It worked out on Arrow. I liked the Grant guy on there and I hope they pull a bit from each other, I am sure we will get a Queen cameo in that show quickly.

I've got high hopes for it.

Honestly does not look good. I hope I'm wrong.

He looks like the Rocketeer w/o a rocket pack

More Set Images of Grant Gustin in Full Costume for THE FLASH

I don't think the Flash lends itself well to the live-action format. Super speed just seems impossible to do well in live-action; unless they're willing to invest significant money every week for special effects.

The supporting cast looks really strong for this. Sadly the costume blows and I think the show is going to tank.

Definitely a TV budget costume. Suit looks to cumbersome, bulky and slow for a Flash. Reminds me of motorcycle racing leathers, except the leathers look nicer and faster, and fit better.

Man I'm pretty pissed about the looks of that costume. What were they thinking?

It seriously looks like the daredevil costume and ran it over with a truck then put a flash symbol on it.

I've seriously have made a better costume.

Vibe & Killer Frost (neither with powers) made their TV debut tonight on Arrow.

Vibe & Killer Frost (neither with powers) made their TV debut tonight on Arrow.

Seeing Panabaker's Caitlin Snow in that episode, I'm kinda hoping she doesn't become "evil" Killer Frost. She's just too cute. She's sort of the DC equivalent of Simmons in Agents of Shield.

The CW Officially Picks Up THE FLASH with a 13-Episode Order

The CW have picked up Andrew Kreisberg and Greg Berlanti’s Arrow spinoff The Flash to series. The series will presumably get an initial 13-episode order with the possibility of picking up a back nine if the first half of the season is a success (as did Arrow and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in their first seasons).

Barry Allen — who gains super speed and dons a costume as the superhero The Flash — first appeared in the two-part midseason finale of Arrow in late 2013. The character was expected to appear again, and experience the accident that granted him powers, in the season’s twentieth episode in April, but the midseason finale episodes were so well-received and highly-rated that the network elected to simply give the character his own full pilot rather than the “backdoor pilot” treatment they had planned for Arrow.

The series will star Glee‘s Grant Gustin as Barry Allen/The Flash, a Central City CSI who works with S.T.A.R. Labs to help manage his powers. Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes) and Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker) will be the S.T.A.R. scientists closest to him, and they have already appeared on Arrow as well (in the aforementioned Episode 20).

That's awesome, I hope it sort of bounces off Arrow a bit here and there.

 

[MardyBum]

Yeah I'm hoping for a Buffy/Angel type deal.

 

[Dragonlordxxxxx]

Just one small remark.
Your update states March 8, It should May 8.

Thanks.

On Arrow, Slade Wilson was a good guy for a season and a half, so there's no reason for her to become a villain in the foreseeable future

First Poster for The CW's THE FLASH Starring Grant Gustin

 

[streets ahead]

Interested to see how they do the speed effects.

 

[BryanIam]

This show will get dunked

 

[taurus]

wow, this looks so bad... i mean, this leathery non-tight look kind of works with Arrow but for Flash? Hell no.

Spiderman approach would look much better, but that's just like, my opinion man...
