With the pilot episode debuting in less than one month, The CW Network has released a new featurette for The Flash, along with a brief video interview featuring series star Grant Gustin.

The Flash executive producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg reveal that fans of the DC Comics will be surprised at how early certain villains appear on the show, as they tease the Rogues Gallery they have to draw from. We also see new footage of the villainous Weather Wizard, who appears in the pilot episode, while the executive producers tease how much of an influence Geoff Johns' "Rebirth" comics had a big influence on the series. Check out the featurette, along with Grant Gustin's interview where he reveals how excited he is to play Barry Allen.

After a particle accelerator causes a freak storm, CSI Investigator Barry Allen is struck by lightning and falls into a coma. Months later he awakens with the power of super speed, granting him the ability to move through Central City like an unseen guardian angel. Though initially excited by his newfound powers, Barry is shocked to discover he is not the only "meta-human" who was created in the wake of the accelerator explosion - and not everyone is using their new powers for good. Barry partners with S.T.A.R. Labs and dedicates his life to protect the innocent. For now, only a few close friends and associates know that Barry is literally the fastest man alive, but it won't be long before the world learns what Barry Allen has become...The Flash.
