3. Wally West
Wally West, another speedster and nephew of Iris West, who goes by the name Kid Flash and later takes on The Flash mantle, is coming to Central City in Season 2. He'll be played by The Divergent Series' Keiynan Lonsdale, but not much else is known about what The CW's take on the character will be like. It is expected that he will be from Earth-2, and the assumption with him is that he'll be a rather heroic character, or at least one who doesn't have bad intentions even if he hasn't developed powers yet. If they wanted to really put a twist on things, though, then having him as the villain would be a way to do that. Rather than him becoming The Flash, he becomes an evil speedster from another dimension, one who was hurt or corrupted by that world's Barry Allen, and now he's on the hunt for all the speedsters, in particular Barry, to get revenge.

A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
