The Flash Season 9 Officially Confirmed By The CW
The Flash has officially been renewed for season 9 at The CW. The renewal joins a host of other shows getting the early re-upping treatment. The Flash, (or Barry Allen in his civilian life) portrayed in the series by Grant Gustin, is a classic DC hero with super speed and a heart of gold, and the series first aired on The CW in October of 2014. It joins the likes of Kung Fu, Nancy Drew, Riverdale, Superman & Lois, and Walker in this wave of early renewals for the network's shows.
In the previous season, Gustin's Flash dealt with the «Armageddon» event, where Barry was targeted by Despero (played by Tony Curran) and subjected to the Reverse-Flashpoint, an event where he traded places with one of his most dangerous villains, Eobard Thawne, the Reverse-Flash, played by Matt Letscher. After repairing the Reverse-Flashpoint, Barry strips Thawne of his powers and re-imprisons the villain at Iron Heights Penitentiary. The season also leaves Neal McDonough's Damien Darhk in the position of giving a Time Stone to Jesse L. Martin's Joe West.
