-"NOW WHO'S THE VILLAIN, FLASH!"

-Two new major villains - Dr. Alchemy, voiced by Tobin Bell, and a NEW SPEEDSTER (of course).
-Flashpoint WILL be affecting Arrow - Diggle in particular.
-Barry happy for once!
-BARRY DOES HAVE HIS SPEED, according to the Podcast People!
-TomCav remains coy af!
-Tom Felton doesn't know much, or won't say much, either way nothing new - says Julian "ruffles some feathers."
-Tom Felton: "... any character I play you should see as a threat!" Jokes, but claims that in the first 2 episodes there is "friction" between Barry and Julian.
-Flashpoint will "RIPPLE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SEASON."
-JLM and Grant tap dance on stage together. WHAT.

-Danielle is salty that she and Candice don't have enough scenes together (which she has said before more than once).
-JLM wants to do more live performances on the Flash.
-TomCav jokes he wants to get to triple digits in the characters he plays on the show.
-Flashpoint won't affect Legends much, but as mentioned will affect Arrow (suck it, Lesser Amell).
-Felicity will be appearing in 3x02 to give Barry some advice (what kind of season would it be without the obligatory fan service of that Inferior Show).
-Candice wants Iris to head over to Supergirl and to work for CatCo. TASTE-HAVING JOURNALIST QUEEN.

-When it was asked how long it would take for Barry and Iris to ultimately get back together, JLM giggled for approx 30 seconds.

-Flashpoint will maybe not last 'as long as some expect', but ramifications that will last all season.
-Grant and Keiynan having fun together in the first two eps as speedsters.
-TomCav briefly slips into his Christopher Walken impression.
-Barry does NOT have a clear conscience whatsoever!
-Grant says a "LOT of crossovers happening this season, and one big one."
-JLM wants to reunite with Calista Flockhart, aka Cat Grant on Supergirl.

The Cast Talk Crazy Comic Con Experiences with Extra TV. TomCav has given up on sanity.

Talking crazy #ComicCon experiences with @grantgust and @CW_TheFlash cast! 😂 #CWSDCC pic.twitter.com/lhoxYzEosr
- ExtraTV (@extratv) 24 July 2016






-TomCav keeps trying to distract from questions and answer nothing as per.
-TomCav playing Wells this season as "winning, handsome, fast", continues on, reveals he's making it all up as he goes along and isn't going to give any of his secrets away.
-WestAllen and the future thereof discussed briefly. Positive signs for WestAllen stans!
-Carlos' jeans are practically painted on. Not part of the interview, but I paid attention.
-They take photos in the ET booth (one under the cut below).
-Grant wants to know if Reeve Carney (of Penny Dreadful fame) was there earlier.

-What does Flashpoint mean for WestAllen? Barry remembers EVERYTHING, both timelines.
-Flashpoint means Cisco and Caitlin aren't 'themselves' anymore.
-Grant: "you know those first two seasons? We scrapped them." (cue laughter)
-Joe and Barry have a "very different dynamic" than previously, big changes.

-Tom is in charge of all the hazing, says he is STILL hazing Teddy.
-Grant helped Keiynan out on Power Slide/Superhero tips for being a Speedster.
-Candice wants Iris to head over to Supergirl as she'd be the best fit in at CatCo.

Ahem!



-Iris knows Wally is Kid Flash, Joe does not
-Julian Dorn is there BECAUSE of Flashpoint.
-Season 3 picks some time after Season 2 ends, and Barry is happy with life.
-Another speedster comes and gives Barry advice about navigating the new timeline (revealed to be MATTOBARD THAWNE in the later trailer above).
-Joe is on the outs with Iris! For reasons not revealed yet, Joe and Iris not getting along, Joe in a very low place in his life.
-Julian and Barry will have an abrasive relationship - Julian has known Barry and worked at CCPD with him for YEARS, knows him very well... but due to the Flashpoint timeline Barry doesn’t know Julian at all.
-There will be permanent effects on the rest of the show even after Flashpoint.

-It has also been revealed in the Legends of Tomorrow panel that THE LEGION OF DOOM WILL BE THE SEASON 2 ADVERSARY!!
So: Captain Cold, Reverse Flash, Damien Darhk, and Malcolm Merlyn.
-It has been confirmed that Reverse Flash on LoT will be played by Matt Letscher.

