Former The Flash cast member Carlos Valdes has chimed in on whether he will make a guest appearance on the Arrowverse show's upcoming ninth and final season.
"I just don't know," the actor told TVLine when asked if he would be stopping by Central City to visit Team Flash before The CW show's final run concludes. However, Valdes coyly added that he "can't imagine a scenario" where his character, Cisco, doesn't appear at least once in Season 9, whether it was on set with the rest of the cast or via a quick FaceTime cameo.
Following his Arrowverse debut in Arrow Season 2, Valdes appeared as a main cast member of The Flash in the role of Cisco Ramon/Vibe, who provided tech support for the Scarlet Speedster and the rest of Team Flash. He departed The Flash midway through the seventh season but returned for the season finale, which saw Cisco officiate the West-Allen vow renewal. Since then, the character has been living off-screen in Star City and working for A.R.G.U.S. as the Director of Technology and Science.
The Flash Season 9 Is Packed With Arrowverse Alums
If Valdes does return as Cisco Ramon, he will be one of several Arrowverse alums making an appearance during The Flash Season 9. So far, actors confirmed to be reprising their respective Arrowverse roles include Javicia Leslie as Ryan Wilder/Batwoman, Andy Mientus as Hartley Rathaway/Pied Piper, Nicole Maines as Supergirl's Nia Nal/Dreamer and Sendhil Ramamurthy as Ramsey Russo/Bloodwork. Stephen Amell, David Ramsey and Keiynan Lonsdale will also appear as Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, John Diggle/Spartan and Wally West/Kid Flash, respectively, with a first look at their Arrowverse return released in January 2023.
The Flash Season 9 will begin with Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) attempting to reconnect with his wife Iris (Candice Patton) while facing a threat to the entire world. The Scarlet Speedster and Team Flash will be forced to save Central City one last time as they are confronted with a deadly group of Rogues as well as a deadly new adversary who challenges Barry Allen's heroic legacy. Joining Gustin and Patton for The Flash's farewell season are Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow, Danielle Nicolet as Cecile Horton, Kayla Compton as Allegra Garcia, Brandon McKnight as Chester P. Runk and Jon Cor as Mark Blaine / Chillblaine, with Jesse L. Martin's Joe West appearing in a recurring capacity.
The ninth and final season of The Flash premieres on The CW on Feb. 8.
