Barry Allen / Flash | Grant Gustin | 1–present | – | – | |
Grant Gustin portrays Barry Allen / Flash,[1] a socially awkward Assistant Crime Scene Investigator for the Central City Police Department that also moonlights as the superhero Flash. In season one, Barry was a traumatized child when his mother was murdered by the Reverse-Flash and his father was framed for the crime. Barry was subsequently adopted by Joe West and spent his whole life trying to discover what really happened that night. Moments after an explosion at the S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator, Barry is struck by lightning in his laboratory and doused by chemicals affected by the accident. When he recovers from a nine-month coma, he has superhuman speed. He uses his new powers to fight crimes and hunt other metahumans in Central City as the masked superhero known as the Flash, while trying to unravel the mystery of his mother's murderer's identity for his father's sake. Barry has long harbored feelings for Iris since childhood but kept them to himself and yet eventually reveals his feelings, leading to complications regarding Iris' relationship with Eddie; however, he learns from a 2024 newspaper in the time vault at S.T.A.R. Labs that he may eventually marry Iris. He also shares a close father-son bond with Joe and often asks for advice regarding his feelings for Iris and also what course of action to take as a hero. Initially however, Barry resented Joe's refusing to believe in the circumstances of Nora's murder and Henry's innocence and as a result Barry was hesitant to accept Joe as his surrogate father, although Joe had come to have this view toward Barry years before. Barry also becomes good friends with Cisco, Caitlin and his idol Dr. Wells who acts as his mentor while on missions, giving him advice on how to adapt and increase his range of powers. However, he later becomes suspicious of Dr. Wells and eventually learns his mentor is actually Eobard Thawne / Reverse-Flash in disguise, leading him to develop a deep resentment toward the imposter. At last, Barry discovers Eobard's plot to use the Flash's speed and the particle accelerator to generate a portal to his own time, while at the same time Barry can travel back to the night of his mother's murder and prevent it. Barry agrees but is warned by his older counterpart not to interfere and instead chooses to fight the Reverse-Flash and stop him from returning to the future. He is almost killed during the fight until Eddie sacrifices himself to erase Eobard from existence which causes a wormhole to emerge that Ronnie also stops but at the cost of his own life. In season two, Barry becomes reclusive following the deaths of Eddie and Ronnie, but a near-death experience convinces him to work with his friends again. He also discovers a recording left containing Eobard's confession to Nora's murder which allows Henry's freedom. Barry later becomes the target of various metahumans working for the enigmatic speedster Zoom and is confronted by Jay Garrick, a speedster from Earth-2 who also operated as the Flash and informs him that Zoom seeks to kill Barry in order to be the only speedster in the multiverse. He also struggles to move on from hunting the Reverse-Flash as it has been his life's driving goal since childhood but eventually realizes that hating Eobard won't let him move on with his life and chooses to forgive his nemesis. Having moved on from Iris on good terms, Barry sparks up romance with partner Detective Patty Spivot; they later decide to separate after Patty learns of Barry's secret identity before leaving Central City, as they think that doing so will keep her safe. On the other hand, Barry also grudgingly works with Dr. Harrison "Harry" Wells of Earth-2 due to his role in creating Zoom, and eventually accepts him as an ally for the sake of an innocent's life after Barry learns that Zoom kidnaps Harry's daughter. Barry later encounters a younger version of Eobard, one who has yet to murder his mother, but also learns that any attempts to alter events he has caused will alter timeline too significantly and is forced to let him go and accepts that he will face Eobard repeatedly from this point onward. After befriending Harry's daughter and escaping Earth-2 with her, Harry, and Cisco, Barry is grief-stricken following Jay's apparent murder by Zoom. However, Barry and the team later discover that Zoom is Jay himself, needing Barry's speed to cure himself from his terminal illness caused by his usage of the Velocity drugs. In order to get himself faster to stop Zoom, Barry travels back in time to the moment he is apprehending Hartley Rathaway, so that he can ask Eobard — who disguises as Harrison Wells then — for help, feeling that his long-time archenemy will be willing to do so; in the process, Barry slightly alters the timeline resulting in Hartley becoming his ally. After sacrificing his powers to save Joe's son Wally from Zoom, Harry offers to help Barry recreate the events that gave him his speed, but he disappears after the particle accelerator's explosion. Gustin portrays the Earth-2 version of the character, who is not the Flash but also works as a CSI at Central City Police Department in addition to a PhD graduate. He is married to Iris but is despised by Joe, and his mother is alive and remains happily married to his father.[2] He is insecure and more awkward than his Earth-1 counterpart, but after learning that his counterpart is a hero, he is inspirited to try to help those in need. He is based on the DC Comics character Barry Allen / Flash.

