The future of the Arrowverse is headed into new territory, with news that The Flash will be ending after its upcoming ninth season. The long-running series was one of the staples of The CW’s superhero franchise, and it looks like its swan song will be showcasing a lot of familiar faces in the process. It has already been confirmed that Stephen Amell will returning as Oliver Queen / Green Arrow, David Ramsey as John Diggle / Spartan, and Keiynan Lonsdale as Wally West / The Flash. A new photo posted to Ramsey’s Instagram shows the trio uniting alongside Grant Gustin’s Barry Allen / The Flash.
“Congratulations to Team Flash for nine incredible seasons,” Ramsey’s caption reads. “But most importantly.. thank ALL OF YOU for your undying support for this universe. None of this is possible without you! Enjoy the mashup you had no idea you needed!ย #TheFlashFinalSeasonย #ArrowLives!”
