FANS are eagerly awaiting the return of The Flash, with season seven set to test the band of superheroes in a major way.
Season six featured plenty of twists and turns – not to mention a gigantic cliffhanger, so season seven is expected to have plenty of action.
The newest season of The Flash will feature all the stars of season six with the notable exception of Hartley Sawyer, who played Ralph Dibny/Elongated Man on series since 2017.
He was fired from the show after racist and homophobic remarks he made surfaced on his now-deleted Twitter.
Barry Allen is a crime scene investigator at the Central City Police Department who also protects the city as the superhero Flash.
Taking on this lead role is Grant Gustin.
Before landing the part he had a recurring role as Sebastian in Glee.
Iris West-Allen is the founder of the Central City Citizen and a leader of Team Flash at S.T.A.R. Labs.
She is also Barry’s wife.
Candice shot to fame in The Flash, but before that she had a recurring role in The Game.
Her character Iris has also popped up in fellow superhero shows like Supergirl and Batwoman.
Caitlin Snow is a bioengineer and one of S.T.A.R. Labs’ resident scientists.
She is also the metahuman Killer Frost, who actually inherited her superpowers.
Danielle began acting as a teenager and came to prominence for her roles in the Disney films Stuck in the Suburbs (2004), Sky High (2005) and Read It and Weep (2006).
Cisco Ramon is a mechanical engineering but really a jack of all trades.
In addition to working with S.T.A.R. Labs, he was also the superhero Vibe until he took the metahuman cure.
Before landing the part of Cisco, actor Carlos was mainly known for his work on the theatre.
His other TV work included starring in Arrow.
Joe West is a Central City detective who’s also Iris and Wally’s father as well as Barry’s foster father.
Prior to starring on The Flash, Jesse spent nearly 10 years playing Detective Ed Green on Law & Order and its spinoff shows.
Like Carlos he is known for his theatre work.
Cecile Horton is the Central City district attorney who is in a relationship with Joe West and has a child with him.
Actress Danielle is a veteran of the small screen, since her rise to fame in the 90s.
This even included a role in Third Rock From The Sun.
Like Danielle, Tom is also well known on TV.
He is known for a variety of roles including the leading role in Ed.
The Flash is a spin-off from Arrow, so as expected takes place in the Arrowverse.
It centres around Grant Gustin, a superhero crime scene investigator who can move at super-human speed.
The following synopsis has been provided by The CW for season seven:
“After a thrilling cliffhanger last season which saw the new Mirror Master (Efrat Dor) victorious and still-at-large in Central City, The Flash must regroup in order to stop her and find a way to make contact with his missing wife, Iris West-Allen (Candice Patton)…
“Flash will ultimately defeat Mirror Master. But in doing so, he’ll also unleash an even more powerful and devastating threat on Central City: one that threatens to tear his team—and his marriage—apart.”
Since the previous series was curtailed because of the pandemic, the episodes planned for the end of season six have been incorporated into the beginning of season seven.
The seventh season of The Flash premiered on The CW on March 2, 2021.
