Numerous Arrowverse Characters Are Returning for Final Season of “The Flash” on the CW
The next season of The Flash will be the show’s last but it is also shaping up to be the last rodeo for The CW’s Arrowverse, closing the book on one of DC’s and television’s longest-running franchises. It began with Arrow In 2012, characters from the flagship program will participate in the reunion.
According to Comicbook.com and executive producer Eric Wallace, Expect to see John Diggle. “Kid Flash” Wally West and Ramsey Rosso (aka Bloodwork) come back in episode nine to wrap up any loose ends. Wallace released a statement containing thoughts about the return of all three characters, starting with Diggle who has appeared in more Arrowverse episodes than anyone else.
“As one of the legacy Arrowverse characters who helped start it all, John Diggle holds a special place in our hearts, as well as the fans,” Wallace, “Plus, the commanding presence and commitment to excellence actor/director David Ramsey brings to the screen each and every time is truly inspiring. So…it was a no-brainer to have Diggle join Team Flash in our final season!”

Wallace added, “So, get ready for a very emotional reunion as John Diggle aka Spartan helps protect Central City alongside Team Flash one last time.” Wallace has indicated that there is potential for Diggle actor David Ramsey as a director. Ramsey directed numerous episodes and shows throughout the Arrowverse in recent years, including most recently Legends of Tomorrow
On the return of Keiynan Lonsdale as the Arrowverse’s Wally/Kid Flash, Wallace said, “We’re so happy to reunite with the incredibly talented Keiynan Lonsdale as a part of The Flash’s final season. Because Kid Flash isn’t just another speedster—he’s a beloved part of our Team Flash family. So…we set out to create a special and heartfelt story for his return.”

He continued, “The result is a brilliant performance from Keiynan that showcases a side of Wally West you’ve never seen before.” Wallace’s statement finished talking about Bloodwork who is played by Sendhil Ramamurthy, an actor who would be familiar to fans of NBC’s comic book-inspired action drama Heroes. For all four seasons, he was the geneticist Mohinder Suresh.
“Ever since Sendhil turned in such a brilliantly haunting and unforgettable performance as the tortured Ramsey Rosso in Season Six, we’ve been looking for a way to bring him back,” Wallace added. “We also knew we wanted to have Ramsey play a part in Flash’s final race. Fortunately, everything came together and…Bloodwork’s return will set into motion…the Flash’s wildest…most emotional [adventure] yet.”
Wally, Diggle, and Bloodwork join Javicia Leslie who comes back for the final season to play the Arrowverse’s version of Red Death, as Ryan Wilder/Batwoman stands in for the Earth-52 Bruce Wayne of the Dark Multiverse who drove the Batmobile into The Speed Force with Barry Allen tied to the hood. The two would fuse into one deadly entity controlled by Bruce’s mind.
