If we had to pick one upcoming show that we absolutely can’t wait for, it’s hands down The Flash!
The superhero spin-off of Arrow, based on the comic book of the same name, stars Grant Gustin in the title role.
And because we got an early glimpse at the pilot, we can assure you he was the perfect casting choice for our favorite Central City crime scene investigator Barry Allen, who gets struck by lightening and becomes the fastest man in the world.
He even gets a little crash course in saving the world from his personal idol The Arrow (Stephen Amell) in the first episode.
We recently caught up with Grant and his co-stars Danielle Panabaker, Carlos Valdes, Rick Cosnett, and Jesse L. Martin, all of whom gave JJJ some fun scoop about what to expect and opened up about how they got ready for their big roles.
Grant told us, “I was excited about this when they announced they were doing it, before I auditioned for it.”
“I have been reading the comics,” Carlos said. “I’ve been immersing myself in this world. I can’t get enough of it.”
“They gave them to me, but because my character doesn’t know any of stuff, I’d rather not know,” Jesse said of his character, Detective West.
Rick added, “I didn’t [know] much at all, but once auditioned and I did a lot of research. I was never into comic books when I was younger, but I got it. I get it. They’re so beautiful and epic, and there’s so much art to them. And a picture says a thousand words, you know?”
