Details about The Flash Season 9

As is the norm with CW, the network refrained from revealing too much about the upcoming season of its marquee show. However, specific information has been confirmed. The new season will feature some characters from the Arrowverse, specifically those from previously canceled shows.

Javicia Leslie, who starred as Ryan Wilder in Batwoman, is one of the characters rebooted into the universe with the new season of The Flash. Moreover, she is slated to play a double role. Apart from returning as Batwoman, Wilder will also play a "mystery character," according to the CW statement.

However, sources confirmed that the Batwoman actress would also play the role of DC villain, Red Death. Besides Wilder, Supergirl's Nicole Maines will return for the new season as Nia Nal, a.k.a. Dreamer.

The ninth episode of The Flash will feature one of the most-anticipated cameos of all time, Stephen Amell's Green Arrow. The same episode will also feature Kid Flash, Bloodwork, and Arrow's John Diggle.

As for the primary plotline, Barry Allen will face a significant threat from the league of Rogues, which could feature Red Death leading the offensive. There could also be other major antagonists in the show, including the new avatar of the Negative Speed Force.

Earlier, showrunner Eric Wallace spoke to Deadline and hinted at the plot of season 9, saying:

"The next thing is, what’s in the box, right? [Laughs] Oh, I’m not gonna tell you that. Tune in [for] Season 9 and you will find out immediately what’s in the box. The big clue as to what’s in the box is the voice. That is Danielle Panabaker’s voice, so some version of Danielle Panabaker’s coming out of that box. The question is, which one? Let the debate begin because there’s many ways to go."

More details about the new season of The Flash will soon begin to pop up. Till then, stay tuned for more updates.
