The CW has released photos for its Season 9 premiere, “Wednesday Every After”. The episode, which kicks off the final season of the long-running Arrowverse series, will debut on Wednesday, February 8th. The episode is The Flash’s own take on Groundhog Day, if you will, with the episode synopsis teasing a day repeating itself for Barry and Iris, but the episode also seems to be setting up one of the season’s new big bads for the heroes to face as well. You can check out the official synopsis for the episode for yourself below.
“SEASON PREMIERE – Barry (Grant Gustin) creates a map book to guide him and Iris (Candice Patton) throughout their future in order to keep her safe, but the results are not what he expected, and instead, they relive the same day over and over again. Joe (Jesse L. Martin) has a heart-to-heart with Cecile (Danielle Nicolet). A new big bad is introduced to Team Flash and friends and foes, old and new, begin to descend upon Central City. Vanessa Parise directed the episode with story by Eric Wallace and teleplay by Thomas Pound & Sarah Tarkoff.”
