When “The Flash” season 3 came to an end, fans were left with a huge cliffhanger that saw Barry Allen sacrifice himself to the Speed Force. Everyone’s been trying to figure out which direction the show will go, and it looks like we could potentially be seeing the return of Barry Allen sooner than later.

Production on “The Flash” is set to resume shortly, and The Flash Production Office is getting ready to start work on season 4. The people behind the Twitter account recently shared a photo which revealed that the season 4 premiere will be titled “The Flash Reborn.”
It looks like someone might have messed up and revealed the title too early, as @FLASHProdOffice disappeared from Twitter shortly after the picture was posted, but it’s still making the rounds online.

Everyone seems to have their own theory on how the show will resolve the cliffhanger from the season 3 finale, and many people seem to believe that Wally West will be taking up the mantle of The Flash. Keiynan Lonsdale recently downplayed the rumor and said switching suits isn’t something that’s on his mind, as Wally still has a lot of growth to do.
If Lonsdale is indeed telling the truth, then the title of the season premiere would seem to indicate that Team Flash will find a way to get Barry back, possibly in the premiere.
“The Flash” will return on Tuesday, October 10.
Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) lived a normal life as a perpetually tardy C.S.I. in the Central City Police Department. Barry’s life changed forever when the S.T.A.R. Labs Particle Accelerator exploded, creating a dark-matter lightning storm that struck Barry, bestowing him with super-speed and making him the fastest man alive — The Flash. But when Barry used his extraordinary abilities to travel back in time and save his mother’s life, he inadvertently created an alternate timeline known as Flashpoint; a phenomenon that gave birth to the villainous speed god known as Savitar, and changed the lives of Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker) and Wally West (Keiyan Lonsdale) forever.
With the help of his adoptive father, Joe West (Jesse L. Martin), his lifelong best friend and love interest Iris West (Candice Patton), and his friends at S.T.A.R. Labs — Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes), C.S.I Julian Albert (Tom Felton), and an Earth-19 novelist named H.R. Wells (Tom Cavanaugh) — Barry continues to protect the people of Central City from the meta-humans that threaten it.
Based on the characters from DC, THE FLASH is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“Arrow,” “Supergirl”), Andrew Kreisberg (“Arrow,” “The Flash”), Sarah Schechter (“Arrow,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”) and Todd Helbing (“Black Sails”).
