The Flash EP Tells When Savitar, Dr Alchemy's Identity Will Be Revealed

Much of the third season of The Flash has been devoted to the Scarlet Speedster dealing with Dr. Alchemy restoring other peoples' Flashpoint super-powers in the post-Flashpoint timeline. And like the previous two seasons, the identity of this main villain has been kept a secret, but Executive Producer Greg Berlanti has revealed to EW that we'll "find out who Alchemy is" in the midseason finale.

Aside from Alchemy, the season wouldn't be complete without a villainous speedster (not counting The Rival) for Barry Allen to go up against. This season's evil speedster is Savitar (Hindu word for God of Motion), who spent a lifetime studying velocity and has the ability to lend and steal speed.

So, when will we see him? Actually, we'll see him very soon. "People will have seen him before the crossovers," Berlanti shared. "He appears in episodes 6 and 7."

WALLY HAS VISIONS OF BEING KID FLASH — When Wally (Keiynan Lonsdale) starts having dreams about being Kid Flash, Barry (Grant Gustin) realizes he has to tell Wally, Iris (Candice Patton) and Joe (Jesse L. Martin) about what happened to Wally in Flashpoint in order to keep him safe.

JJ Makaro directed the episode written by Emily Silver & David Kob.

Based on the characters from DC, The Flash is from by Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (Arrow, Supergirl), Andrew Kreisberg (Arrow, The Flash), Sarah Schechter (Arrow, DC's Legends of Tomorrow) and Aaron and Todd Helbing.
