cast, "the major recurring character of Barry’s slightly older, slightly geekier contemporary, a guy who is as smart as he is intuitive. As such, this newcomer doesn’t buy Barry’s nice guy routine and sets out to learn what he’s hiding — all while concealing some secrets of his own." Does that ring any bells? No one instantly comes to mind for me, but this could very well be a new villain based on that quite vague description. Share your theories below.

Albert Desmond aka Dr. Alchemy. He works in the crime lab with Barry in the comics. He'd be an awesome big bad.

So guys, about Flashpoint. DO you guys think it will last all of Season 3. Or will it just be (at most) the first half of the season.

Or do you think it will be fixed six months before where Season 3 starts off?

If he's the big baddie too, pleeeeeaaaase don't make him a speedster. Barry needs to face a primary villian/rival who doesn't have similar powers. I know he's faced villains who aren't speedsters, but his primary adversary for the first two seasons have always been speed force using fellas
