Barry Allen will be entering a weird world when “The Flash” returns for season 3. Wally West will have fully formed powers, Cisco will be rich, he won’t be close with Joe West, and he’ll be back in the friend zone with Iris.
All of this will be happening because Barry went back in time and stopped the Reverse-Flash from killing his mother in the season 2 finale. Because of his actions Barry has created the “Flashpoint” universe, and it’s going to take some getting used to for Mr. Allen.
Both of Barry’s parents are alive now, and the CW has released a new trailer for season 3 that opens with Barry asking his dad what year it is.
The trailer also shows Barry explaining to rich Cisco how he created the “Flashpoint” universe and more. You can check out the latest trailer for season 3 below.
After successfully closing the Singularity from destroying Central City, Barry thinks he’s seen the worst… but the arrival of Jay Garrick (Teddy Sears) reveals that the Singularity actually opened portals to an alternate Earth, known as Earth-2, which is being terrorized by a formidable evil speedster named Zoom. As Zoom sends an army of Earth-Two meta-humans to Earth-1 to defeat Barry, he receives unexpected assistance from the Earth-Two doppelganger of his former mentor, Harrison Wells. Meanwhile, Cisco discovers that he, too, was affected by the dark matter of the Particle Accelerator and must come to terms with his newfound powers. As Barry struggles to juggle life as a hero, he opens his heart to Patty Spivot (Shantel VanSanten), a spunky detective paired with Joe West, but realizes just how hard it is to find happiness when the lives of everyone you love are at stake. He finds some solace in the companionship of his father, Henry Allen, who was freed from a wrongful life sentence… but when Zoom kills Henry before Barry’s eyes, Barry’s newfound stability is shattered.
Blinded by anger, Barry unwittingly plays into Zoom’s game and uncovers the evil speedster’s true goal: to destroy all Earths in the multiverse. In the race of his life, Barry ultimately gets the upper hand against Zoom and defeats his nemesis. But unable to celebrate victory, Barry makes a world-shaking decision and speeds back in time to the night his mother died to stop Reverse Flash from killing her, irrevocably changing his past and redetermining his future.