When Hunter forces Barry to give up his speed in exchange for Wally's life, he tries to kill Barry but Caitlin begs him not to and Hunter, who is genuinely in love with Caitlin, obeys and yet abducts her and brings her to Earth-2. After meeting her doppelgänger, and almost being murdered by her, Zoom takes Caitlin back to Earth-1 so she can watch as he conquers it just like he did Earth-2. Hunter has also tried to manipulate her into turning evil like Killer Frost did, trying to convince Caitlin she has a darkness just like she did. However because of Hunter's love for Caitlin she is able to sway him away from killing people, much to his own chagrin. Panabaker portrays the Earth-2 version of the character, the villainess Killer Frost, who is married to Deathstorm (Ronnie Raymond of Earth-2) and is later grief-stricken following his murder by Zoom.

Carlos Valdes portrays Cisco Ramon / Vibe,[6] a mechanical engineering genius. In season 1, Cisco is the youngest member of the team of scientists at S.T.A.R. Labs who has a very relaxed and comedic wit. Cisco also has a tendency to nickname the metahuman villains they face, some of whom actually do adopt these names for themselves, and develops equipment and arsenal for Barry Allen and his vigilante allies. He especially forms a friendly bond with Ray Palmer (the Atom) because of their genius intellects and shared tendency to nickname enemies, and is an admirer of Dinah Laurel Lance (Black Canary). Cisco is on bad terms with his brother Dante Ramon, the family's favorite despite the most emotionally insecure. Despite his close friendship with Barry, Cisco is also afraid of the metahumans and fears that his friend may go rogue like his enemies. He develops various measures including cryonic and heat guns to counter the Flash’s powers, but they are eventually stolen by criminals Leonard Snart and Mick Rory as means for them to against the Flash. Although he is considered a surrogate son of "Harrison Wells"/Eobard Thawne, he is initially the first person to discover Wells' true identity for which he is killed until Barry resets the timeline; yet, Cisco retains the memories of the events that led to his murder. Cisco learns from Eobard that this is because he was also affected by the particle accelerator's explosion and thus is now a metahuman, having an ability to see into alternate timelines and realities and would develop other powers, but is afraid of what may happen because of them. In season 2, Cisco is hired by Central City Police Department as its technical advisor and metahuman task force's armourer, building various means for the police to counter super-criminals. He frequently works with Joe West in combating them. Also in season 2, Cisco can see where other metahumans from Earth-2 are located and what they're doing, usually by touching something of their possession, but is not yet in full control of his new abilities. Martin Stein is the first to have discovered Cisco's secret, but later he is forced to reveal his powers to the rest of the team because of Harry Wells of Earth-2, adopts the codename "Vibe", and eventually receives a retrofitting visor from S.T.A.R. Labs that can help better control of his sensory ability. Cisco also struggles to trust Wells due to his experience with Eobard, but ultimately with his new powers he discovers that Wells needs the team's help for rescuing his own daughter, and thus recognizes that Wells is not like Eobard but a loving father. Despite of it, he still cannot get along with Wells as the result of the contrast of their personalities, and has even admitted that Eobard was a nicer guy. He dates a local espresso barista, Kendra Saunders, but the couple is later separated following the discovery of Kendra's heroic destiny as Hawkgirl. After an encounter with his corrupt Earth-2 doppelgänger, Reverb, Cisco fears that he is on the path to becoming as villainous as his counterpart. However, because of the escalating threats from Zoom, Cisco tries to harness his powers for heroic purposes as Barry. Cisco also meets his brother's Earth-2 doppelgänger, Rupture, after Zoom sees Cisco as a threat and frames him for Reverb's death. Valdes portrays the Earth-2 version of the character, the villain Reverb. He works for Zoom along with Killer Frost and Deathstorm before he—along with Deathstorm—is killed by Zoom.[2] Reverb has more experience and control of his powers than his Earth-1 self, which has been proven when he has even been aware of Vibe's existence and powers before the latter appears on Earth-2; in addition to having the same sensory ability, he can manipulate sonic vibrations to create powerful shock waves of considerable strength, thus implying Vibe's own progressing abilities. It is implied that Reverb's power level surpasses both Killer Frost and Deathstorm, as they are intimidated by him. His own visor technology is obtained by his Earth-1 counterpart following his death, which Harry later uses its components to modify Vibe's own visor. He is based on the DC Comics character Vibe.

