Keiynan Lonsdale's Kid Flash Heads to 'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' as Series Regular

Although he said that Wally Wast wasn’t leaving The Flash, Keiynan Lonsdale just got promoted to a series regular on DC’s Legends of Tomorrow.

EW reports that Kid Flash will be heading to the series during episode 11, and then be promoted to a full team member by episode 13.

EP Phil Klemmer released a statement on the show jump for Keiynan, saying, “We loved working with Keiynan in our series premiere – the episode in which we learned that in between seasons 2 and 3 he had been fighting crime in Central City with Nick Zano‘s Nate Heywood.”

“So when his character stepped away from Flash to go on walkabout, after being dumped and feeling somewhat estranged from his family and team, we knew that Wally West would fit in perfectly on Legends.”

He adds, “After all, our show is about a collection of unlikely heroes who all began their journeys questioning who they are and where they belong – only to find those answers while traveling through time and having wacky adventures.”

“Wally West is not only back in the company of old friends from the Arrowverse, he’s fighting alongside a former enemy and career arsonist Mick Rory/Dom Purcell. By the end of this season, Wally will learn that the Legends have a different definition of what it means to be a hero.”

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow will return on Monday, February 12th at 8PM ET/PT on The CW.
