The upcoming episode of CW Network's superhero action series, 'The Flash' will be exploring the concepts of time travel in such a way that it will certainly change things. Spoilers also tease the debut of a new villain.
In a report by the Inquistr, Grant Gustin who plays the titular role revealed that the upcoming episodes will be "wild" when it comes to the exploration of time travel. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg teased that the episode entitled, "All-Star Team-up" will explore the 'bad and the good' of time travel.
"There's an episode coming up where there is inadvertent connection to the Speed Force that results in probably our funniest hour as well as our darkest hour as the dangers of time travel come to light. It's a mashup between Back to the Future and Terminator - the good version of time travel and the bad version of time travel." Kreisberg said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
Gustin also added that Barry [The Flash] was going to be bothered by time travel, and he was going to be the only one that knows what's going on.
"He's not handling it incredibly well. It's freaking him out a little bit." Gustin said.
The spoilers also tease that Barry might find out the reason why he was snatched from his mother's house that fateful night. He will also be taken back to the night that his mother was killed by The Reverse Flash in the pilot episode.
"He realizes, 'Holy s-t, this [is] an opportunity to change things with my family's past. He doesn't know yet to maybe not do that, but that's where Barry's at when he realizes what he's just learned that he can do, that he can maybe save his mom." teased Gustin.
Will his doing so leave some major consequences for the future?
TVLine also teased that there will be the debut of a new villain in the persona of Bug-Eyed Bandit,
"bee-a-utiful tech wizard who rocks oversized shades and red lipstick and has devised a clever-slash-amoral-slash-wildly unstable scheme to weaponize bee-sized 'bots." the website said.