Six months later, Wells mentors Barry to help develop his new powers as the Flash. However, Wells turns out to be faking paralysis while secretly removing any opposition and covering his tracks. He is eventually revealed to be Eobard Thawne (portrayed by Matt Letscher),[8] otherwise known as the Reverse-Flash, the Flash's speedster nemesis from the future and Eddie Thawne's distant descendant. Being the one who murdered Nora Allen after a failed attempt to kill Barry as a child, Eobard lost his connection to the Speed Force and becomes stranded in the 21st century. This forced Eobard, after murdering and assuming the identity of the real Harrison Wells and, to build the particle accelerator and orchestrate the events that would turn Barry into the Flash, in order to use Barry's connection to the Speed Force to create a wormhole and return to his time period, all while pretending to be paraplegic in order to deflect suspicion. However, Barry foils Eobard's plan to return to the future, resulting in the two speedsters engaging each other again. As the Reverse-Flash attempts to kill the Flash, Eddie sacrifices himself to erase Eobard from existence. Season two reveals that Eobard left S.T.A.R. Labs to Barry in the event of his death, along with a recorded confession to Nora's murder that would clear Henry Allen of all charges. Later, it is revealed that Eobard still exists due to time remnants of the Speed Force forever protecting him and linking to the timeline. Eventually, when the S.T.A.R. Labs team encounter a version of Eobard from an earlier time, he acquires all of the knowledge he possessed during season one.

However, after Barry's initial defeat by Zoom, the latter extorts a co-operation from Harry in stealing Barry's speed once he develops enough for Zoom to steal in exchange for Jesse's life. After Harry confesses to his collaboration with Zoom, Barry and Cisco decide to travel to Earth-2 with Harry to rescue Jesse. After their mission is complete, both Harry and Jesse seek refuge on Earth-1 from Zoom's pursuit.

He also learns from Cisco, after threatening to kill his brother Dante, that Barry Allen is the Flash. He eventually becomes leader of his crew that Barry dubs the "Rogues". In "Rogue Air", Barry asks Snart to assist him transporting metahumans out of Central City, to Lian Yu. Snart accepted, in exchange for Barry erasing Snart's criminal record. He double-crosses Barry by sabotaging the truck containing Mark Mardon/Weather Wizard, Kyle Nimbus/The Mist, Roy Bivolo/Rainbow Raider, Jake Simmons/Death Bolt and Shawna Baez/Peek-a-Boo. Snart kills Simmons with his cold gun, claiming Simmons owed him money. Mark and Bivolo now owe Leonard, but Shawna and Nimbus escaped. Leonard is later extorted into working for his father Lewis, who plants a bomb inside Lisa's head, but after Team Flash successfully removes it, Leonard kills Lewis out of spite and is arrested for his murder, which he doesn't try to resist. He is later broken out by Mark Mardon to aid him get revenge on Barry but declines and yet warns Barry about Mark's plans.
- The Earth-2 version of the character is the mayor of Central City.[2]
- Amanda Pays portrays Tina McGee, a role she also played on the 1990 television series.[28] A friend of the real Harrison Wells, she is the director of Mercury Labs and the designer of the tachyon device stolen by the Reverse-Flash, which allows any object to move at the speed of light.
- Dominic Purcell portrays Mick Rory / Heat Wave, an arsonist and accomplice of Leonard Snart who, in contrast to his partner, uses a heat gun developed by Cisco Ramon capable of burning almost anything. However, Mick's obsession for maximum destruction and failure to think causes tensions between him and Snart, who has even been tempted to kill him.[27]
- David Ramsey portrays John Diggle / Spartan, a member of Oliver Queen's team and best friend to Oliver. Ramsey stars as the character on Arrow.[29]
- Emily Bett Rickards portrays Felicity Smoak,[30] a friend and love interest of Oliver Queen, and also a one-time love interest of Barry Allen. Rickards stars as the character on Arrow.
- Patrick Sabongui portrays David Singh, the Central City Police Captain[31] and superior of Barry, Joe, Eddie and Patty.
