Grant Gustin Explains What's Next for 'The Flash' After That Tragic Season 5 Death!

Grant Gustin is teasing what’s next on The Flash!

The 29-year-old actor opened up about what fans can expect from Season 6 of the CW hit during an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

“Moving toward the crossover, we’re going to see the impact [losing Barry and Iris’ daughter, Nora] is going to have on the future,” he said. “We’re also going to find out more about the ‘Crisis’ headline in the [future] newspaper and why that date changed [in the Season 5 finale], if the date changed. Heading toward the crossover we’re going to be dealing with that.”

Executive producer Eric Wallace, who is taking over as showrunner, teased an emotional sixth season.

“If Season 4 was a little bit more humor and Season 5 was a little bit more spectacle, in Season 6 we’ll have a little more heart. I want to deepen character emotions,” he told EW.

Eric also revealed that Season 6 will pick up just 10 seconds after the events of Season 5′s tragic finale.

“It allows us to not shy away from the big elephant in the room of Nora passing,” he explained of the decision. “That is something that Barry [played by Grant] and Iris [played by Candice Patton] must deal with in season 6 in order to be the heroes and supportive couple that they are.”

The Flash returns on October 8th on The CW.
