THE FLASH Season 7 Will See Barry Allen Finally Facing Off With The Real Godspeed Confirms Showrunner

The Flash showrunner Eric Wallace has confirmed that season 7 of The Flash will feature the real Godspeed after teasing fans for two years over the prospect of the Scarlet Speedster battling this villain!

The Flash has been faking us out with Godspeed since season 5 when the villainous speedster was introduced in 2049. Season 6 opened with Team Flash chasing down a number of Godspeed drones, and while the "real" version finally made his presence felt in this year''s penultimate episode, we still don't know what the deal is with this villain. 

After Godspeed was captured, he told Barry Allen that, "The one who sent me wants infinite velocity," and a previous iteration told the Scarlet Speedster, "We deserve your speed."

Grant Gustin has said that season 6 was meant to finish with a Reverse-Flash cliffhanger, so Godpseed is likely under Eobard Thawne's control, but will the show finally show us the real Godspeed no matter who is pulling the strings? TV Line put that to showrunner Eric Wallace, who said, "Yes, you just might...because that's where we're going!"

It's unclear whether this means the sinister speedster will be a big bad next year, but The CW has previously teased a "powerful" and "devastating" new threat to Central City. 

Many fans have been crying out for more Reverse-Flash, but Godspeed might have to do in the meantime!

Cool, was clear that they were setting Godspeed for the next season. Honestly, with talk of infinite velocity, would be a neat time to bring Zoom back...

It's very nice to see what this show can come up with such good results on costumes and occasionally SFX with a limited budget. This year was a nice change of pace. Excited for the next year.

@AtakanKaratas - yeah, I'm excited for next year too. This past season restored much of my interest in The Flash.

The secondary villain will surely be the Neilson Ratings

@inkniron - They still get at least a million viewers per episode in the US alone. Ratings is surely not a concern for this show.

@inkniron - Well, the writing certainly has not helped at all. Smart characters acting stupid because the writers can't figure out how to make the plot move forward. And for the love of everything Flash, no more Iris drama for at least 2 seasons.

@patgreyc - Smart characters acting stupid

Yeah, that's not unique to Flash, or literature in general. If smart characters were smart then there wouldn't be much for them to do. Super geniuses don't cure diseases, people that can move so fast they can cover the globe in moments yet there's still crime, ancient forbidden magic/techniques/technology just left out and easy to find and user friendly, so on and so forth.

Even though Season 6 ended prematurely, it's definitively the best season since Season 2.

Curious where the real Godspeed storyline goes next year and what elements the EP will borrow from the comics to adapt in the show.

that costume is so badass. They couldn't give the Flash's costume that form fitting aesthetic?
