The Flash debuted its newest season in late 2021 with the five-episode Armageddon crossover, featuring other Arrowverse stars.

Gustin is supposedly getting a large raise for the renewal, with his present income believed to be about $200,000 an episode, as well as he’s topped his involvement with a new season at 15 episodes. provided that the CW is now for sale, it’s uncertain exactly how this might potentially impact new contracts as well as salaries going forward.

It’s not a shock that Gustin would be back for season 9 of The Flash. Back in 2020, Gustin had gone on Smallville alum Michael Rosenbaum’s podcast, Inside of You, where they discussed the possibility of more seasons. Gustin made it noise like fans might look ahead to more, however it was uncertain since of the pandemic. He said:
“The conversations really had started already for adding a prospective eighth as well as ninth (season), however then this pandemic happened, as well as whatever has stopped. We don’t understand when we’re back, as well as I don’t understand when we’re going to continue the renegotiation talks.”
While it’s no trick that the pandemic has greatly impacted both filming schedules, season 8 kicked off last November as well as brought fans the legendary “Armageddon” event, however no concept on whether season 9 was on the table. other OG Flash characters Jesse L. Martin (Joe West), Candice Patton (Iris West), as well as Danielle Panabaker (Caitlin Snow) agreed to new Flash offers last year, however it didn’t specify if that included season 9.
Will A season 9 Be The Last season as part of the new Deal?

There are a great deal of rumors floating around that a ninth season of The Flash could be the last, as well as honestly, it’s a solid run. Arrow ended in season 8 while other shows last much longer (Smallville wrapped after 10 years while Supernatural went on for a record 15 years). Gustin himself stated on inside of You that playing Barry Allen did take away from some other jobs he had been interested in. He said:
“I’m extremely conscious particularly in specific moments of exactly how lucky I am as well as exactly how different things might have gone up up until this point. (But) there’s lots of things I that I feel like I’ve missed out on. The past four hiatuses now, I’ve had a hiatus job that has fallen with since of The Flash. There’s a great deal of other chances available that have (gone away) since of arranging conflicts.”
However, Gustin realized that his words might have been misconstrued. soon after being on Rosenbaum’s podcast, he talked to Entertainment Tonight and clarified things, saying:
“I can definitely see myself doing more than just the one (season) that I have left on this present contract. seven (seasons) is it for most of the cast actually, however I believe it would be fantastic if we can continue after that. I may never have a task this awesome again, that this many people really tune in to watch, so I’m not gonna take it for granted.”
You can continue to watch season 8 of The Flash on the CW when it begins once again on March 9. seasons 1-7 are currently on Netflix.
