Fans of “The Flash” are used to sitting through entire seasons while they try to solve a big mystery, and for the past 3 seasons the mystery has revolved around the villain’s identity. The Thinker will be the villain in season 4, and Team Flash won’t be trying to figure out his identity, but it was recently confirmed that they will be trying to figure out his plan, and that will be one of the big mysteries of the season.

However, The Thinker’s plan won’t be the only mystery in season 4, because executive producer Andrew Kreisberg recently confirmed to TV Insider that there will be another big mystery surrounding The Elongated man and how he got his powers. When talking about how The Elongated Man got his powers, Kreisberg said, “That’s one of the big mysteries of the season.”
His origin won’t be the only point of contention between Ralph Dibny and Team Flash, as it’s also been teased that his arrogance could cause some issues.
“There’s going to be a lot of conflict between them in terms of how to be a good guy,” Kreisberg previews. “Ralph is hitting on everybody all the time. He’s brash and loud and doesn’t listen.”
“The Flash” season 4 will premiere 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.
