It has officially been 10-years since Grant Gustin first appeared as the superhero The Flash, in the Arrowverse -- though his first appearance showcased the character being anything but "super"; regardless, the character was introduced a full decade-ago -- which is bewildering.
Surely playing such a prominent role for a whole decade has its own collection of fun memories; Grant Gustin has recently been candid in a video about his favorite aspect of playing the Scarlet Speedster at GalaxyCon Colombus, Ohio, 2023.
Check it out!
Video credits go to @flashfacts4real:
The actor concedes to his most favorite aspect of playing the iconic DC hero as being part of the "legacy" -- while of course expressing his immense gratitude toward the years of fortune since then, that the CW-series has brought him and his family.
Gustin has no plans to race his way back into the DC universe just yet -- though James Gunn has admitted he is a fan of Gustin's portrayal as Barry Allen/The Flash -- and had even casually messaged the actor not too long ago.
There may well be a chance Gustin can return for Superman & Lois season 4, as showrunner Todd Helbing previously helmed the same title for The Flash series -- and has expressed interest in fitting the character in for the final season.
