The Flash TV series returns from hiatus next week, and the CW has released some official stills from the the episode! It’s titled “The Once And Future Flash”, and one of the images can be seen above. The rest (including some behind-the-scenes photos of Tom Cavanagh directing the episode) are available at Superhero Hype.
“The Once and Future Flash”
TOM CAVANAGH DIRECTS; BARRY TRAVELS TO THE FUTURE TO SAVE IRIS – Barry (Grant Gustin) travels to the future to find out Savitar’s still unknown identity in the hopes of saving Iris (Candice Patton). Upon his arrival in 2024, Barry encounters future versions of his Team Flash friends, who, following the death of Iris, have become very different people, profoundly impacted by their showdown with Savitar. It will be up to Barry to infuse a sense of hope back into the team, as he proves to be hero his future friends have been waiting for. Meanwhile, back in 2017, the hunt for Killer Frost (Danielle Panabaker) continues.
Tom Cavanagh directed the episode written by Carina Adly MacKenzie (#319). Original airdate 4/25/2017.
I’m hoping the Gold belt and arm straps are going to become part of the regular costume by Season 4 (Maybe with a a brighter red (Ollie seems to get Darker every season on Arrow….Barry should get lighter and closer to his comic book look (by 2024 i hope we see him in his Gold boots with wing tips!)
Yeah, for sure. I’d really like to see Barry get a brighter costume sooner rather than later, although I guess I’ve gotten used to this one. The show certainly seems to be hinting that he will someday, but I hope they aren’t stringing us along with hope.
With Ollie I think the darker outfit makes sense, because this season’s definitely been exploring his dark side. It’d be nice to see a lighter Ollie, but at this point I’m not sure it’d make sense for his character development. He’s messed up and done terrible things, and there may be no coming back from that. Barry’s made mistakes and suffered the consequences for them, but he’s never been a serial killer who skinned a guy for practice.
