“Paradox” Official Stills, And Mega-Crossover Details

The CW has released the official still images from the second episode of the upcoming season, titled “Paradox”. They include our first look at Tom Felton’s character, Julian Dorn/Julian Albert, and a nice glimpse at Barry and Jay Garrick together. You can see the full batch of photos at Flash TV News.

Also, CBR has revealed the identity of the villains in the CW’s four-series crossover: they’ll be the Dominators, the alien race from DC’s Invasion! storyline. It’s a very ambitious goal, considering the aliens’ creepy and inhuman appearance, and showrunner Marc Guggenheim says “We’re using cutting-edge prosthetics and computer effects to achieve a feature film-quality look which is faithful to Invasion! artist Todd McFarlane’s interpretation of the characters.” So it’ll be interesting to see how they pull it off. There’s no word thus far on what the Dominators will be doing in the episodes, but it’ll probably be big.

“Run Devil Run” Teaser

The CW has released a new teaser for early Season Three of The Flash, called “Run Devil Run”. Looks like it contains scenes from the first episode, and possibly the second.

And here’s the official synopsis for the second episode of the season, titled “Paradox”. It will air on October 11th.

“Paradox”— (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV)

THE AFTERMATH — Barry (Grant Gustin) realizes the effects from Flashpoint are much greater than he thought. Meanwhile, Barry meets new co-worker Julian Albert (Tom Felton) and is surprised by Julian’s immediate disdain for Barry. Ralph Hemecker directed the episode written by Aaron Helbing & Todd Helbing (#302). Original airdate 10/11/2016.

Of note is that Barry’s new co-worker is now called ‘Julian Albert’, whereas he was known as ‘Julian Dorn’ in earlier information. Unless it’s a red herring, this lends credence to the theory that he’ll be Dr Alchemy (Albert Desmond).

“Flashpoint” Official Synopsis

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?

Official Stills From Flash Season Premiere

The CW has released some official still images from The Flash season 3 premiere, which won’t air until October 4th. They offer some quick glimpses at Flashpoint, including Wally West in his new uniform. Check it out!

Also at Arrowverse.TV, someone reports seeing Violett Beane wearing a Jesse Quick costume on set. So it sounds like we’ll be getting a new speedster heroine this season!

Who’s looking forward to Jesse, and the season premiere in a little over a month? Share your thoughts!