{Individual Roundtable Interviews}
Find below the cut the videos and summaries of all the individual cast Roundtable interviews from Nerdophiles.
Some Flashpoint spoilers, lots of evasion!
-Candice charms and is flawless, talks empowerment
-TomCav doesn't give any question a straight answer.
-Carlos talks Flashpoint, Harry and Cisco, and becoming Vibe.
-Tom Felton expresses his gratitude and excitement.
-Keiynan is adorable as per usual.

Candice Patton - Iris West/The Queen
-Talks about Iris being part of a "strong black family" and the social implications of it, importance of empowerment and Black Girl Magic.
-Loved E2 stuff!
-Iris is the fixed point for Barry no matter whch universe or timeline he's in - she'll always be loveable, always be Iris, always be the girl he's in love with.
-Too busy gazing at her perfect face to say much more❤

Keiynan Lonsdale - Wally West/Kid Flash
-Benefitted from his dance background for the choreo.
-Flashpoint Wally VERY content, loves his life, knows his place in the world, very positive.
-Is wearing some fantastic rings.
-Cute anecdotes about Grant helping Keiynan with his suit and process.
-Loves Franz Drameh, would like to interact with Firestorm, but also Killer Frost.

Tom Felton - Julian Dorn
-Watched 30 episodes in 2 weeks, finds it surreal being on set now.
-Has been told there will be a "lot of meat to sink [his] teeth into."
-Feels the show is warm but exciting - makes you feel comfortable watching it.
-Isn't very familiar with DC, but appreciative of the enthusiasm and the hype and quality.
-Loving craft services!
-Feels the same energy on Flash as on Harry Potter - fun to be there.
-Talks up his love for Grant.
-Starts giggling after Grant touches the back of his head in passing- "Barry just touched me!"

Tom Cavanagh - Harrison Wells/Eobard Thawne/Reverse Flash/Harry Wells/Savior of Earth-2/OP's Husband
-Likes that the show isn't afraid to "break some eggs" and mine some big themes and characters.
-Likes the reinvention of his role in the show, and the differing relationships with other characters.
-Says absolutely nothing, answers nothing, talks a mile a minute as per usual.
-"Reinvention is a phenomenal privilege."
-Evasive!
-Wanted the audience to only see Harry as a good guy when "cast in Jesse's light", abrasive and malcontent otherwise, that he's just a man on a mission with a pulse rifle to save his daughter.

image Click to view



Carlos Valdes - Cisco Ramon/Vibe
-Seeing effervescent happy Cisco in Flashpoint? "NOT AT ALL."
-Finds it tough letting go of the qualities that make Cisco resonate with the audience, but enjoys finding the new colours to the character who remains who he is at the core.
-Talks Cisco's insecurities and reluctance to admit his heroism, and that he views his powers as being traced back to the "father figure who betrayed him" - TRAUMA.
-Talks discovering the Harry/Cisco dynamic, came about through improv and adlibbing.
-Talks the fans loving that dynamic and the only ones who love it more are the writers... says that going forward that pursuing that dynamic will be "TOO HARD TO RESIST."

Danielle Panabaker - Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost
-Knew six weeks before the start of filming season 2 that Jay was actually Joom, and about the Caitlin/Jay/Joom relationship.
-Likes Caitlin's vulnerability, wishes she wasn't so sad though.
-Would like to see Caitlin focus on herself, not needing a man or romance.
-Wants to add a more scientific dimension to Caitlin, but can only suggest to the writers, 'jokes' that she isn't listened to be TPTB.
-Would LOVE to go work on Supergirl, jealous of Grant, talks about how there aren't many women on Flash but thinks the Supergirl women are incredible.

Grant Gustin - Barry Allen/The Flash
-Barry the only one who remembers the other timeline, still has his poers but not using them.
-Barry "never has a clear conscience", will be feeling guilty and realising how selfish it was.
-Barry will start to have memories of his parents that he missed, but they will be replacing other memories from the original timeline.
-Barry is sitting back and letting Wally be The Flash, but is then forced to step into action at Flashpoint - at this point he sees what everyone else's life has become and starts to feel guilt.
-The emotion of Runaway Dinosaur "messed with" him at a very deep level, difficult.
-Barry realises that Flashpoint was not for the best, realises he needs to try and put things back.
-Knows something BIG about the crossover, but can't.



{This Week On: 'The Flash Cast Doing Stuff & Things On Social Media' @ SDCC...}
