10 Best Arrowverse Performances Of 2019

4. Grant Gustin

Supergirl Season 5 Kara Danvers Melissa Benoist
The CW

Show: The Flash

Episode: 'The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Pt 1'

Grant Gustin spent The Flash's first two seasons absolutely amazing fans with his outstanding offerings as the lovable Barry Allen, but as the show moved into more superheroic territory, it meant that we were treated to less of these simply because there were less character-driven offerings. That being said, it all turned around in Season 6's 'The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Pt 1' and, as always, Gustin was nothing short of incredible.

As Barry found himself torn between life in a deadly world or death in a safe one, the young actor brought all of the Scarlet Speedster's fears to life so naturally. From his pained expressions to his erratic behaviour, he personified Barry's desperation to live with a single performance - one that will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the best of his entire career.

Powerhouse doesn't even begin to cover what he accomplished here.
