I didn’t really know anything about the flash when I first saw that episode. after watching the flash it made me realize that when Oliver asks that, Barry gets uncomfortable. I mean like sure maybe it’s because all eyes are on him and he is about to lie to them, but still. Poor honey 😢
Kinda glad Grant didn't look like Barry, didn't match his age, but go the part purely based off heart and acting talent..which we now know was such a marvelous decision that we want him to take Ezra Miller's place too!
I've watched all six seasons of The Flash and I still enjoy it, but to be completely honest, there are times when I really miss the magic from the first season. Grant Gustin seems like a very nice guy and I think he brought a lot of that likability to the character of Barry Allen. A big part of what got me hooked on the show at the beginning was how Barry was kind of awkward, nerdy, and maybe even a little bit lonely. He was certainly excited about acquiring his new speed/abilities, but he also seemed genuinely happy about making new friends at STAR Labs. There were a bunch of scenes where Cisco, Caitlin and (oddly enough) even Harrison Wells all spend their off hours together just hanging out and enjoying each other's company. I preferred the fun group dynamic of the early seasons and feel like it's been diluted to an extent over the past few years with the expansion of the cast.
Seems like Emily has chemistry with every actor that comes her way on the main actors of the shows. All people behind scenes show oh she has chemistry with Stephen. Oh she has chemistry with Grant. She’s just likeable person it seems. I wish I was likeable like that with people.
Its interesting that Grant actually looks slightly bulkier and more like his Flash tv show self in the screen test as compared to when he appeared on Arrow when he really looked like a scawny kid.
Ruby rose almost fucking died on the batwoman set because the producers were negligent and she suffered a life altering neck injury on set, I think she was well within her right to leave the show
Emily has chemistry with everyone! Also, I love how they had Barry sit down on the desk so he was the same height as Felicity standing up, likely in heels. 😂
I always feel theres that electricity when barry talks to female characters in s1-3. Felicity kara early iris caitlin. By mid to late seasons i feel barry as a character is no longer the young kid and fresh hero but a seasoned and matured individual that no longer looks at the world with sparkle in his eyes. So the early awkward yet adorable interactions he has with cast is so much more enjoyable to me than late seasons
That's exactly what I thought, that barry once acted like a young child and suddenly he became much more mature and serious, glad to know I'm not the only one who noticed
His character arc was already complete by season 3. They were just telling the story after that but he didn't really change aside from accepting what happened with his mother in season 9 with Oliver
Imagine being so iconic in your portrayal of a character meant to only guest start in a few episodes of arrow, that they make the actor who was test screening to be THE FLASH against u because you’re such a likeable character. THATS THE MAGIC OF EMILY BETT RICKARDS.
Actually she was just supposed to be in episode 3, it was Stephen that asked the producers to bring her back again for future episodes of the first season until they eventually made her a series regular in season 2 just because they liked her so much
I’m a big of Grant but no. Why would they make people pay to see Grant if everyone can watch him for free on the CW? The benefit of a movie would be WAY better writers though. Multiverse flash might work.
@@TehStylishone no one says "im not going to see that movie cause the actor i really like can already be watched in a completely different show/movie" thats like saying im not going to pay for the next season of the show i really like because i can already watch the previous season over and over with the same actor
I am enamored with Grant. He is so talented. He brings Barry to life. Makes you feel something. The cast as a whole. They’re spectacular. Every season is well deserved.
I too got recommended . Just when I was trying to forget arrow happened (because it's my favourite tv show). RUclips recommendations are full of surprises
Honestly, Grant just like Emily has a quality that drew me in to the show. I don’t know that I would’ve watched without him. I’m hesitant on the movies with Flash cuz it’s not Grant.
DC executives are idiots really! I mean Henry was the perfect superman and Grant is the perfect flash, they have the actors that can act their heart out and are loved by fans but don't know how to use them!!!
that's because you got 6 seasons + crossovers through with him. If it were someone else more comic accurate from the beginning you'd probably think otherwise.
@@kevinwg02 This doesn't make sense, it was more diversity in the beginning of the show, way more poc, gay characters, better feminism episodes or well wasn't many women tho but they wrote the women very badly in later seasons so...not good rep. The problem was that they focused on things we don't care about, not diversity, diversity was more of in the beginning and done well, the problem is that Eric don't know it's not "team flash" but "the flash" the show is called and they didn't write well at all.
I so wish they released the full screen test with Grant and Emily so we could see the difference between that scene and the one we got in the Arrow show.
Sorry but I’m glad grant didn’t have blonde hair blue eyes it’s a cliche at that point. Grant owned and nailed this role I’m glad they brought iris their chemistry took time but it paid off - this also and let felicity slowly grow with Oliver. He needed this nerdy corky girly of woman who could be sexy at the same time.
Judging by the fact that most comments are recent but this video is 1yr old, and the fact that you heart almost every comment, makes me think you're a small channel that's recently blown up. Congrats on the algorithm loving you and allowing all of us to check out your channel!
I laughed when Grant said “I’m not one of the Hemsworth brothers.” Good indirect reference to Marvel, well done Grant, well done 👍🏻 Although this video made me a little sad because it reminded me when The Flash and all of the CW superhero/Arrowverse shows were good.
It was a perfect decision to cast Grant as the Flash. I really can’t see anyone else in the role. I loved his scenes with Felicity, so many cute moments. I think Felicity was meant to end up with Oliver though. Barry could have ended up with Patty or Caitlin...I would have preferred that simply because I don’t feel like Candice and Grant have that much chemistry.
These 2 would be great in a romantic comedy movie. But i did not mind olicity as well, i started liking them after arrow season 5. Also felicity hair in this video is so beautiful.
“If Felicity loves Barry Allen,then we’ll love him,because the audience knows and loves and trusts Felicity.” Me,after watching Arrow season 4: Yeah,about that...
I feel like they would have been good together, but I think Barry needs someone who is strictly a friend, who is a girl. There was chemistry between him & Caitlyn, but it never dove into it past a simple "kiss", that wasn't actually him. I like that he and Felicity have talked about how good they would be together, but, that they just don't want to be with each other, like that. I think that's important. SPOILER ALERT. On another note, I've been hating Iris as his girlfriend and wife. She was such a supporting role for him, but then they tried to give her her own story line, and I think things have just gotten very messy now. They've added a lot of unnecessary main characters. And their relationship is, first, too perfect; but then the only other option, it seems, is that they are constantly fighting, as she isn't her anymore. I wish they could find a middle ground. Bestfriends fight, lovers fight, husband and wife fight; but apparently them, being all three, don't?

