Ashley Rickard's Top might not be the only old enemy returning in Season 7 of The Flash, as showrunner Eric Wallace teased the return of major villain from Seasons 1 through 3 of the series.
While answering some questions for his Matt's Inside Scoop column, TVLine Editor-in-Chief Matt Webb Mitovich was asked if he heard anything about returning villains for the upcoming season of The Flash.
"In addition to the well-spoiled encore by Ashley Rickards’ The Top in Tuesday’s Season 7 opener, showrunner Eric Wallace told me, 'I would not rule out another big villain from the first three seasons — one of my all-time favorites — to appear in Graphic Novel No. 3' (aka the arc following the Mirrorverse)," Mitovich replied. There are currently no other clues as to who the villain might be outside of the fact that they appeared in said first three seasons, although old enemies of the Fastest Man Alive from previous seasons coming back is nothing new for The Flash.
Due to the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Season 6 of The Flash was cut short by three episodes, causing the season to end on a cliffhanger. Season 7 will provide closure to said cliffhanger, as well as continue the Green Lantern storyline started by the series finale of Arrow.
The Flash stars Grant Gustin, Candice Patton, Jesse L. Martin, Danielle Panabaker, Carlos Valdes and Tom Cavanagh. Season 7 debuts Tuesday, March 2 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
