The CW only recently confirmed that The Flash would launch on US television on Tuesday, October 7 at 8/7c.

John Wesley Shipp - who previously portrayed The Flash in a cult '90s series - has been cast in the new adaptation, recurring as Barry's father.

Candice Patton, Jesse L Martin and Tom Cavanagh will also appear in the series, from the team behind Arrow.

Executive producer Greg Berlanti has told Digital Spy that the spinoff will have more of a "sci-fi bent" than its parent series.