barry within 6 seconds of meeting someone: when i was 11 my mom was murdered
I forgot how quirky he was. he mellowed out a lot by the end.
I know right. Not only that, but along the way, I didn't realize how he's gotten older. Looking back now, he's so young
2:42 “my mom was murdered” that out of context Is hilarious

"I BROKE THE SOUND BARRY-ER" lmfao
I would not be able to say that without laughing
Man it’s crazy to think I’ve been watching Flash for almost half a decade now ! Man time flys by fast.
For sure man, it’s gone by in a flash
and then Eric Wallace came in and destroyed everything that this show was
Seems like Emily has chemistry with every actor that comes her way on the main actors of the shows. All people behind scenes show oh she has chemistry with Stephen. Oh she has chemistry with Grant. She’s just likeable person it seems. I wish I was likeable like that with people.
she is one of the few arrowverse actresses that is friends with almost everybody
The way Emily Bett always has a great chemistry with everyone. Wow 🙌
Its interesting that Grant actually looks slightly bulkier and more like his Flash tv show self in the screen test as compared to when he appeared on Arrow when he really looked like a scawny kid.
Nikunj Dixit I agree.
It might be because during shooting he might've been in training for the show so he might've lost weight and then gained muscle to do the pilot
And also in Arrow, he stands next to bloody Stephen Amell😂😂
Alan Goleac that’s exactly what i was thinking 😂 anyone’s gonna look like a scrawny kid next to him
Uh... Look at grant gustin's recent Instagram post. He helluva swole now
Oh my lord, Grant really can’t tell the difference between himself and Barry😂
where tf did those dialogue writers go, those screen test writers were built different.
Not really
Still remember the days when these starting episodes of Flash and arrow were aired. Those days were glorious as well as the episodes.
Berlanti: An actor you can build a show around
Ruby Rose:
i cant even right now. just here, take my like. you've earned it.
Too soon mate , too soon 😂😂😂
Ruby rose almost fucking died on the batwoman set because the producers were negligent and she suffered a life altering neck injury on set, I think she was well within her right to leave the show
The Arrowverse was so simple back then
Emily and Grant so young! Damn.
Emily has chemistry with everyone!
Also, I love how they had Barry sit down on the desk so he was the same height as Felicity standing up, likely in heels. 😂
Grant did such a great job with the character and that’s the hardest part finding someone else to take over the character in a movie.
'I broke the sound BARRYier'
you went and did it you madlad/madlass
Come on. Who DOESN'T love Grant as Barry Allen?
Some jerks under The Flash movie trailers looks like they hate Grant 💀💀💀
Grant does SUCH a fantastic job playing The Flash!!! I LOVE his portrayal of the character!!
i like that he aknowledges that he doesnt look like barry from the comics
I always feel theres that electricity when barry talks to female characters in s1-3. Felicity kara early iris caitlin.

It was The Flash, then it became The Cecile in it's final seasons.
The flash basicslly ended in season 3 tbh and it came about cecile in season 6
thats not true…. well…. maybe its true….. yeah its rrue
Grant's acting talent made the show

This actor should of been the Flash in the Flash movie you know

@@TehStylishone That's true I just think he is a great actor
Let's be real honest trailers said it best... Both Barry and iris had chemistry with other love interests... But not with each other.
He had the absolute BEST chemistry with Melissa Benoist. Those 2 would have made the CUTEST couple.
100%
Yes I agree but that's not the point if you were trying to make one
He had chemistry with everybody!
You can definitely see how polished their portrayal became over time. The screen test has a vastly different tone from the final product.
I am enamored with Grant. He is so talented. He brings Barry to life. Makes you feel something. The cast as a whole. They’re spectacular. Every season is well deserved.
This is just recommend to me. Now??
SAME!!!!!!!!
Same bro
Same
Same
1:47 Oliver’s face though
The screen test was so good
i've been a fan sense episode 1 season 1. Barry (Grant) is the best actor. He is the perfect actor for The Flash. Im excited for season 7!
It was good up to season 3 with Savitar
In the beginning when the Flash premiered, I wanted Felicity to marry Barry and Sara Lance with Oliver.
*I broke the sound BARRY-er*
Sorta makes you wonder who else was up for the role...
Ralph
Arrow season 1-2 and Flash season 1 is really the best... Nothing else tops it..
Yeah, season 6 of the flash was pretty terrible in my opinion
@@crackasmackin1899 ehh, kinda, i liked pre crisis but the cliffhanger pissed me off
@@crackasmackin1899 it was better than 4 and 5 but it wasn't great
It was perfectly wrotten into the story, too. He becomes the flash earlier in his life than he was supposed to because of a paradox 🤯
Grand Gustin have chemistry with everyone except Patton LoL
😂😂💀
I too got recommended . Just when I was trying to forget arrow happened (because it's my favourite tv show).

I miss arrow too 😭
Honestly, Grant just like Emily has a quality that drew me in to the show. I don’t know that I would’ve watched without him. I’m hesitant on the movies with Flash cuz it’s not Grant.
Don't worry, it doesn't count as cheating
sometimes i forget hes acting
DC executives are idiots really! I mean Henry was the perfect superman and Grant is the perfect flash, they have the actors that can act their heart out and are loved by fans but don't know how to use them!!!
Rich people pretty often don’t care about these things unfortunately.
Only in Henry's case
This just raises more questions about iris's screentest
No
why is this being recommended to everyone now? like whats up youtube algorithm?
i mean... i really don't know? it's not even snowbarry or westallen. (the ship is called barricity lol)
I broke the sound BARRYer
Miss the good old days
Lord I hope the show goes pass season 7. I hope they renew his contract!
its gonna go to at least 8
I honestly couldn’t imagine anyone else as the flash
that's because you got 6 seasons + crossovers through with him. If it were someone else more comic accurate from the beginning you'd probably think otherwise.
i love Grant so much aha he’s such an awesome actor and cool dude
and yet the last season could have been a lot more than it was if you just gave Grant/Barry/The Flash more screentime to his own show.
yeah but diversity check list right ? ;) you gotta have that ^^
@@kevinwg02 This doesn't make sense, it was more diversity in the beginning of the show, way more poc, gay characters, better feminism episodes or well wasn't many women tho but they wrote the women very badly in later seasons so...not good rep.

I think I gotta rewatch The Flash. Grant is a gem.
Miss the Team Flash too. #nostalgic
Grant is such a fantastic actor and person
every time when oliver look at barry is so funny
Grant Gustin will always be the Flash to me!
Wish Oliver was still alive I miss the bromance between Oliver had with barry 😢
Yeah, better (b)romance was only with Oliver and Diggle and Barry and Cisco, after that Barry and Oliver, and then their SO.
Wait wtf, he died!?!?!?
RUclips knew we needed to see this video after getting the Flash cut short because of COVID
lol apparently XD
I’m not the hemsworth brothers. Lol

Tell me about it
Damn i love this show i remember watching it for the first time and i was speechless

I support your unpopular opinion, lets support it together
I feel like they would have been good together, but I think Barry needs someone who is strictly a friend, who is a girl.

SPOILER ALERT.
On another note, I've been hating Iris as his girlfriend and wife. She was such a supporting role for him, but then they tried to give her her own story line, and I think things have just gotten very messy now. They've added a lot of unnecessary main characters. And their relationship is, first, too perfect; but then the only other option, it seems, is that they are constantly fighting, as she isn't her anymore. I wish they could find a middle ground.
