Since its premiere on February 8, 2023, season 9 of The Flash has already aired four episodes and is just two weeks from its halfway mark. The last season of The Flash marks the end of Barry Allen’s story and of Earth-Prime in the Arrowverse.
Making it the longest-running Arrowverse show on the CW, the final season consists of 13 episodes, and we now have the release date for the last season’s finale. According to TV Line, the CW has set May 24, 2023, as the premiere of the show’s last episode. The confirmation was coupled with Candice Patton’s announcement regarding her last day on set.
The Flash’s latest episode marked the defeat of evil Ryan, but there’s so much more to look forward to in the next nine episodes, especially after the unmasking of Red Death. Ryan’s evil speedster isn’t the last one slated to appear since we know that Nora West-Allen and Wally West are returning.
Set photos have also given us a glimpse at Savitar and Godspeed’s return, even though it remains unclear how they come back. Reverse-Flash and Zoom will also make an appearance, and we’re pretty sure Rick Cosnett will serve as the main antagonist in the upcoming episodes.
Many old faces from all over the Arrowverse and previous seasons of the CW show will return to the final season. Apart from Jay Garrick, Kid Flash, and XS, Oliver Green (Stephen Amell) and John Diggle (David Ramsey) will also visit Barry’s Earth to help the Scarlet Speedster one last time.
The May release for the season finale means that there will be some long hiatuses between the last season’s episodes. But The Flash will continue to return on the CW till May 24, 2023, at 5 P.M. PDT. So, fasten your seatbelts and join Barry Allen in his final race!
