Development

In April 2020, series star Grant Gustin said there had been discussions about renewing the series through a ninth season, but those were stalled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [40] In January 2022, when the eighth season was in its mid-season hiatus, Gustin signed a one-year deal for 15 episodes for a ninth season, with his salary increased to $200,000 per episode. [41] On March 22, 2022, The CW renewed the series for a ninth season. [42] On August 1, it was announced that it would be the final season of the series, with an abbreviated 13-episode order. [43] Showrunner Eric Wallace stated that the cast and crew had originally expected the series to end with the eighth season, but after the ninth season was ordered, Wallace rewrote the season eight finale to not be a series finale. [44]

Writing

Prior to learning that the ninth season would be the series' last and that it would have only 13 episodes, Wallace created additional storylines he hoped to include in the ninth season and a potential tenth season. These would have included a wrap-up to Legends of Tomorrow , [45] the appearance of Max Mercury, [46] an original storyline titled The Forever War, [47] an adaptation of the Blackest Night storyline, [47] and a storyline featuring the Justice League fighting Despero in another alien invasion. [47] After the final 13 episodes were ordered, Wallace's plans for the 200th episode were moved to the series finale. [45]

Main cast members Gustin, Candice Patton, Danielle Nicolet, Kayla Compton and Brandon McKnight return as Barry Allen / The Flash, [41] Iris West-Allen, [48] Cecile Horton, [49] Allegra Garcia [1] and Chester P.

[51] In October 2022, Jon Cor was promoted to series regular for the season. [52]

Danielle Panabaker, who portrayed Caitlin Snow and Frost in previous seasons, was reported to be returning, [1] but was later confirmed to be playing a new character whose identity was later revealed in the second episode. [53] Ahead of this, Panabaker stated that this character would be called Snow at the beginning of the season; [54] Snow was later revealed to be using the name Khione. [55] Carlos Valdes was unable to reprise his role as Cisco Ramon / Vibe for the finale due to scheduling conflicts with his starring role in the Hulu series Up Here . [56]

Katee Sackhoff, who played Amunet Black in the fourth season, expressed interest in returning for the ninth season, but wasn't invited back to the show for reasons unknown, which Sackhoff theorizes as some involved in the show's production not liking her. [57]

Filming

Filming began on September 14, 2022, [58] and concluded on March 6, 2023. [59]

Release

The season premiered on February 8, 2023, [1] and the finale aired on May 24, 2023. [60]
