The Flash: 10 Major Predictions For Season 3

3. A Third Version Of Harrison Wells

The Flash Harry Wells
The CW

Once again, some way, somehow, Tom Cavanagh will be back as Harrison Wells. So far Cavanagh as played three diferent characters on the show: he's pretended to be Harrison Wells, really been Eobard Thawn/Reverse-Flash, and then was Earth-2 'Harry' Wells.

He brings something different to each iteration, and is one of the greatest things about the show. So it's great news that he's coming back again, but we don't know in what form.

There's a very good chance we'll be seeing Earth-2 Wells return at some point, but even before that we're likely to see Cavanagh. Flashpoint means everything changed, and who knows what Wells - and/or what Cavanagh - we're going to be seeing, but it's likely to be yet another take on the character, and something new for the actor to do once more.

If this keeps up the trend, then the show having Cavanagh play a different iteration of Wells every single season until the show gets cancelled/ends isn't the worst thing they could do.
