While DC comic book fans are disappointed that Wally West will no longer be featured in the DC TV series, Lonsdale added that this will not be "a total goodbye or a 'see you never'" type of scenario as he will likely reprise his role on guest episodes.
For now, the "Insurgent" movie actor will be appearing in the premiere episode of "The Flash" in its fifth season.
Wally West made his live-action debut in the second season of "The Flash" as Joe West's long-lost son and Iris's younger brother from Keystone City. Wally became a speedster after being in contact with Savitar and adopted the codename Kid Flash to help Barry Allen defend Central City from metahuman threats.
Kid Flash left Team Flash in the fourth season as he felt out of place among his peers and decides to go on a soul-searching trip. Wally was then recruited by Rip Hunter to return with him to the Legends to stop the Darhks from releasing the time demon, Mallus from destroying time and space.