- Sabongui also portrays the Earth-2 version of the character, a criminal.[2]
- John Wesley Shipp portrays Henry Allen, Barry Allen's father. Shipp previously portrayed Barry Allen / Flash in the 1990 television series.[32] Henry was a respectable doctor before he was wrongfully convicted of murdering his wife and incarcerated in Iron Heights Prison after Eobard Thawne frames him. Only his son Barry and later Joe West believe his innocence. Throughout season one, he learns that Barry is the Flash and is proud of his son. Henry serves as Barry's moral conscience to use his powers wisely, thus keeping Barry from being tempted to use his speed for personal gains, such as altering his own past through time travel despite the possibility of bringing Nora back to life. In the season 2 premiere, Henry is released from prison upon the discovery of Eobard's confession to Nora's murder. However, he tells Barry that he's leaving Central City as he believes that his presence could hold back Barry's duties as the Flash. He returns later in the season to counsel Barry and offer encouragement after his son's disastrous fight with Zoom before departing once again.
Season Two
- Violett Beane portrays Jesse Chambers Wells, based on the DC Comics character Jesse Quick. Jesse is the daughter of Harrison Wells from Earth-2 and is a college student who gets caught in the battle between the Flashes (Jay Garrick and Barry Allen) and Zoom.[33] Zoom abducts Jesse and threatens her safety to force Harry to obey his demands. Harry and she later seek refuge on Earth-1 to escape from Zoom. Jesse is a science prodigy, and her father occasionally acknowledges that she is much smarter than he is. She later leaves Central City for Opal City, determined to find her place on Earth-1, but returns after her father is kidnapped by Griffin Grey. Jesse works with the S.T.A.R. Labs team and provides her own expertise in biology and other fields of science in place of Caitlin, who has been taken by Zoom. When Barry disappears by the dark matter Harry attempted to infuse within Barry to restore his speed, Jesse and Wally are affected by the dark matter released.
- Teddy Sears portrays Hunter Zolomon / Zoom,[34] a serial killer from Earth-2 who gained his powers from the particle accelerator explosion on his Earth. After consuming the drug Velocity-6, his lightning turns blue, rendering him sick and dying in the process. In addition to his villainous role as the rogue speedster Zoom, Hunter masquerades as Jay Garrick, a heroic speedster known as the Flash who is Zoom's archenemy, through time travel. Hunter uses his benevolent alter-ego to gain Barry Allen's trust and trains him to be faster, so that he can steal Barry's speed as Zoom when he is ready but in the process he inadvertently turns Barry into a formidable adversary whom Hunter eventually fears. Tony Todd provides the voice of Zoom.[35] On choosing Todd to voice the character, executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said, in season one "with the Reverse-Flash, we just modulated Tom Cavanagh’s voice, and this year we wanted to do something a little bit different [for Zoom]. Part of the mystery of the season is who or what is underneath the Zoom outfit, and so we wanted to do something like James Earl Jones as Darth Vader — this iconic voice coming out of this mask."[35]
- Sears also portrays the Earth-1 version of the character, who is not a speedster.
- Shantel VanSanten portrays Patty Spivot, based on the DC Comics character of the same name. She is Detective Joe West's new protégée and partner and is the only member of his new metahuman task force at CCPD besides Cisco Ramon. She is also a love interest of Barry Allen.[36] Her father was murdered by Mark Mardon during a bank robbery prior to the particle accelerator's explosion, leaving Patty determined to stop metahuman criminals in remembrance of him, and she becomes a detective under Joe. Despite her father's murder, she does not hate metahumans (as the Mardons weren't empowered at the time of her father's death) and she acknowledges the Flash's heroism. However, she believes that having superhuman power brings out the best or the worst in people. It is later revealed that her hatred for Mardon stems from survivor's guilt; when she was a teenager, she was supposed to make the deposit at the bank where her father died. When Patty gets her chance at revenge on Mardon, the Flash persuades her to choose justice over vengeance for her loved ones' sakes. In the episode "The Reverse-Flash Returns", she leaves Central City to pursue her studies in the Forensic Science program at Midway City University, which she previously postponed to investigate her father's murder. She also deduces Barry's secret identity and offers to stay if he confirms it and his feelings for her. Barry, however, admits nothing, not wanting to stop Patty from pursuing her dream. Patty surreptitiously does get Barry to reveal his Flash persona to her as she departs Central City, thus ending their relationship on good terms.
- Vanessa A. Williams portrays Francine West, Iris and Wally's mother and Joe's estranged wife.[37][38] Francine abandoned her family four years prior to Joe taking Barry in, but after being diagnosed with MacGregor's syndrome, she tries to reconcile with her family and to entrust Wally to them before she dies.
