I don't know the actor, so I'm going to wait and see.  Though, what's up with casting dudes with dark hair to play Barry Allen?  He was a blond in the comics.


I was surprised about that too.  Then again, they cast Jason Momoa as this guy:



So I'm guessing that they're trying to go by the actor's ability to fit the role, and not just physical characteristics.  Hopefully that will pay off!  Personally, I'm already liking this version of the Flash.

Momoa is part Hawaiian, and they have reportedly incorporated that aspect into Momoa's portrayal.

True, it is more about portrayal.  However, they've dyed actors' hair before to fit the look of a character.  They dyed Christopher Reeve's hair for Superman and Helen Slater's hair for Supergirl.  But, they've never cast a blond or dyed the actor's hair from John Wesley Shipp to the current guy on TV and this guy.

I still think Jason Momoa is gonna steal the show on this one. He looks like he's just having so much fun.

Every scene he's laughing or making jokes. He will definitely be good. I think WW will be good in it too though. Grin

People aren't really following the characters perfectly in the comic book movies(and shows) of late, but I normally don't mind, as long as they portray the character well. Also, there are times of versions of characters, especially Aquaman.
