When does flash season 7 come out

The Flash's sixth season was unexpectedly cut short last year due to the outbreak of COVID-19, leaving more than a few storylines still up in the air. However, Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Team Flash are ready to hit the ground running (pun intended) in Season 7. While Season 6 left off on an unexpected and unconventional season finale, the cliffhanger was still effective. Iris' (Candice Patton) Mirrorverse arc, Barry's synthetic Speed Force, and Eva's (Efrat Dor) evil plans for Blackhole were all unresolved. Thanks to a new Season 7 trailer and some hints from showrunner Eric Wallace, a little light has now been shed on the upcoming season.

Here's everything we know so far about The Flash Season 7.

It will return in March. TV Guide can confirm that The Flash Season 7 will premiere on Tuesday, March 2 at 8/7c. That's more than a month after a few of the other CW shows return, but the superhero show does require more special effects in every episode than most shows.

The Flash has already been renewed for Season 8: The CW announced on Wednesday, Feb. 3 that The Flash and 11 other series are renewed for the 2021-22 TV season.

Chillblaine is the villain of Season 7: Shadowhunters alum Jon Cur has joined the cast of Season 7 in the recurring role of Mark Stevens, aka Chillblaine. According to the character description, first obtained by TV Line, Stevens is a roguish charmer by day and a thief by night, using cryogenic technology to freeze and break into safes.

Production began in October. Deadline reports Season 7 began filming on Oct. 1 in Vancouver. The studio put safety rules in place and required a two week self-isolation period before filming began on all Vancouver-based shows.

Season 6 storylines will be wrapped up in Season 7. The Flash Season 6 ended on a bit of a cliffhanger, with Iris vanishing in the Mirror World after seemingly developing some mirror powers. Grant Gustin confirmed on The Flash cast's Stars in the Houseappearance that we will get our answers in the new season. "Everything that was kind of left in the air at the end of season six we're going to tie up at the beginning of Season 7 and then continue on with what the writers have planned," Gustin said.

Hartley Sawyer will not return. Sawyer, who plays Team Flash member Ralph Dibmy (aka Elongated Man) was fired from the series in June after a number of his old racist and misogynistic tweets resurfaced. Showrunner Eric Wallace took immediate action, saying the tweets made him "mad as hell." 

Showrunner Eric Wallace toldEntertainment Weekly, "We're giving the Elongated Man a bit of a rest for a while. But we will leave the door open. I'm not saying by any means that it's the end of the character. In fact, quite the opposite. We just don't know when he will return, or in what form he will return." Wallace also revealed Ralph will make an appearance in the beginning of Season 7 to help send the character off, but he will not be played by Sawyer. "Now thank goodness, Ralph is a guy who can change faces and his appearance in many ways. Without giving any spoilers away, there are a couple of ways that we can have Elongated Man still appear in at least one episode this season to wrap that storyline up, that gets us what we need and still allows fans to say goodbye to the character, at least for the indefinite future"

This won't be the end of Sue Dearbon (Natalie Dreyfuss) though. Wallace has confirmed that despite Ralph's departure, we haven't seen the last of his love interest, Sue. "I called up Natalie and said, 'Don't worry, you're still going to be part of this season. We'll find a way.' Now, when I told her that, to be honest, I wasn't quite sure [how]. But I am happy to report we found a way," Wallace told Entertainment Weekly. "You're going to see Sue more than once this year even without the Elongated Man — on her own, making appearances, and helping Team Flash in an unexpected way. And it's just going to be hilarious because she was so much fun."

If you’ve been waiting on The Flash season 7 to land on Netflix, you’re in luck! The seventh season of the hit superhero show on The CW is finally coming to the streamer in a couple of days.

It’s been a long wait due to the season being stretched out over the course of The CW’s 2020-2021 television schedule thanks to the pandemic.

Spoilers ahead for The Flash season 6 and 7

When we last left off with The Flash, Iris was still trapped in Mirror Monarch’s mirror world trying to find a way out. Barry had caught on to the fact that the woman wearing his wife’s face wasn’t actually the woman he’s been in love with since he was 9 years old.

In season 7, we’re in for a fight for the two to be reunited as they each work to stop Mirror Monarch from destroying the world as they know it. However, that won’t be their only concern as the season progresses.

Something has gone wrong with the force. No, we’re not mixing our franchises up. The Speed Force has gone through a lot over the course of this series, but Barry and Team Flash are in for a challenge they could have never imagined.
