Keiynan Lonsdale as Kid Flash revealed in ‘The Flash’ season 3 poster
Fans get their first look at Kid Flash (Keiynan Lonsdale), the teen sidekick to The Flash (aka Barry Allen, played by Grant Gustin), from the upcoming premiere of The Flash. The episode titled “Flashpoint” premieres Tuesday, October 4 at 8 PM ET on The CW.
The CW will host a panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Saturday July 23 with The Flash stars and executive producers ahead of the Season 3 premiere. Expect more news to come then!
The Flash broke the timeline somehow when he saved his mother in the season two finale after he (Grant Gustin’s Barry) traveled back in time to stop the murder by the Reverse-Flash.
Fans are looking to see Flashpoint, based on a popular comic book story in which Barry Allen wakes up in a horrifying alternate timeline filled with dark, twisted versions of the heroes and villains he knows. The world is at the brink of annihilation as Aquaman and Wonder Woman stage a war that pits their nations against one another with everyday humans trapped in between. And in order to stop all of it, Barry has to discover what altered the past to create this terrible future, and then restore his powers so that he can travel back to change it.
In Flashpoint, Barry has no powers, his mother Nora (deceased in his own timeline) is alive; his father, Henry, died of a heart attack three years ago (instead of in prison). Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) is Central City’s greatest hero while the Justice League and Superman do not exist.
