Getting back to our guest announcements and we’ll be announcing two very exciting guests later today!
We’ll be announcing two new guests from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Both guests played droids that featured in the film.
Next year will mark the 40th anniversary of the Star Wars franchise and you can expect us to announce lots of Star Wars guests in the coming months especially with 2017 drawing closer.
I’m looking forward to revealing who both of these guests are!

Ever since Jesse Quick (Violett Beane) and Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) were introduced to each other in last season’s episode “Trajectory”, fans of The CW’s popular series The Flash have speculated that the two characters could become more than friends. In our recent interview with Beane we asked her how she would describe the feelings Jesse has for Wally.
Beane said:
“I definitely think that there’s a little something there. I think they were getting somewhere last season and then they [Jesse and Harrison Wells] went back home. I think you’re going to see a little bit of that in the next episode for sure. The next episode’s going to be a big one.”
You can listen to this extract from the interview below:
Jesse and Wally were re-acquainted in last week’s episode “Magenta” and it sounds like the next episode will give both characters more screen-time with each other.
The Flash airs on The CW on Tuesdays at 8/7c.
Thoughts on this report? What developments are you hoping to see in Jesse and Wally’s relationship in The Flash?

Last week we had the opportunity to interview The Flash actress Violett Beane after the episode “Magenta” aired. In the interview we talked to her about returning as her character Jesse Quick, playing the character as a speedster and Jesse’s superhero costume revealed in the episode.
On her experience playing Jesse as a speedster for the first time, Beane said:
“All of last season I was sort of just waiting and hoping, expecting it to happen. So when this finally happened I was absolutely ecstatic. It was one of the best feelings putting on the suit and just running in general. All of that. I mean, I think that anticipation building up, for not only the fans but myself, ultimately led to an amazing reveal and I was just so excited and I hope that that totally reads [on screen].”
On seeing the costume she would be wearing for the first time:
“I was pretty excited. We went back a couple of times and made some alterations and things like that but ultimately I absolutely love it and putting it on is a feeling like no other. You actually feel like a hero and it’s kind of surreal but it’s awesome and I just hope I get to wear it more this season.”
You can listen to the above extracts from the interview below:
I then asked Beane about whether the suit felt comfortable or uncomfortable to wear. She said:
“It’s really tight red leather so comfortable isn’t really the word I would use, but it sort of moulds to your body the more you wear it, like Grant’s [Gustin] is pretty much like a second skin because he’s been wearing the suit for three years. Even just in the one episode the more I wore it the more it sort of melded to me. It’s definitely pretty constricting [as] you have to work around it when you’re running. They do build it so that the things you’re doing, the stunts and things, running, all of these moving actions that you’re doing they build it around that so they think about that when they’re building it. It’s still leather and leather works in certain ways and doesn’t in others.
The more you wear it it does get more comfortable and when you’re actually in the moment and acting, doing the scenes, you’re not thinking about how uncomfortable it is.”
You can listen to this extract from the interview below:
“Magenta” also gave viewers some big character development between Jesse and her father Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanaugh). I took the opportunity to ask Beane about getting to develop the relationship in such a big way in this episode. She said:
“I really enjoyed doing those scenes with Tom. I love doing scenes when it’s just two actors. It’s a lot more intimate and you actually have time to get into the meaning of it all. The big scenes in S.T.A.R Labs- they’re fun because everyone’s there but you’re kind of just throwing information at the audience at that point. It is really awesome to get to do those scenes and Tom’s great. He’s been awesome to work with so that’s been pretty amazing. I love developing our on-screen relationship. I think it’s really important that Wells has this moment in this scene to sort of step back and realise that she’s an adult now and she can handle situations and maybe people need her to be a hero and if she wants to be then why would he stop her?”
