Javicia Leslie is Red Death in the final season of TheFlash.
The CW has been steadily cutting back on a number of its Arrowverse shows. While the likes of Naomi, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, and the Javicia Leslie-led Batwoman all faced the axe, The Flash – which is one of the longest-running shows at The CW – gets to wrap up with a ninth and final season. The show’s star, and titular hero, Grant Gustin will have his chance to finish up his story, and as previously reported, Leslie will be joining him on set in a dangerous role.
When news broke that Leslie would join the cast of The Flash, the question of who exactly she played remained. However, that mystery has been dispelled as the actress will not be playing just any Arrowverse character, but the Red Death. A video from the set of the final season has shown Leslie in her Red Death costume alongside co-stars Gustin and Paul Anthony.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY As the final season of The Flash wraps with all its speedy events, we will be having more than our fair share of Leslie on camera. Despite no story details from Warner Bros. TV and The CW, Leslie will be pulling off a double character duty in this final season. The return of Batwoman for the final season of The Flash would not be the first time Ryan Wilder appears on the series.
Whether or not Leslie’s character will be the big bad villain from the comics remains to see, but it would certainly be interesting to see her switch between characters while following the story to see how the Red Death arrives. Leslie’s appearance as the Red Death in the series would also mean that the origins of the villainous character would also need to be altered from what is known in the comics.
The ninth and final season of The Flash will air on The CW in 2023. In the meantime, check out a promo for the show's eighth season below:
