The Flash gets off to an explosive start when we’re introduced to new villain Despero, a powerful telepathic alien (played by Tony Curran) whose arrival threatens the lives of everyone our hero cares about.
Adding to Barry’s woes is the return of his arch-nemesis Eobard Thawne, so our lightning-fast friend is hoping for a little backup. Enter DC superheroes The Atom (Brandon Routh), Sentinel (Chyler Leigh), Batwoman (Javicia Leslie) and more, who’ll suit up to help The Flash defeat these evil adversaries and avert apocalypse.
Carlos Valdes left the show last season when his character Cisco moved to Star City. Otherwise, we should see the return of all the main cast. That includes Candice Patton as intrepid journalist and wife Iris West-Allen, Danielle Panabaker in the role of Caitlin Snow, Jesse L. Martin as Central City PD Joe West, and Jessica Parker Kennedy, Barry’s future daughter and a fellow speed freak.
Metahumans, multiple timelines, and now an epic, villains vs. superheroes smackdown. Brace yourself as we explain how to watch The Flash online and stream every season 8 episode from anywhere in the world.
