Candice Patton Talks About Getting The Role of The Flash's Iris West: 'It Felt Surreal'

Candice Patton absolutely stuns in her new cover story for Grumpy magazine.

The 31-year-old Flash actress is talking all about the moment the role of Iris West came to her, rejection, and much more. Check it:

On landing the role of Iris West on The Flash: “I remember the email [my manager] said, ‘this one is yours, you’re perfect for it.’ It didn’t seem like it was thrown my way. I got home for Christmas in Texas, [and] I really thought it was dead in the water for me. I came back in the new year and they wanted me to come back in. Within two days, I had the job, and it felt surreal.”

On using her platform for good: “I do think it’s important if you have means, whether that’s money of a platform, to do something with it. I have a little bit of that so it’s my honor to find things and projects that I’m passionate about, and to use whatever I have to help those projects. [With Shethority], There is so much negativity online and I know women and girls are constantly dealing with so much standards of beauty that are absolutely insane. We wanted to create a space for our fans to feel empowered and recognized and to give them a voice.”

On dealing with rejection: “I worked on having a thick skin, being comfortable hearing the word ‘no’ and just continuing to work. The jobs will come if you constantly focus on getting better and doing better.”

Candice Patton's Natural Curls Will Be Part of 'The Flash's New Season

Candice Patton's Natural Curls Will Be Part of 'The Flash's New Season

Just last week, Candice Patton shared a fierce new selfie with her natural curls and fans totally loved it!

Turns out, her curls will have a big part in the upcoming season of The Flash, too.

“It’s a big deal,” Candice told TVLine. “I’m happy we were able to do something small that has such large impact.”

Showrunner Eric Wallace added that “there’s a reason her hair is that way in the story, and it has to do with fun, and Iris just being herself, and letting the character show more sides of who she is.”

He continues, “It’s also about letting Candice show more sides of who she is as a person and as an actress, which is something I support 100 percent. I love her hair that way. I wouldn’t be surprised to see it more than once that way this season.”

Candice actually inspired a lot of other fans to show off their natural curls after she posted hers, and after seeing their pics, decided to show her own when she was a young girl, too. Check that out here!

Candice Patton Dishes On Introducing More Female Friendships On 'The Flash' In Season 6

Female friendships are going to be a big focus on the upcoming season of The Flash, especially when it comes to Iris’s new paper.

Candice Patton opened up about the new season recently, revealing that while hiring for her newspaper staff, Iris will be bringing in several female hires.

“Iris is hiring a whole team of people to get this off the ground,” Candice shared with press. “Kamilla [Hwang] will be shooting photography for Iris and will be back in the mix, around at the paper. It’s definitely going to be a set and storyline we visit often in Season 6.”

She added that the new staff at the paper will allow Iris to step into a new role as a mentor.

“There’s definitely a few females that she hires, that she definitely has a bond with. I think it’s more of like a mentor, mentee kind of relationship,” Candice continued. “These younger women that she’s kind of bringing up in the world of journalism and looking after.”

“I think there are going to be much more of those kind of female friendships, especially in the workplace, which I’m really excited about.”

The Flash returns in October on The CW.

Candice Patton & Grant Gustin Don't Want You To Worry About Barry & Iris Splitting Up on 'The Flash'

Candice Patton & Grant Gustin Don't Want You To Worry About Barry & Iris Splitting Up on 'The Flash'

Candice Patton and Grant Gustin pose for a picture together during The Flash cast’s signing session during 2019 Comic-Con over the weekend in San Diego, Calif.

The two stars were joined by their co-stars Hartley Sawyer, Danielle Panabaker, Tom Cavanagh, and Carlos Valdes for the meet and greet event with fans.

Just after the show’s panel earlier in the day, Candice and Grant opened up about the future of WestAllen and how you shouldn’t be worried about them splitting up at all.

“We’re pretty much still dealing with the shock of it [losing Nora], and Barry is trying aggressively to be optimistic and move forward and probably, to a fault, not dealing with it in all the way he should be dealing with it,” Grant shares about what’s going on in the couple’s lives right now.

Candice added, “I think you’ll see kind of early on, Iris kind of questions how they’re both dealing with it. They really talk about what the appropriate way is to kind of grieve Nora so that they can move forward in a positive way and get back to Team Flash, and do it in a way so that they can sustain themselves as a married couple.”

And if you’ve been worried about a divorce coming, don’t – “There’s tension, but we are coming closer in some ways too,” Grant says.

“It’s good marital tension, where it’s like, you’re not afraid of them getting divorced, but they’ve got stuff to work out, you know?” Candice shared.

FYI: Candice is wearing a Camilla and Marc dress.
