The CW has released the official synopsis for the season premiere of The Flash, titled “Flashpoint”. It’ll air on October 4th.
WHAT WOULD YOU SACRIFICE TO HAVE EVERYTHING YOU’VE EVER WANTED? — Barry (Grant Gustin) is living his dream life – his parents are alive, he’s asked Iris West (Candice Patton) on a date and he can finally be a normal guy as Central City has another speedster, Kid Flash (Keiynan Lonsdale), running around saving the city. When Barry starts forgetting parts of his old life, the Reverse Flash (guest star Matt Letscher) taunts his nemesis and tells him that there will be serious repercussions for Barry and the ones he loves if he continues to live in this alternate universe. In addition to losing his memories, his powers will also start to fade. When disaster strikes, Barry must decide if he wants to continue to live in this world as Barry Allen or return to his universe as The Flash.
The Flash season three premiere, “Flashpoint,” will air on October 4 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
In other news, Kevin Smith accidentally (or not-so-accidentally) let slip that the episode he’ll be directing will be titled “Killer Frost”. That’s rather interesting, considering Danielle Panabaker firmly said that Killer Frost is dead when I saw her at Fan Expo a few weeks ago. Smith’s episode will be the seventh of the season.
The season premiere is less than three weeks away! Who’s looking forward to it?
Really looking forward to this episode, it won’t be a perfect adaptation of the comic we know and love of course but the promos look good and definitely has me excited for season 3.
This actually sounds more like an adaption of Alan Moore’s Superman story “For the Man Who Has Everything” except with the Flash in the place of SM and Peter Parker in the role of Barry Allen (especially with the resurrection of the dead parents).
