The season finale of CW's The Flash is set to air tonight and series star Grant Gustin spoke with TV Guide to offer up a tease of what we may see in the show's sophomore season; it's a little something that DC fans may be familiar with: the multiverse.
What's fun about this show is that there's going to be multiple timelines as we move forward, I think we're going to start showing Earth-One and Earth-Two in the near future. There will be kind of different dimensions going on.
While Earth-One and Earth-Two are only several of the many alternate worlds that populate the DC multiverse, it definitely opens up a lot of possibilities for a show that has already started to play with the timeline in big ways. Series co-star Carlos Valdés also teased that we're likely to be in for a bit of a complicated timeline when The Flash returns this fall:
It gets a little Rubik’s Cube-y in terms of keeping consistency between all these timelines and whatnot, but the writers have their stuff together. If I were to trust anyone, it would be them.
Bigger comic fans than I will be able to theorize what these developments will bring about but it seems that The Flash will show no signs of slowing down during season two.The season finale, titled Fast Enough, airs tonight and Grant Gustin teased that Barry's trip to the past "doesn't necessarily go as planned." Ruh oh. Make sure to check back later for Lauren Bradshaw's review of the season finale.
