When does The Flash return with new episodes?

With The Flash currently in its final season, fans of the series have been a little surprised that the series has had a couple of weeks off — especially since the series is already operating on a shorter than usual number of episodes. However, the series will return on Wednesday, April 26th with “It’s My Party and I’ll Die If I Want To”, which will see the eagerly anticipated return of Arrow star Stephen Amell as Green Arrow.

“As soon as our final season was announced, we knew we wanted Stephen to come back and reprise his iconic role as Oliver Queen,” The Flash showrunner Eric Wallace said in a statement. “After all, it was Oliver who originally launched Barry Allen on his heroic path. That’s why everyone on Team Flash felt so strongly that it was important to create a full-circle moment with Oliver’s return in the final season of The Flash. The result is an epic-yet-emotional episode we hope Arrowverse fans will enjoy. It’s all to say ‘thank you’ to everyone for watching and supporting our show throughout nine wonderful years. We absolutely cannot wait for everyone to see Grant and Stephen saving the world together again. And yes, there will be thrills, chills and tears.”

The Flash airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on The CW. “A New World, Part Two” airs May 10th.
