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.
