Barry Allen’s race for justice begins tonight on The Flash.

 

Grant Gustin plays forensic scientist turned Scarlet Speedster in the new series based on the DC Comics hero.

 

As the star explains the story is more than Allen finding his identity but finding a killer.

 

“Well, the big arc is Barry is trying to prove his father’s innocence and get him out of prison and catch who really killed his mom. That’s his main goal—that’s the main arc of the season. But also we’re developing our cast of regulars. ‘Cause in the pilot it’s a lot of Barry and gave kind of a bland shape to some of the characters. So we’re going places right out of the gate and developing everyone that’s on the show. And we’re getting new bad guys pretty much, I think, every episode so far—all 9 episodes there’s a new villain from the rogues’ gallery. And they’re giving them origin stories that have never existed or they’re kind of brand new ideas that are creating a pretty close depiction of this rogues that have been in the comics,” Gustin told DC.

 

The Flash premieres tonight at 8pm on The CW.
