ReplyDeletefitting role lol
ReplyDeletei thought he would play the first flash but it's pretty awesome he's playing his father, sort of passing the torch
ReplyDeleteMmm...I think theirs more to the role though. If he's just Barry's father then why hide it?
ReplyDeletethey could use him as a future Barry allen in the future.... like 40 years later
ReplyDeleteIt was already obvious who he would play especially when you watch the Extended Preview.
ReplyDeletewe are going to see Flashback from Barrick's life ¿?
ReplyDeletePeople figured it out from the trailer, but it's really cool that he has a role on The Flash and that it's Barry's jailed dad, I'm sure he'll be great.
ReplyDeleteHA! "Top Secret" That was the worst Top secret-secret ever. LOL...And nice! His father, i like that.
